JSwipe Review January 2025

JSwipe is the largest and the fastest growing Jewish dating app available in the market. Since its conception in 2014, the app has gathered over 600,000 members across 70 countries already. Most of its members are found in the large cities in the world, including Los Angeles, New York, and Tel Aviv. Your matches are based on location, but you can always adjust the distance scope in the app settings. You can even set it to worldwide if you want. JSwipe is an app that helps millennial Jews find love, romance, and friendship. Though the app was first developed to cater to the needs of the Jewish community, it has now opened its doors to non-Koshers who are interested in knowing Jewish traditions and are actually considering marrying a Jew someday. If you are looking for casual arrangements, this may not be the best app for you. Most of its users are looking for long-term relationships, someone they can bring to every family dinner, or someone they can celebrate Hanukkah with.

          Do you really need an upgrade to enjoy JSwipe? Well, that depends on your definition of 'enjoy'. If you are happy with unlimited swipes and free messages, then the answer is probably yes.

          New members have the privilege to experience some of the paid features for a limited time, specifically the Passport and the Explore option. With this, you will have a firsthand experience of how a First Class account would be like. After your free trial expires, you will be prompted to upgrade to first class. If you enjoyed the free trial, then you should maybe consider upgrading your account. Their membership fee is reasonable, considering all the benefits you can get from it.
