I would never pay an up-front fee because my past results with dating apps have been atrocious. I would be much more willing to pay for each match I communicate with, because then if they can't at least find people for me to talk to, I don't pay them.
That creates an incentive for them to fill the service with bots and fake profiles, so that's a terrible idea for users.
If their "service" is an outright scam I won't keep paying for it regardless of their pricing structure.
