Match and Jay Shetty Launch New Partnership To Help You Date Differently
Jay Shetty is now Match's Relationship Advisor, offering relationship guidance alongside new in-app features designed to tackle dating challenges
According to Match's 13th Annual Singles in America Study, 20% of singles who are actively dating feel that no one is right for them. Match and Jay are tackling this challenge by reimagining the dating journey from the profile all the way to the first date.
"We're asking daters to focus on what truly matters to them - without falling into the habit of dismissing potential matches," said Shetty. "For some time, I've envisioned a platform where individuals could put dating and relationship guidance into practice. We've created a space on Match where people can authentically focus on themselves and adopt a fresh approach to dating."
Match has integrated Jay's expertise across various product touchpoints, where he will offer guidance on first dates, love, and relationships. With the Date Differently Challenge, members can hone in on their biggest dating obstacle and find the key to overcoming it. Additionally, the launch of the new Core Values feature will help Match members lead with what matters most, ranging from family and faith to compassion and gratitude.
"How we meet, date and form relationships continues to evolve - in partnership with Jay, we hope to address some of the pain points daters have been experiencing, and build for the future," said
