How do I reserve a spot for the Bondi Beach Tinder Verified QT pop-up?
Spots with renowned photographer Cybele Malinowski and Tinder’s local dating expert, Sera Bozza, are limited so you’ll need to reserve your preferred session time via this link.
What are the opening hours of the pop-up?
The Tinder Verified QT Pop-up will be open on Friday 29 November 2024 from 10:00AM - 2:00PM AEDT. You can book in your session with Cybele Malinowski and Sera Bozza via this link.
Is there a cost to register and take part in the Pop-up?

And remember to bring your phone with your Tinder account ready to go, as well as your ID!
As part of this campaign you will be required to sign release forms enabling Tinder to use any images captured at the pop-up across their owned channels as well as being distributed to media.
Tinder reserves the right to refuse anyone who has booked for whatever reason.
Do you take walk-in appointments?
All bookings must be made via the registration link, however Tinder helpers will be available to support you on-the-ground and will manage some exciting merch giveaways. Bookings are not required for this.
What happens if I can’t make my allocated session?
If you are unable to make your session please make sure to let us know as early as possible so that we can ensure that your session is allocated to someone else. Please let us know by emailing: tinder@altshift.com.au
What happens if I am late to my session?
We allow a 5-minute grace period for late arrivals; if you arrive after this time, we may cancel your booking.
What is the check-in process?
Arrive 5-minutes before your session to check-in. You will be required to show your Tinder profile upon arrival. If you don’t have Tinder, you will need to download the app and sign up in order to participate.
How many times can I register?
As the sessions are limited, you will only be able to book in one session only. If you’re unable to register, we’d still love for you to come down to the pop-up between 10:00AM - 2:00PM AEDT.
How long does the session last?
Each exclusive session with renowned photographer Cybele Malinowski will go for 5 minutes, followed by a 5-minute 1:1 session with local Tinder dating expert, Sera Bozza.
I’m registered, what do I need to bring?
As part of your session, you will simply require your mobile phone with ample battery charge, and enough data to enable you to download the Tinder app and sign on, or to simply sign onto you Tinder profile. You’ll also need to bring a valid, physical ID (Driver’s Licence or Passport) to complete the ID + Photo Verification process.
What will I receive as part of registering to attend the pop-up?
As part of registering for the Tinder Verified QT pop-up, you will gain access to the digital files from your exclusive photography shoot with Cybele Malinowski, as well as first-hand tips from local dating expert, Sera Bozza.
As part of your session, you’ll be ID + Photo Verified on the Tinder app, so will find the blue tick on your profile. You’ll also walk away with some Tinder goodies specially designed for a Verified QT!
What happens if I don’t like my new profile photo?
We want you to feel confident and comfortable whilst getting your photo taken, so we will do everything we can to make this happen, and ensure you love your new profile picture! If something isn’t quite right, just let us know and we’ll do our best, within reason, to fix it so you leave with a smile.
Can a friend join me in the pop-up booth?
You are welcome to come along with friends to the pop-up, however the booth is limited to one person at a time.
What if all the sessions are booked?
We would still love for you to join us at the pop-up! You’ll have the chance to chat with our friendly Tinder helpers, test your luck on our Spin the Wheel and receive some cool Tinder merch along the way.
You can also still take part in the Tinder Verified QT drive in-app, by following the ID + Photo Verification process.
How does the donation work?
For every new account that successfully completes ID + Photo Verification on their profile between Tuesday 12 November and Friday 6 December, Tinder will contribute $1 to its NGO partner, Wesnet. Donations will amount to a total of $20,000.
Why is Tinder partnering with Wesnet on this campaign?
Wesnet is Tinder’s key NGO partner in Australia. Wesnet offers crucial relief and support services to women and children affected by domestic and family violence, intimate partner violence, and other forms of gender-based abuse.
Tinder and Wesnet have worked together on some important initiatives over the past few years such as School of Swipe, including the recently launched Consent Course, and the Dating Safety Guide. These resources provide valuable information to help navigate the dating landscape safely and with confidence.
