Tinder Plus and Gold discrimination

Tinder charged older Californians more for Plus and Gold subscriptions than it charged younger users — just based on age. If you were 29+ (or 28+ after March 2016) and paid for a Tinder subscription in California, you may have a claim here.

How hard is this claim to file?

Whether you need to do anything depends on whether Tinder's administrator already identified you: identified members just pick how they want to get paid, while everyone else needs to submit a Verification Form before the deadline.

Watch out for

  • The official settlement site tindercalclassaction.com was returning a 403 error — use the portal at veritaconnect.com/tindercalclassaction/Claimant/Payment directly.
  • The opt-out deadline was April 8, 2026 — if you wanted to preserve the right to sue separately, that window has passed.
  • August 18, 2026 is the hard cutoff for both payment selection and Verification Forms — missing it means no payment.
  • Watch out for lookalike scam sites; the only legitimate portals are tindercalclassaction.com and veritaconnect.com/tindercalclassaction.

We prepare — you file on the official site yourself. This is not legal advice and is not an eligibility decision; the administrator and court decide.

How do I file a claim for this settlement?

File directly with Verita Global via the official claim form before August 18, 2026.

  1. 1
    Go to the claim portal at veritaconnect.com/tindercalclassaction/Claimant/Payment.

  3. 3
    If you're not in the system as an identified member, submit a Verification Form through the same portal to prove you purchased Tinder Plus or Tinder Gold in California while meeting the age requirement.
  4. 4
    Complete all steps by August 18, 2026 — that is both the payment method selection deadline and the Verification Form deadline.
  5. 5

Where to act

When you are ready, you open the official claim form yourself. SettleSignal does not file claims or determine eligibility.

You'll need the Claim ID from your notice

The official claim form asks for the Claim ID (or Notice ID) the settlement mailed or emailed to the people it identified. Didn't get one? Here's how to get it:

  1. Check your email (including spam) and any mail from around when the settlement was announced — the Claim ID is usually printed right on the notice.
  2. Still can't find it? Contact the settlement administrator (Verita Global), tell them you believe you're a class member (for example, a customer or patient in the covered period), and ask them to look you up and send your Claim ID.
