What We Know

Hinge was acquired by Match Group (NASDAQ: MTCH) in 2019 for a reported amount that was not fully disclosed but estimated to be in the hundreds of millions. The acquisition was part of Match Group's strategy to expand its portfolio of dating apps beyond Tinder and other existing properties. Prior to the acquisition, Hinge had been growing rapidly and establishing itself as a premium dating app focused on serious relationships. As a result of the acquisition, Hinge never went public as an independent company. Instead, investors who want exposure to Hinge's performance can invest in Match Group, which owns and operates Hinge along with other major dating platforms including Tinder, OkCupid, and Plenty of Fish.
