How often is a Tinder swipe surge? 

Swipe Surges can happen anytime and any day.

More commonly than not, surges may line up with the following:

  • Festivals
  • Holidays
  • Concerts
  • Sporting Events
  • Sunday Nights
  • Monday Nights
  • Holidays 

Outside these events, the most common days for a surge to occur are Sundays and Mondays.

These two days are most likely chosen due to it being the days people tend to be less busy and so as a result have more time to kill.

What better way to spend those monday blues potentially finding the love of your life.

Will I get more matches when there is a swipe surge?

According to Tinder, you are 250% more likely to to get matcher during a Swipe Surge, and you’ll get into a Tinder conversation 33% faster.

They can last anywhere from a couple of minutes to a few hours – it all depends on the user’s activity levels.

When you respond to the push notification, your profile jumps to the front of all those who aren’t using the feature, so other users will still be able to see your profile first. It’s basically like a free Tinder Boost.

When people respond to a swipe Surge notification, they were primed to do some fast swiping, so make sure your primary photo is one that will catch attention because you’ll have even more competition than usual.
