Lunch Actually and Paktor have merged to create the Lunch Actually Paktor Group, aiming to enhance the dating experience for singles across Asia. With a combined 30 years of expertise, these two giants are now united to offer a richer, more dynamic approach to online and offline matchmaking. Their goal? To spark more romantic connections and help singles on their journey to find love.
As a testament to this partnership, the newly merged entity has released the Singles Dating Survey 2024, highlighting key trends and shifts in Singapore’s dating scene. The survey, which gathered insights from over 350 participants aged 18 to 65, reveals significant changes in online dating habits and mindsets.
Singles Dating Survey 2024: Key Findings
The survey revealed growing dating app fatigue, with only 50% of participants still using dating apps. Of those, more than a third have reported reduced usage over the past year, and frustrations are on the rise. Among the key complaints:
- 36% cited the superficial nature of interactions
- 23% were frustrated by fake profiles or scams
- 21% were discouraged by ghosting or lack of response
This dissatisfaction is evident, with 66% of respondents associating dating apps with feelings of disappointment, while 88% admitted to taking breaks from apps due to the lack of authentic connections and a preference for face-to-face interactions.
The survey also pointed to evolving preferences when it comes to choosing a partner. Religion has become a top consideration for women, while men are increasingly open to dating taller women. Additionally, more women now believe that it doesn’t matter who makes the first move, reflecting shifting gender norms in dating.
A New Chapter in Singapore’s Dating Scene
The merger of Lunch Actually and Paktor signifies a new era for singles seeking meaningful relationships. By leveraging their combined strengths, the Lunch Actually Paktor Group will offer a holistic suite of online and offline dating services across six key markets—Singapore, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Thailand, and Indonesia. This includes personalized solutions, relationship coaching, and access to a larger pool of potential matches, increasing the chances of finding the right partner.
To celebrate this perfect match, both Lunch Actually and Paktor are offering exclusive benefits:
- 30% off membership packages for singles who sign up in September and October.
