[#SupportLocal] Bumble Partners with 13 Singapore Small Busineses to Launch A Date Do What Campaign

Bumble, the women-first dating and social networking app recently launched a Date Do What campaign, offering its community in Singapore the opportunity to connect with others in real life (IRL) and over a shared experience for 3 months from 4 July 2022 up until the end of September.

More details of the deals and promotions for the Bumble community are available below.

Following the relaxation of Covid-19 restrictions, 42% of Singapore daters on Bumble prefer to meet IRL for their first dates, while 52% are open to any dates, meaning either IRL or virtually. To help people plan their dates with ease, Bumble is partnering with 13 local businesses under its Date Do What campaign.

Through this collaboration, Bumble hopes to make dating fun and easy for people who are looking to make new connections through the app by providing them with over 13 activities or dining options to choose from, with exclusive discounts and packages curated specially for the Bumble community.

In Singapore, daters on Bumble are keen on in-person experiences, with “Going Out” being the second most used Interest Badge on daters’ profiles. The Bumble community in Singapore also have a wide array of interests — “Sports” is the most popular interest badge adopted by Singapore daters, although many have also used the “Food & Drinks” or “Foodie” badges on their profiles.

Under its specially curated Date Do What campaign, Bumble has identified the following partners to cater to its community’s diverse interests:

• Adventurous: Haus Athletics, Heaven Spot, Hi Roller, Holey Moley, SerendipET Mangrove Kayaking
• Foodie: Awfully Chocolate, Brass Lion Distillery, Little Rogue Cafe, Sago House, Spiffy Dapper, Two Men Bagel House
• Artsy-Fartsy: Chokmah, Splat Paint House

“Bumble exists to empower new connections and foster healthy and equal relationships. Now more than ever, singles are eager to connect in-person as pandemic restrictions are being lifted in Singapore and around the world. Our partnership with local small businesses through Date Do What allows us to provide our Singapore community with personalised date recommendations that play to their passions and lifestyle preferences. This helps create a fun environment for singles to bond with their dates, and hopefully develop meaningful and lasting connections.” Shared Lucille McCart, Bumble’s APAC Director.

“At Bumble, we are also passionate about supporting women-owned businesses. Of the 13 local businesses we are collaborating with for this campaign, more than half are women-owned or women-led, which was really important to us when developing this campaign and is just one more example of how we are committed to empowering women in Singapore and across the globe.” Added McCart.

Besides offering daters a list of recommended date activities, the Date Do What campaign also feature a Date Generator questionnaire to help daters find the perfect date experience. By answering a short list of questions to fine-tune their preferences, daters can get personalised date recommendations from Bumble’s curated list of activities that are uniquely tailored to match their hobbies and interests.

Once they have generated their ideal date, members of the Bumble community will be able to enjoy these curated experiences at discounted rates simply by making reservations on our partners’ booking portal using the exclusive Bumble promo codes provided. For experiences with no reservations needed, daters will only need to show a screenshot of the date generated at the prescribed venue. More information about Date Do What.
