MeetMe Releases Revamped MeetMe+ Subscription Product

12/10/2015

Achieves Rank of #2 Top-Grossing Social App on Android

Sets New Single-Day Mobile DAU Record

NEW HOPE, Pa.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
MeetMe,
Inc. (NASDAQ: MEET), a public market leader for social discovery, has
released a major revamp of its MeetMe+ subscription product on its
popular Android and iOS apps. The improved product is designed to
dramatically increase the number of paying subscribers and includes a
number of new features including enhanced filtering, Top of the Inbox,
and unlimited access to the most popular members.

Enhanced filtering allows MeetMe+ subscribers to search for users by
interest, relationship status, height, religion, education, and other
demographic and behavioral fields. Top of the Inbox is designed to
increase MeetMe+ subscribers’ reply rates by placing their chats at the
top of other user’s inboxes. MeetMe+ members also have exclusive access
to chat with the app’s most popular members. In addition to these new
benefits, MeetMe+ subscribers continue to enjoy an advertisement-free
experience, stealth browsing, access to photo views, profile themes, and
bonus credits.

“As of yesterday, MeetMe for Android achieved the ranking of #2
Top-Grossing Social App in the Google Play Store in the United States,”
said Geoff Cook, CEO of MeetMe. “While it is too early to predict the
long-term performance of the revamped subscription service, we are quite
pleased with the early signs of acceptance from our community. MeetMe
for iPhone has enjoyed similar success in recent days, rising 9 places
in the Top-Grossing Social rankings to #11 in the App Store in the
United States.

“As I’ve noted before, we expect the updated MeetMe+ product to at least
double subscription revenue in 2016 from its small base today of roughly
$1 million per year. As part of this revamp to MeetMe+, we have also
launched the foundation for a new recommendation engine touching all
users, both paying and non-paying. We believe the new recommendation
engine will enable us to better leverage our data to drive more relevant
chat for our members. Over time, we look forward to beginning to feed
this engine with interest, demographic, and behavioral data.

“We are pleased also to have set a new single-day mobile DAU record on
Monday of this week, crossing 1.2 million mobile DAU for the first time
in our history. We believe the recommendation engine will help continue
that momentum into next year.”
