Met someone at a Bumble IRL event and want to keep the conversation going? Enter Bumble’s Instant Match feature—the easy way to take your meet-cute to a “let’s keep talking level.” With Instant Match, just scan a QR code to connect on Bumble—no awkward exchanges, just a quicker way for you two to connect. 

Why use Instant Match? 

If you’ve met someone at a Bumble IRL event Instant Match helps you keep the conversation going. 

• Find common ground, faster: Once you match, the screen will reveal the Interests you both share, helping you find common ground and build on that initial chemistry. Share your profile by having them scan your QR code, and see if you two share the same interests. 
• A safer way to connect: You can use Instant Match by sharing your personalized QR code from your profile. No need to exchange phone numbers or social media handles.
• Start fresh with every connection: If you’re concerned about the awkward moment of realizing you’ve already swiped left on the person you’ve just met—don’t stress. With Instant Match, that connection resets.
