Headquartered in Austin, Texas, Bumble was founded in 2014 by Whitney Wolfe Herd, the co-founder of Tinder, with the help of Andrey Andreev, the founder of Badoo. They were later joined by former Tinder employees Sarah Mick and Chris Gulczynski who helped design the interface and launch the app.

Since its launch, the company has been steadily growing. In 2016, Bumble released ‘BFF’ mode in addition to its ‘Date’ mode to allow users to find friends. The same year, the business partnered with Spotify (SPOT), enabling users to show their music interests by connecting their Spotify account to their Bumble profile. In 2017, a career networking mode Bumble Bizz was launched. 

In 2020, Bumble replaced MagicLab as the parent company of both Bumble and Badoo.

The company uses a freemium business model, which allows users to join and match for free. Its revenues are primarily generated from in-app purchases and different subscription offerings like Bumble Premium and Bumble Boost. The firm also makes money from advertising and partnerships.
