Is it for serious dating, or just for casual hook ups? The short answer is both: You can use Tinder for a variety of reasons, varying from making friends to something casual to dating with the intention of finding your forever person.

Do people really hook-up on Tinder?

One of the graphs showed the results of a survey they did of people currently in a serious relationship with someone they met via online dating. Only 2% of the women surveyed met their partner on Tinder (compared to 35% for Match). So yes, the data shows its pretty much for hookups.
