Want your matches to know you’re ready for Hot Vaxxed Summer? OkCupid will let you add a new “I’m Vaccinated” badge to your profile.
OkCupid is teaming up with the White House to boost vaccinations in the U.S. and daters who make use of the badges will receive a free “boost” on their profiles.
Daters will also be added to OkCupid’s “Vaccinated Stack” which lets people select profiles based on certain categories. You’ll be able to use the badges from May 24, and the stack feature will launch at the start of June.
Vaccines are getting a lot of attention on the apps these days. According to OkCupid data, mentions of the phrase “I’m vaccinated” increased over 1,400 percent in dating profile in May compared to January. According to the data, millennials and Gen Z are more likely than Gen X to cancel a date with someone who didn’t want to get vaccinated.
