  • You can cancel Tinder Gold using the Tinder app, the website, your iPhone's Settings app, or the Google Play Store.
  • The exact method you need to use to cancel Tinder Gold depends on how you signed up.

If you're a Tinder power-user, you're probably familiar with Tinder Gold. As Tinder's premium subscription tier, a Gold account lets you see who's swiped right on you, lets you boost your account so more people can see it, and more.

But it's also a bit pricey — a Tinder Gold subscription is $14.99 per month if you're younger than 30 years old, and shoots up to $29.99 if you're over 30. That's more expensive than nearly any streaming service. 

Luckily, cancelling a Tinder Gold subscription is simple. The exact way to do it just depends on how you signed up for Gold in the first place.

1. Open your iPhone's Settings app and tap your name at the top of the screen.

2. In the Apple ID menu, tap Subscriptions.
