Bumble is all about putting women first.
Its founder and CEO is a woman, the app encourages women to break gender norms, and even requires them to message first… at least until now.
For the longest time what really set Bumble apart from every other app was that women had 24 hours to strike up a conversation or the match would disappear. The onus was 100% on the woman to initiate the conversation as men were unable to. This gave women the power to further choose who they want to chat with and how they want to start the dynamic.
But that all changed with Bumble’s newest feature, Bumble Compliments.
A Bumble Compliment is much more than a regular old compliment.
After a match, most men choose to compliment a woman’s profile — but that’s not what we’re talking about.
Bumble Compliments give men the chance to send a message to a woman before matching.
When you see the profile of a woman you’re feeling, click on the heart on the left of her picture, bio, or prompt response.
Once clicked you’ll be able to send her a 150-character message.
Now that you’ve sent your Bumble Compliment, when your profile pops up in her feed she’ll be able to see that you’ve sent her a Bumble Compliment and be able to read your message.
Bumble claims that:
I’d agree.
Anything you can do to humanize your profile and make you stand out, do it!
Once she reads your profile she has the option of liking you and matching or passing on your profile. If liked, she’ll still have 24 hours to respond before the match expires.
And if you’re thinking that sending a Compliment bumps you to the front of her queue sadly, you’re wrong.
In the real world being nice and giving someone a compliment doesn’t cost a damn thing.
That’s nice entirely the case with Bumble.
Bumble gives users one free Compliment every 24 hours.
Of course, you have the option of purchasing Compliments, but it’s going to cost you.
The price you pay depends on how many Compliments you purchase.
You can purchase 30 Compliments for as little as $2 each coming in at $60 total for 30 Compliments.
Of you can purchase as few as two Compliments for $6 a pop.
As you can see, Compliments can get expensive real quick.
So are Bumble compliments even worth it?
Well, that all depends on how quality a profile you have AND the quality of the message you’re sending.
To help with the former, read this. To improve the quality of the Bumble Compliment you’re sending, check out our best Bumble Compliment examples below.
The best opening messages are ones that pique her interest.
There are a number of ways to do that but my suggestion is to do so by commenting/asking a question about her profile.
This not only shows that you’ve read her profile but also that you genuinely want to get to know her and hints you two maybe even have something in common.
Of course, if she doesn’t give you good material to work with you can always just send her a witty message that will make you stand out.
Here are some real-life examples of Compliments we’d send after looking at some profiles.
Bumble Compliment:
I just watched a documentary about beavers… it was the best damn documentary I’ve ever seen!
Sure this joke may not be funny to you (hell it’s not even funny to me). The thing is she also wrote in her profile that she loves lame Dad jokes. This is one of the lamest I know so I can say I killed this Bumble Compliment example.
Remember to always tailor your comment to her profile if possible. I could have told her another joke or talked about how funny doing so would’ve turned my back on the personality hints she already gave me.
Most Bumble users want you to succeed. They give you the info you need to make them swoon — or to at least send an awesome Compliment.
Studies on studies have shown that women love a man who has a dog. Maybe it’s something about a man being able to take care of a smaller more cuddly creature that makes women break down. Whatever it is, it works. Should you ever get a chance to talk about your dog, take it!
Now that you have 10 Bumble Compliments examples to work with it’s time to go forth and prosper.
