We've all been there: You're under the covers,video lucah lebai vs janda gatal scrolling through Tinder way past your bedtime. You're on a left-swipe roll and accidentally pass on someone you would've swiped right on so hard your thumb would break.

The only way to Rewind — reverse your last swipe — is to pay for Tinder, so why don't you go ahead and just drop some dollars a month to pay for a Tinder Gold subscription? This will set you back $18.99 for one week and $24.99 for one month, according to the U.S. App Store. Tinder confirmed to Mashable that the app considers a user's previous account activity, including how long you've had their account, past purchases, and past engagement when providing subscription offers. Demographic factors like age, gender, and sexual orientation don't factor in, according to Tinder. The exact cost may also vary based on international exchange rates.

If, when you get the next month's charge, you regret this financial decision, you'll need to cancel Tinder Gold. Here's how to do it.

What is Tinder Gold?

Tinder Gold is one of the dating app's tier subscription options. Maybe they call it gold because it's the Goldilocks of plans, having more perks (and costing more) than Tinder Plus, but fewer perks and a smaller price tag than Tinder Platinum.

With all Tinder subscriptions, you don't see ads. You have unlimited Likes (as opposed to 100 right-swipes per day for free users), unlimited Rewinds, and can use the Passportfeature for any location.

Tinder Gold, unlike Tinder Plus, also has Top Picks, where the app serves you your "most swipe-worthy matches." You'll get one free Boosta month, which makes you a top profile in your area for 30 minutes, and free weekly Super Likes, which let the user know you Liked them before they Like you back.

In addition to all of those features, Tinder Platinum allows you to see Likes you made; gives you Priority Likes, which put you at the top of your potential match's options; and lets you send a message when you Super Like.

How to cancel Tinder Gold

How you cancel Tinder Golddepends on how you subscribed. Deleting the app on your phone won't cancel the subscription, and if you purchased it through the Apple or Google Play Store, deleting your Tinder account itself won't cancel it either.

If you bought Tinder Gold on your iPhone, open your Settings and tap on your name. Then tap subscriptions, select your Tinder one, and press Cancel Subscription.

For Android, there are two options. If you purchased through the Google Play Store, go there on your Android. Tap the Menu icon and go to Subscriptions. Select the Tinder subscription, and choose Cancel Subscription.

If you used the direct credit card option on Android, open Tinder on your device. Go to your profile, tap Manage Payment Account, then Cancel Subscription.

Finally, if you bought Tinder Gold through Tinder's browser application, go to the site. Tap the profile icon, go to Manage Account, then click Cancel or disable Auto Renew. Deleting your Tinder account on the browser site also automatically cancels the subscription if you bought it there.

Still having trouble? Tinder has a separate article for help on canceling the subscription, but it's basically the same instructions. Should you need individualized help, screenshot what you're seeing and contact Tinder directly.

What happens when I delete Tinder Gold?

You'll still have access to the paid features until the subscription runs out. Tinder doesn't prorate fees based on cancellation date, nor do they retroactively refund previous payments.

Canceling your paid subscription doesn't delete your Tinder account, so you can still use it for free. Should you want the extras again, you can always start a new subscription. Until then, enjoy your regret-free swipes.
