Tinder Passport Mode
Tinder’s updated Passport mode now appears directly in user profiles, allowing travelers to indicate their intentions to hook up before even arriving at their destination. Users can activate the mode, select a city, and start interacting with locals or fellow travelers before their trip.
Passport mode is a paid feature on the platform available as part of Tinder Plus, Tinder Gold, and Tinder Platinum subscriptions. Tinder also says it’s testing it as a standalone purchase.
“Using Passport mode before your trip is the best way to maximize its potential,” added Dev. “It allows you to make connections, gather local information, and create unforgettable memories before you even board your flight.”
Pranav Dangi, founder and CEO of The Hosteller, highlighted the growing trend of solo travel, noting that Generation Z and millennials are increasingly seeking self-discovery through travel. “Our lodges are designed to foster meaningful cultural connections, allowing adventurers to create lifelong memories,” he said. “Our partnership with Tinder expands this vision, offering solo travelers a resource to safely navigate India’s best backpacking destinations.”
