In recent years, online dating has become the #1 way to meet someone in cities globally. Whether you’re looking for a short-term relationship, a dream man or woman to spend the rest of your life with, or just a little fun…we’ve made a quick guide on the best dating sites to use in Singapore. Truthfully, most people are lazy these days and it’s rare that you will be approached on the street or be saved from walking onto the road by a mysterious stranger like in those rom-com movies. So, it’s time to think creatively and make an effort to meet someone special online. Here are 9 best dating apps and dating websites to find love or just fun in Singapore.
Top dating apps 2025
1. Bumble
Founded in 2014, Bumble is one of the best dating apps in Singapore today. Interestingly, the ladies are in charge of making the first move with a 97% success rate globally. Does that sound scary? Well, don’t be scared because Bumble makes the first move by women totally normal. Plus, there is something very empowering about a woman writing to the man first. Be sure to write to your matches within 24 hours before they expire. Excitingly, Bumble also boasts two other sections – Bumble BFF and Bumble Bizz – to make friends or meet people in your industry in Singapore.
2. Hinge
Hinge is a fantastic alternative for the women too scared to make the first move. Singles who are looking to find love or something a little more serious can count on Hinge as it’s ”designed to be deleted”. Wonderfully, you can see people who have liked your profile in advance, and for a fee you can message as many as you like per month.
3. Kopi Date
Bored of traditional dating? wondering which dating app is right for you? Well Kopi Date is a unique new dating app curated for organising one-on-one coffee dates to foster genuine connections offline whether that be for love or friendship. Wonderfully, there’s no need for endless boring texting and it’s ideal for those who are tired of digital dating. Although, there’s limited users due to it being new.
4. Coffee Meets Bagel
Coffee Meets Bagel dubs itself the ”dating app for serious daters” in Singapore. The thriving dating website, designed by the Kang sisters in San Francisco in 2011, focuses on finding potential partners by giving women the power and reducing unwatched messages. Definitely, a top-notch dating app to find matches and connect with likeminded individuals.
5. Tinder
Tinder doesn’t really have a great reputation for serious relationships worldwide. Nevertheless, I personally know some beautiful success stories. Whether you live in Singapore or you’re just here travelling, it’s a perfect way to meet singles from around the world (even if it’s only temporary) to explore the city together, go on a cafe date, hit up a rooftop bar, and more…Singapore is your oyster.
6. It’s Just Lunch
It’s Just Lunch is a first-rated online dating platform for busy professionals first launched in 1991. With more than 32 years of expertise in the world of dating, this personalised matchmaking service will surely help you find someone special. The platform believes that a lunch date or drinks after work is the perfect first date to discover if there is chemistry. The average age group on this dating website is from 28 to 45+. Definitely, one of the best dating apps in Singapore for busy workers.
7. Muzz
The world’s largest Muslim dating platform for young Muslim and Arab singles is another great place to meet people. More than eight million singles are looking for love and marriage on Muzz worldwide. Founded in 2015, singles are matched with people based on their profile preferences and information. Whether you want to find the love of your life, try out a few relationships, or even just make some new friends…this dating app is the perfect solution.
8. Grindr
Grindr is the world’s #1 social networking app mostly aimed at boys but perfect for the LGBTQI+ community. It’s a safe place where sexuality is accepted and users can discover and connect with one another. Allegedly, there are more than 168,000 Singapore-based users on Grindr. Particularly, many users from around Asia have claimed their attempt at love has turned into a friendship instead – which is also a beautiful thing.
9. OkCupid
Another app for casual dating or serious commitments is OkCupid. It’s known for comprehensive questionnaires and algorithms that match users based on interests and values. It’s another popular app among Singaporeans. Although, some users have reported scams so be aware.
Note from the editor: As with all dating apps, please always be safe and take measures to protect yourself while online dating. Don’t share personal information such as where you live or your place work, never arrange to meet in a place that is not public for the first time, give a friend the person’s details you plan to meet up with, and so on. Overall, be aware of the dangers of online dating.
