When VIP makes sense
If you keep running out of messages just as a conversation gets going, or you want to search by city and distance rather than wait for your daily matches, VIP is worth a look. It’s also the way to see who likes you and to rewind a swipe you regret.
Our features page sets out everything in each membership side by side, so you can see exactly what VIP and VIP Plus add before you pick a plan.
VIP: unlimited messages and more
VIP lifts the daily message limit and adds advanced search, members-only chat rooms, private group chats, rewind, see who likes you and priority comments.

VIP Plus: be seen first
Everything in VIP, and then some. You get exclusive matches, your messages and likes jump the queue, and your profile leads the daily suggestions of the people you match with. Boosts and Super Match can be added whenever you like.

Paying for Single Encounters: honest answers
Why can’t I send any more messages today?
Classic membership includes a limited number of messages a day, so once today’s are used up, you can send more tomorrow. Messages from VIP and VIP Plus members are different: you can read and reply to those whenever they arrive. VIP removes the daily limit altogether.
Will my plan renew automatically?
Yes, unless it’s a 12-month plan. The 1-week, 1-month, 3-month and 6-month plans renew at the price you paid. The 12-month VIP and VIP Plus plans end after a year and do not renew.
Which plan is the best value?
Per week, the longer the plan, the less you pay. VIP falls from £14.99 for a single week to £5.82 a week on the monthly plan and £2.33 a week over 12 months. If you’re not sure yet, a shorter plan lets you see how you get on first.
Do I need VIP to meet someone?
No. Classic membership lets you make a profile, get daily matches, swipe and send a limited number of messages a day, which is enough to start talking. VIP is there for when you want unlimited messages and more ways to find people.
Is VIP Plus worth it over VIP?
It depends how much being seen first matters to you. VIP covers messaging and searching. VIP Plus adds exclusive matches and puts your profile, messages and likes near the front, at £15.99 for a week against £14.99 for VIP.
