LONDON -- The Western Archivesnovelty of swiping on Tinder has officially worn off. Swiping left and right on prospective dates might have been fun to begin with, but when it comes to finding a match, it takes some serious swiping.

Tinder has just launched a new feature for people wanting to maximise their matches and minimise time spent swiping.

Tinder Boost, which just launched in the UK, increases your chances of a match by making your profile top of the pile in your area for 30 minutes. The 30-minute boost, which makes you a featured profile on the app, can get you up to 10 times more views, increasing your chances of being seen by potential matches.

Boosts aren't free though. The feature can be bought via the app and the rate per Boost changes depending on how many you buy.

For example, one boost costs £2.29 ($2.82), but a bundle of 10 works out at £1.50 ($1.85) each.

Tinder Plus users are entitled to one free Boost per week. And Boost users will have to keep swiping during the 30-minute period in order for the feature to work.

Tinder Boost was launched in Australia and is being tested in a number of markets before being rolled out worldwide, according to a statement emailed to Mashable.

Who knows, maybe money can buy you love.
