In an effort to monetize, Tinder has been testing out a premium version of its service, known as Tinder Plus, which grants users access to a handful of useful features and it looks like this new paid version will be making it way to the States next month for an unknown price.

Tinder has quietly been working on a paid version of its service, Tinder Plus, which adds an undo button and the ability to search outside your location. It looks like it’s close to launching, with Techcrunch reporting today that the company released app updates for the service touting the new features, but those aren’t available for users to use just yet in the US. Tinder Plus has been in testing in some markets, like the UK, Brazil and Germany where pricing can be anywhere from $0.99 to $19.99. In the US, however, it will reportedly be available for $6.99 a month. The report today says the features are still being tested but will be switched on for those in the US next month.
