Analyst Opinion
The Casual Dating market comprises online services for the establishment of sexually oriented contacts outside of romantic relationships. It is the smallest segment in terms of revenues and has a high gap between paying and non-paying user numbers, while most users are not willing to pay for services. As casual dating contacts become ever more socially accepted, concerns centered around security and online safety become increasingly important for both the industry and the users. We therefore expect a significant improvement in the field of data protection within the next years. However, should these issues be neglected, further data breaches like the Ashley Madison hack might negatively affect user growth.

In addition, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific associations, such as GDP, GDP per capita, and internet connection speed. This data helps us estimate the market size for each country individually.Forecasts:

For example, the S-curve function and exponential trend smoothing. The main drivers are internet users, urban population, usage of key players, and attitudes toward online services.Additional notes:
