Tinder will soon expand its facial verification feature to users across the U.S., marking a major step in the dating app’s push for safer connections.
The feature, called "Face Check," was first tested in select markets earlier this year. It requires users to confirm their identity by taking real-time video selfies, which are then compared to existing profile photos using AI-powered facial matching technology.
Verified users receive a visible badge on their profiles, signaling to others that they have completed the process.
According to Match Group, the company behind Tinder, the nationwide rollout begins in late October, with all U.S. accounts expected to have access by early November. Tinder says it will closely monitor adoption rates and user feedback to fine-tune the system.
