What Is Bumble Spotlight?
Bumble Spotlight is a premium feature within the app that boosts your dating profile. Similar to Tinder’s Boost feature, it shuffles your profile to the top of the queue for 30 minutes without anyone knowing. This can help you find matches quickly.
How to Use Bumble Spotlight
A Bumble Spotlight costs two Bumble Coins to activate. You can buy Bumble Coins for $0.99 each. There’s a slight discount if you buy coins in bulk. Other users won’t know when you’ve purchased a Spotlight, but you should see stars at the top of your profile when the feature is enabled. Here’s how to use it:
Open Bumble and go to the Account tab. Tap Spotlight. If you don’t have coins, purchase some. You can pay with a credit card or use a mobile payment service like Google Wallet or Apple Pay. Choose how many you want to buy, then tap Continue. Once you have the coins you need, confirm your Spotlight purchase.
When Is the Best Time to Use Bumble Spotlight?
According to Bumble, the best time to use Spotlight is Sundays between 8 p.m. and 10 p.m. This is supposedly when most people are on the app swiping.
Do I Really Need to Use Bumble Spotlight?
Deciding to use Bumble Spotlight is a personal choice. If you don’t get as many matches as you’d like, testing out the feature isn’t a bad option, and you don’t have to commit to it long term. If you get a lot of matches, using Bumble Spotlight may not be necessary.
