China Online Dating Services Market Research Report, 2028

Chinese people are finding it harder and harder to combine their personal and professional lives due to the fast-paced nature of modern living. This leaves many single people—especially in urban areas—without life partners. Furthermore, due to the high amounts of stress they experience at work, they don't have time to develop relationships with their local friends and are instead forced to spend all of their time working. This opens up a ton of new possibilities for China's online dating industry. According to statistics from China's local civil affairs ministries, Chinese urbanites are getting married at an older age. For instance, approximately 65,000 marriages were newly registered in Hangzhou in 2018. Men and women were, on average, roughly 29 and 27, respectively, when they got married. In other established coastal cities, the trend is the same. The average resident's age at first marriage in Jiangsu Province, east China, was about 26 in 2017, an increase for the third year running. China's dating industry takes advantage of the fact that Chinese individuals are dating longer before getting married. A new market for online dating has been created by the rising divorce rate in China. Dating websites rapidly recognized this market opportunity and have amassed sizable customer bases. The two biggest companies in China's online dating market right now are Zhenai.com and Baihe.com. In addition to dating websites, dating TV shows are rising in popularity in mainland China. Fei Cheng Wu Rao, a dating program that airs on Jiangsu TV, is the most popular of these programs. It consistently has the highest audience rating of all entertainment programs, with up to 50 million viewers per episode. According to the research report "China Online Dating Services Market Research Report, 2028," published by Actual Market Research, the China Online Dating Services market was valued at USD 792.68 Million in 2022. The Zhenai app has a diverse user base and primarily uses the conventional offline blind date format. Middle-aged, highly-paid white-collar workers in China make up the target market. The Zhenai app was developed very recently and has a significant amount of Chinese dating industry penetration. Users of Generation Z are being targeted by Chinese dating apps like Momo and Tantan. They emphasize cutting-edge elements like trend tags and cultural communities. The online live blind date strategy is adopted by cloud dating platforms, which also include matchmaker components. The majority of their user base is composed of young individuals. Dating applications have increasingly incorporated live streaming and brief movies, making the process more engaging and fun. Users could record and watch brief videos, as well as take part in live streaming activities organized by dating services or other users. Personalized recommendations and enhanced pairing algorithms were made possible by artificial intelligence. In order to make more relevant and compatible matches, sophisticated AI algorithms examined user behavior, preferences, and interactions. The gap between online and offline dating experiences was filled by dating applications that included offline activities and events. Users were able to interact with one another at these events and take part in social gatherings that the platforms had planned.
