Feeld, a UK-based dating app aimed at non-monogamous, queer and kinky users, has reported strong sales growth and paid its largest-ever dividend to its founders, as the platform continues to attract users from more conventional rivals.
The company said revenues rose by 24% to £64m, with founders sharing in a record £3.8m dividend following the increase in sales.
International growth
Feeld, which describes itself as a platform "for the curious," said users outside the UK now account for nearly 90% of its revenues, underscoring the app's expansion beyond its domestic market into international territories.
The company attributed its growth to rising interest from what it described as "open-minded people exploring love, desire, and alternative relationships in a safe, inclusive space," positioning itself as an alternative to mainstream dating platforms.
A growing niche market
Feeld operates in a segment of the dating app market focused on users interested in non-monogamy, kink and queer relationships, distinguishing it from larger mainstream platforms. The company's reported financial performance suggests continued demand for dating services catering to these specific communities.
Further details on the company's broader financial results, including profit figures and user numbers, were not included in the available report.
