Every dating app on the market allows you to filter your search by distance.

If you’re looking to meet a woman close by, you search for ladies within a 2-mile radius, if you’re in the middle of bumblefuck nowhere, you might open that range up to 50 miles or so.

In this sense, Tinder is no different, allowing its lustful users to search up to 100 miles away.

But for those truly yearning for romance, 100 miles isn’t enough.

For men on the road, about to make a move, or just interested in shopping outside of their normal proximity limiting window, there is Tinder Passport.

In this article, we’ll teach you how to use Tinder Passport and explain some of the benefits of using the feature.

What Is Tinder Passport?

Tinder Passport is a paid Tinder feature that enables users to change their location so that they might swipe through singles from anywhere in the world.

With Tinder Passport you’re able to swipe in Paris, Brussels, Milan, Mexico City, Buenos Aires, etc.

You name the city and Tinder Passport will take you there.

While Tinder Passport was free for all users during the early stages of the pandemic, it’s not anymore.

To gain access to Passport you’ll have to sign up for Tinder Plus, Tinder Gold, or Tinder Platinum.

To be clear, you can only be in one city at a time. That being said you can change your location as many times as you’d like. Getting bored of New Orleans, no worries, switch it up and head over to Jacksonville.

Keep in mind that depending on your subscription and preferences, users may be able to see how far away you are. You will have the option of hiding your distance based on your subscription and preferences.

How To Use Tinder Passport

Once you’ve subscribed, enabling Tinder Passport is pretty straightforward.

Simply click on your profile’s graphic, open settings, scroll down and click location, and change the location to whichever city you must desire to swipe in.

Why Use Tinder Passport?

What benefit is there in changing your Tinder location?

It can be tempting to virtually jet-set around the globe but if you have no real intention of every going to these places, you’re just wasting your time.

Look, Tinder is to be used as a dating app, not as an app for romantic window shopping.

With this goal in mind let’s dive into the reasons one might use Tinder Passport.

Tinder Passport For Vacation

The average length of a vacation that an American goes on lasts just four days.

If you’re hoping to get lucky romantically, four days doesn’t allow you much time to meet a woman and woo her.

If you really want to have success you’ll have to put in work ahead of time.

That’s where Tinder Passport comes into play.

Let’s say you’re vacationing from San Francisco to LA next month and you’d like to go on a date or two while down there.

Your thought behind this is that you don’t know the city well or anyone down there, so you might as well make a romantic acquaintance that you can have a good time with. And by good time I don’t necessarily mean sex. Having a good time could simply be getting a drink or two at a bar that only LA locals know, going dancing, or simply enjoying a stimulating conversation.

You could try to meet women once you’re already in the city. But why not extend the time available to meet a female by starting the task before even arriving?

So you get to swiping.

In this case you’ll want to be upfront about your visit.

Keep your profile as is, but write add up top what dates you’ll be in LA and that you’re looking to meet someone either to explore the city with or to get romantic with. Being upfront will save you time, and that’s something you’re not in a position to waste.

Once you get to matching and talking, keep the conversations brief. Try to either get her phone number or a TDL within 10 or so exchanges.

Considering that women are likely to flake on a guy that they know they won’t have a long-term relationship with, make sure to set up at least two dates while on vacation — depending of course on how long you’ll be in the city for.

Always be upfront about your vacation. When chatting with a match, always inform her early on that you’ll be in LA for a brief period of time.

If you’re traveling with friends, float the idea of double dating.

Tinder Passport For Research

Before moving there almost always a few things you take into account.

The job market, the culture, the safety of certain neighborhoods, the traffic, etc.

But for some reason, many dudes opt to not research the dating scene in the city or town they’re considering moving to.

If you’re a single man in your late 20s or 30s and are considering moving, checking out the dating scene is a must.

You don’t want to move to a romantically barren wasteland or a town full of sausages do you?

This is where Tinder Passport comes in handy.

Swipe through women to get a sense of the local ladies. Be mindful of their hobbies, political views, and other specs you find important.

If you already know you’re moving, start matching, chatting, and booking dates.

We all know how difficult and lonely it can be to move to a new city. You don’t know where to get good food, have no one to socialize with, and all in all feel pretty lonely.

Figuring out how to use Tinder Passport or Bumble Travel to MegaDate will help you ease into your new surroundings. Life doesn’t look so grim when you have various dates on the horizon.

Use these dates to understand the local dating scene, to explore the city, and just to ward off the loneliness that comes with moving to a new city.

Tinder Passport For The Rural Man

Let’s imagine you live in a rural area or just aren’t satisfied with the women you’re meeting locally.

With Tinder, you have two options.

You can either simply expand your discovery preferences, or you can use Tinder Passport.

If you opt for the former you’ll merely be casting a wider net. Remember that with the free version of Tinder you’re able to expand your discovery preferences to 100 miles. While this means you can swipe through women many towns away it also means that your search isn’t localized.

With Tinder Passport on the other hand you’re able to pinpoint the exact location you want to swipe in.

Let’s say you live in rural Maine, and really want to meet a woman that lives in Portland, Maine. Instead of simply expanding your preferences to include women in Portland and a host of other tiny towns, you can choose to swipe through women that only live in Portland.

When using Tinder Passport in this way, be prepared to travel dozens of miles to meet with women you match with.

The Downfall Of Tinder Passport

Here’s the thing about Tinder and most dating apps.

While we think they’re chiefly used to find love, often that isn’t the case.

When nearly 10,000 millennial college students were surveyed in 2017, LendEDU found that when asked, “why do you use Tinder?” a whopping 44% answered, for confidence-boosting reasons.

Under 30% of users reported using the app for romantic reasons.

The study also found that 71% of users have never used the app to meet up with someone in person.

That’s pretty mind-blowing stuff.

In reality, most Tinder users swipe through the app not for a date Friday night, but for gratification.

Why this is so pertinent to Tinder Passport is that singles become even less likely to meet up with someone they’ve matched with the further away they are.

Before paying for a subscription, get real with yourself. Ask yourself if you’re serious about meeting up with women you’ve matched with. Are you using this app for a quick pick-me-up or because you honestly really want to improve your dating life?

…You Honestly Really Want To Improve Your Dating Life

If you’re so serious about turning your dating life around that you’re willing to move your New Year’s resolution up a few months, then it’s time to subscribe to Tinder.

But one paltry subscription to a single dating app isn’t likely to in itself change your fortunes.

If you struggled to date prior to Tinder you’ll probably struggle after as well.

Tinder — along with just about every other online dating app — is uber-competitive.

It’s mainly because dating apps are sausage fests. 79% of Tinder users are dudes. Imagine walking into a bar with the goal of meeting a woman and being swallowed by a wave of thirsty dudes.

That’s online dating.

So what are you to do?

Your Next Move

Never rely solely on dating apps. Sure, I advise my clients to download and be active on 5 dating apps, but I also demand that they meet women IRL.

When I team up with a single man in search of romance I not only teach him how to dominate the online dating scene, but how to meet women IRL as well.

The men under my tutelage learn how to create profiles worthy of swiping right, how to chat up women online, how to use a TDL, and ultimately how to date women they’ve met online.

I also teach men how to meet women in the real world.

Learning these skills isn’t easy.

That’s why we dig into these techniques over a 12-week course. Via a one-on-one or group meeting every week we gradually work on turning you into the kind of guy every woman wants to date.

But look, I know what you might be thinking.

Not every man has time to put in the work of meeting women.

I get that.

In fact, this understanding led to matchmaking.

Some guys are too busy to mine dates themselves, that’s why we do it for you.

We deploy a team of online and offline recruiters to comb through up to 1,000 women in the city you live in. We then will interview 35-50 of these women ultimately setting you up with 15 women over the course of 6 months (though normally within 3 to 4).
