Lumen's Dating App Caters to People 50+ Years Old in Canada

— August 20, 2019 — Lifestyle
In order to combat ageism in dating, Lumen recently launched its dating app in Canada, which caters to people who are over 50. The app focuses on the user's interests and encourages quality conversations and connections. Additionally, users can search for specific age ranges when seeking a partner, instead of a generic "over 55" category.

Lumen also allows users to participate in group chats to help foster real, interest-based connections. The dating app also ensures all profiles are verified and authentic to ensure quality conversations. In addition, users are only able to start six conversations a day to prevent spamming, and the app gives recipients 72 hours to respond before the message disappears.

Lumen is the perfect dating app for people over 50 seeking a new, meaningful relationship.
