About Enrise

Enrise is a South Korean dating company and the operator of Wippy, a dating app. DII identifies it as one of the three largest independent dating app operators in Korea, together with Cupist and Triplecomma.

According to DII, Enrise reported revenue of ₩34.2 billion (about $25.6 million) in 2025, with an operating margin of 7 per cent. That made it the largest of the three by revenue. The company has launched a Japanese version of its app, Wippy Japan, which includes Korea-Japan matching features. The expansion is part of a wider move by Korean operators into Japan, where new user growth in Korea has reached a ceiling and where some local governments subsidise dating app fees.

In an earlier story, DII reported company figures for Wippy showing 1.8 million active users in December 2024, with Japan making up around 40 per cent of the user base, and a 12 per cent share of users paying for subscriptions. Those figures were attributed to Wippy rather than to Enrise, and the figures in the two DII stories have not been reconciled.
