Are you wondering whether your Tinder match has read your message? While Tinder doesn't turn on read receipts by default, you can buy read receipts bundles and enable them in your chats. This wikiHow guide will answer all of your burning questions about read receipts on Tinder.

How Tinder Read Receipts Work

  • You can buy read receipts on Tinder to see if people have opened your messages.
  • If the person has read your message, you'll see two checkmarks.
  • Turn read receipts on and off in Settings > Manage Read Receipts.

  1. Tinder read receipts allow you to know when your message has been read. If you enable read receipts in the Tinder app, you can see if the other person looked at your message a few hours ago and still hasn't responded, or if they haven't opened it at all.[1]
  2. You can buy one or more read receipts at a time and add them to specific chats. Once you activate the read receipt you've purchased in a conversation, you'll get read receipts for all messages you receive in that conversation only.
    • 1 read receipt = $2.99.
    • 5 read receipts = $15
    • 10 read receipts = $20
    • 20 read receipts = $30

How to Get Read Receipts

  1. You can only buy read receipts within a conversation. Read receipts are not included with any paid Tinder plans.
  2. It's a blue bubble below the last message you sent.
    • If the person you're chatting with has read receipts disabled, you won't be able to buy a read receipt for this conversation.
  3. Choose whether you want to buy an individual read receipt for this conversation or a bundle you can apply to chats with other matches.
    • Once you tap Continue, read receipts will be active in this conversation.
    • If the other person turned off read receipts, you won't see your read receipts if you tried to turn them on. Instead, you get to keep the read receipt bundle and use it in another conversation.

  1. To get here, tap your profile icon in the app, then tap the gear.

    • You can repeat these steps and toggle on the switch if you want to activate read receipts.
