SAVVY TOKYO - In Japan, specific dating apps are tailored for those seeking serious, marriage-centered relationships. Key apps include Zexy Enmusubi, with a user base mainly in their late 20s to early 30s; Tapple, in business for ~8 years; With, known for its psychological tests; Omiai, the second-largest in this niche with 44% of users seeking marriage; and Pairs, the largest with a 20M strong user base, catering to mid-20s to late 30s individuals. Traditional matchmaking services like En-Konkatsu Agent and IBJ also exist. These platforms differ from casual dating apps by emphasizing serious relationships leading to marriage, with strict user screening and compatibility measures. Users need proficiency in Japanese and usually have to meet specific age, residency, and financial requirements.
