    Analyst Opinion

    The Online Dating market in Slovenia has seen significant growth in recent years, driven by changing customer preferences and the increasing acceptance of online dating platforms.

    Customer preferences:
    Slovenian customers are increasingly turning to online dating platforms to meet potential partners. This shift in preference can be attributed to several factors. Firstly, the convenience and accessibility of online dating platforms make it easier for individuals to connect with others, especially in today's fast-paced world. Additionally, online dating allows individuals to meet people outside of their social circles, expanding their options and increasing the likelihood of finding a compatible partner.

    Trends in the market:
    One of the key trends in the Slovenian online dating market is the growing popularity of niche dating platforms. These platforms cater to specific interests or demographics, such as religious or ethnic communities, professionals, or individuals with specific hobbies or interests. This trend reflects the desire for more targeted and personalized dating experiences, as individuals seek to find partners who share their values and interests. Another trend in the market is the increasing use of mobile dating apps. With the widespread adoption of smartphones, more people are using dating apps to connect with potential partners on the go. These apps offer a convenient and efficient way to meet new people, with features such as location-based matching and instant messaging. The popularity of mobile dating apps is expected to continue growing in the coming years, as more people embrace the convenience and flexibility they offer.

    Local special circumstances:
    Slovenia is a relatively small country with a population of around 2 million people. This small population size may limit the number of potential matches available on online dating platforms, especially in more niche markets. However, the increasing acceptance of online dating and the growing number of users in Slovenia suggest that this is not a major barrier to the growth of the market.

    Underlying macroeconomic factors:
    The growth of the online dating market in Slovenia is also influenced by broader macroeconomic factors. A strong economy and high levels of internet penetration contribute to the increasing popularity of online dating platforms. As more people have access to the internet and disposable income, they are more likely to try online dating as a way to meet potential partners. In conclusion, the Online Dating market in Slovenia is experiencing significant growth due to changing customer preferences, the popularity of niche dating platforms, the increasing use of mobile dating apps, and the underlying macroeconomic factors. These trends and circumstances are driving the adoption of online dating platforms in Slovenia, providing individuals with more options and opportunities to find love and companionship.

    Methodology

    Data coverage:

    The data encompasses B2C enterprises. Figures are based on Gross Merchandise Value (GMV) and represent what consumers pay for these products and services. The user metrics show the number of customers who have made at least one online purchase within the past 12 months.

    Modeling approach / Market size:

    Market sizes are determined through a bottom-up approach, building on predefined factors for each market segment. As a basis for evaluating markets, we use annual financial reports of the market-leading companies, third-party studies and reports, as well as survey results from our primary research (e.g., the Statista Global Consumer Survey). 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:

    In our forecasts, we apply diverse forecasting techniques. The selection of forecasting techniques is based on the behavior of the relevant market. 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:

    The market is updated twice a year in case market dynamics change. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war are considered at a country-specific level. GCS data is reweighted for representativeness.
