About bpm
bpm is the dating app for athletes and active singles. Free on iPhone and Android, in France, Belgium, Switzerland and Austria.
Our story
We were fed up. Fed up with running clubs where you run side by side without ever really meeting anyone. Fed up with dating apps where finding someone active is impossible: everyone claims to “love sport”, except they don't, and nothing there fits our lifestyle. We wanted someone who shared our passion for sport, and the app we were looking for didn't exist.
So we started simple: community first, app second. In spring 2025, we launched the bpm run klub, a running club for singles in Paris. The idea: 15 men, 15 women. We pair them up, they run together with icebreakers we give them, then they switch partners. And we end it all over a drink or a coffee.
It worked really well: lots of couples got together. So we built an app. bpm launched on 26 December 2025 and has kept growing ever since.
