Tinder is mandating users in California verify their profiles using facial recognition technology starting Monday, 7.7.2025, executives exclusively tell Axios. The move aims to reduce impersonation and is part of Tinder parent Match Group's broader effort to improve trust and safety amid ongoing user frustration. The biometric face scan, powered by FaceTec, then confirms the person is real and present and whether their face matches their profile photos. It also checks if the face is used across multiple accounts. If the criteria are met, the user receives a photo verified badge on their profile. So that other people also know he was varified. Tinder stores a non-reversible, encrypted face map to detect duplicate profiles in the future. Face Check is separate from Tinder's ID Check, which uses a government-issued ID to verify age and identity.
>ID check is everywhere in USA while Facecheck is for now only in California where the test run is.
"We see this as one part of a set of identity assurance options that are available to users," Match Group's head of trust and safety
>((Yoel Roth)) says.
"Face Check ... is really meant to be about confirming that this person is a real, live person and not a bot or a spoofed account." "Even if in the short term, it has the effect of potentially reducing some top-line user metrics, we think it's the right thing to do for the business," Rascoff said.
