Has anyone here actually tried to buy dating app traffic and seen real signups from it? I kept seeing people talk about scaling fast by paying for traffic, but I wasn’t sure if it was worth the risk.

My main issue was simple. I was getting installs, but very few users were sticking around or completing registration. It felt like I was paying for numbers, not real people. Organic reach was slow, but at least those users seemed more interested. Paid traffic felt like a gamble.

So I decided to test small instead of going all in. I started reading about how others approach it and came across this guide on Buy Dating App Traffic. What stood out to me was the idea of focusing on intent and placement instead of just going for the cheapest clicks.

I tried narrowing down targeting, tweaking creatives to match what users actually expect from a dating app, and sending traffic to a cleaner landing flow. Honestly, that made more difference than just increasing budget. The first campaigns I ran were broad and messy. Once I tightened things up, the cost per signup improved and users stayed longer.

What didn’t work for me was chasing super low CPC offers. Cheap traffic looked good on paper, but engagement was terrible. I learned that conversion is not just about the click. It is about matching the ad, the audience, and the app experience.

If you are thinking about it, my advice is to start small, track everything, and adjust slowly. Buying traffic can work, but only if you treat it like testing, not magic.
