Our brand-new profile badge creates the perfect conversation starter
Now you can easily spot, match with, and message other Game of Thrones fans
Winter is coming! And today we’re excited to announce a brand-new profile badge that will help you connect with people who share your interests and tastes — your TV taste, to be exact. Whether you’re House Stark or House Lannister, you can now easily match with fellow Game of Thrones fans by spotting a new Game of Thrones badge on their profile.
Every OkCupid member who has responded “yes” to the question “Do you watch Game of Thrones?” will have the profile badge. And considering that the show has over 2M mentions on OkCupid profiles, TV is clearly something people want to connect over. So if you’ve also been counting down to the premiere of the final season, this is a badge you’re going to want to sport on your profile, too.
On OkCupid, you always connect on more. We don’t just match you with someone who’s within a 10-mile radius and happens to be looking for someone of your gender and orientation; that sounds more like how your grandmother would match you, right? And we’ve (fortunately) evolved way beyond that. Instead, we take your responses to thousands of fun OkCupid questions — covering everything from politics to pets — so we can connect you with people you’ll enjoy a conversation with, whether your ideal first date is discussing the latest Trump tweet over cocktails or trading Game of Thrones theories on a stroll.
A Game of Thrones badge reveals more about your date than their TV taste, too. For example, OkCupid members who say Brienne and Tormund are their #relationshipgoals are more likely to be proactive in challenging traditional gender roles than those who say Jon Snow and Ygritte. We’re confident that shared views on traditional gender roles create a stronger connection than accurately guessing each other’s lie in “two truths and a lie.” (Spoiler: “Ran a marathon” is always true #humblebrag.) The new profile badge is just another way OkCupid brings the things you really care about to the surface so you can match on what really matters.
We found some other fun anecdotes for singles who want to connect over Game of Thrones:
The profile badge will be available to everyone on OkCupid through June, when the series finale airs. If you want to connect over Game of Thrones, simply answer “yes” to The Game of Thrones question today to get the profile badge and start matching.
