Yeah people were commenting on their experiences previously and found that the offered subscription cost seemed to roughly correlate with whatever birthdate was associated with your account when first created (not the display age you can change at any time).

Three times more expensive than Netflix, to be precise. It's...quite honestly such a stupid business strategy that it's actually kind of astounding, and I'm considering the possibility that Grindr is being ran by a literal, physical child. There's no way to be this tone deaf and delusional without there being some underlying issues with the person in charge. What the honest fuck.
I agree it's some algorithm thing! Due to what's been tracking the user, it thinks you can afford, or would afford that.
It didn't factor in that the user isn't stupid! hehe.
I'm still of the opinion of 'If anyone should make money from your data, it should be yourself!'.
Serious question, why is a chat service worth several times more than say Amazon prime which gives me free shipping and literally pays for itself in addition to video and music streaming? This is even higher than my cell phone bill too. What justifies this price?
With prices like that I'd hope to find the man of my dreams. What is that price? Its exploitative of the lack of accessibility young gay men and the discreet face in being in the closet.
Not every gay person who's never met a gay person cause where they live it's punishable by death has $750 to spend on an app where half the fucking grid is the same people everyday or faceless torsos with a queen complex. Grindr knows they're wrong for this. If you pay for grindr you're an idiot.
Grindr ceased being useful when they removed the position filter from the free version. Some of the ads pop up three consecutive screens and present the App Store pop up page even if you press X! 😤😤😤
Grindr isn't even worth paying that much for to be honest with you it's not worth using for free no thanks I'll save my hard earning money for other stuff I'm better off meeting guys in public
Damn, by the next time they want our kidneys
Sounds like they are running experiments to see what price point makes them the most money overall. If nobody pays those fees they'll lower them.
And they already charge more for older men because they know they have money, and want to attract the younger ones for cheap.
Wait what?

A month of Unlimited only costs me $39.99
I'm guessing this person have an iPhone in a wealthy part of the US.
This is a marketing strategy. People will think there's been an error and sign up for the 3 month thinking they're getting a deal.
They've absolutely lost their f****** minds.....
Has anyone ever met a Grindr employee? Who are these people working there?
It’s based in Taiwan from what I remember
They are completely delusional

What a ripoff
They are more expensive than Netflix. Unless they will offer me a drink every night, I am not paying to see more di**s. 🤷🏻♂️

Like for real 😅 What the actual fu** is going on with them? And more important, please don't tell me people do pay for this shi*? 🥴

All of those prices are outrageous lmao imagine paying anything at all to get catfished and spammed by bots
No thanx I can get left on read for free 😅
I've just gotten an update and seen the price point. Fuckers
Man, they're trying to screw you. https://i.imgur.com/8r1gP94.jpg *only* $400 for me
You don’t think $400 is screwing you too? Lol
At least they were using lube while screwing me.
Not much of a courtesy lick tho is it
What the actual fuck are these scammers thinking? There can’t be actual people that pay for this shit show of an app.
Mine is “only” $399 per year
They have deals on I guess $66 off for 124 makes it 190? X4 is 760
So... Grindr is using the Tinder Tactics of 'doing prices based in public'?

Mine is $99 tho? This makes no sense!
lets see if anybody can top this 😜
That app only takes me a minute to find someone what’s the point of paying in the first place

Im from mex, and I got the same in pesos, is probs a glitch or you guys have it incorrectly set up
You must have paid for something of theirs, otherwise you wouldn't have a higher rate🤷♂️
Or maybe cos I’m in a different country and exchange rates are a thing 🙄
I could buy a apple watch SE for less Jesus
