Dating App A/B Testing

A specialist A/B testing practice built only for dating, social discovery, and community apps. We design and run paywall, onboarding, and retention experiments at 95%+ statistical confidence — the same playbook that scaled CRO across 19 dating domains and 120+ web properties.

Paywall A/B testing

Pricing tiers, trial mechanics, and screen architecture tested against revenue per user — typical lift of 15–40%.

Onboarding experiments

Signup-to-first-action flows rebuilt and measured against activation and Day-7 retention, not vanity completion rates.

Retention testing

Match cadence, notifications, and re-engagement loops tested against D7 and D30 — the metrics that compound LTV.

Statistical rigor

Every test ships with proper sample sizing and is called at 95%+ confidence, so you act on signal, not noise.

Why dating apps need a different testing approach

Generic CRO advice breaks down in dating products. Liquidity, match quality, and intent all distort the funnel, so a "best practice" onboarding flow can quietly suppress activation while a longer one lifts it. We've run experiments across mainstream, premium, niche, and video-first dating apps — and the patterns that move revenue are rarely the ones a generalist would test first.

Read the weekly teardowns on the Cohort Variant homepage for one real dating-app A/B test every Wednesday, or browse the dating app case studies for the full experiment design and result behind each lift.
