Zillow Co-Founder Spencer Rascoff Named CEO of Match Group

Rascoff takes the helm of the online dating giant as it navigates slowing user growth and plans for AI-driven innovation.

Spencer Rascoff, co-founder and former CEO of Zillow, has been appointed CEO of Match Group, effective immediately.
Rascoff succeeds Bernard Kim, who is stepping down from both the CEO role and the company's board of directors.
Match Group, which owns Tinder, Hinge, OkCupid, and other dating apps, reported a decline in paying users for the ninth consecutive quarter.
The company is focusing on AI-driven features and business transformation, which analysts predict will drive significant growth starting in 2026.
Match Group's disappointing revenue forecast for 2025 caused its shares to drop by 7% in extended trading, despite slightly surpassing Q4 revenue expectations.
