TON Dating is the first mini dating app built on the TON blockchain. It launched on June 18 2024 and uses a “selective dating” approach similar to Tinder. The service emphasizes strict moderation and lets users earn $TON for activity.
Creating a Profile#
- Open the TON Dating bot in Telegram and tap Start.
- Enter your name, gender, date of birth, city, a short description, and an Instagram link.
- Upload three photos.
- Complete photo verification by taking selfies in a prescribed pose.
Verification#
Accounts undergo a hybrid moderation process—half automated by artificial intelligence and half manual review. This ensures that bots and anonymous accounts are excluded. Less than three percent of submitted profiles pass moderation.
Subscription & Monetization#
- Women: free membership.
- Men: three subscription tiers:
- 1 month – 2,500 Stars (≈ $50)
- 3 months – 6,000 Stars (≈ $124)
- 1 year – 20,000 Stars (≈ $400)
Payments can be made in $TON on web/desktop or in Telegram Stars on Android and iOS.
$TON Farming#
Active members receive $TON rewards for time spent on the platform. As of August 2024, more than $1,000 worth of $TON has been distributed.
Referral Program#
Users earn 0.22 $TON for each invited friend whose profile is approved. Rewards are credited immediately after the referral’s profile passes moderation. The minimum withdrawal amount is 1 $TON.
Regions#
The service targets users in CIS countries, Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and North Africa.
