- New surge in LGBTQ+ downloads pushes Veggly closer towards 500,000 total users

June 11th, London & São Paulo – Veggly, the world’s leading dating app for vegans and vegetarians, today releases new data revealing a surge in downloads from the vegan LGBTQ+ community during the first seven days of Pride Month in June.
In the past week, Veggly has seen a 187% increase in downloads from the LGBTQ+ community when compared to an average week.
Commenting on the surge in downloads, Founder of Veggly, Alex Felipelli, said: “We are honoured to see such a great boost of LGBTQ+ users on our platform during the first week of Pride Month. Our main goal is to provide the best dating app possible for vegan and vegetarian communities, regardless of your sexuality or gender, making sure everyone feels welcome and finds love. Love is love, and herbivorous love is the best!
“The LGBTQ+ community will ALWAYS be welcome on Veggly! We look forward to helping this community find new relationships and love, wherever they are in the world.”
To celebrate Pride Month, Veggly is awarding three coins to all users (new and existing), to enable more ‘super likes’ and new matches.
In the past two and a half years, Veggly has grown rapidly, now rapidly approaching 500,000 global users (20x growth since July 2019), from Brazil, to Canada, to Australia, to Korea, to Denmark and beyond. Available worldwide (used in 181 countries), Veggly is set to continue its rapid growth thanks to teams of vegans who have worked together to translate the app into 9 languages: English, Spanish, German, Portuguese, French, Italian, Danish and Polish, with many more languages on the way, including Korean (Veggly is launching throughout Korea this month).
Building on the recent growth, Veggly has also launched its ‘teleportation’ feature, enabling users to meet more daters, even when far away. For example, a user in LA can now experience what the app is like in London by changing their location. Initial tests have shown this is a popular option for daters preparing for a trip to another country so they can meet people through the app before arriving.*
*Teleportation feature is available on the app for free until end of June 2021
