THE MOTLEY FOOL – July 5 – Jiayuan, China's largest online dating platform, has been on a watchlist ever since it went public early last month. The company currently captures 44% of all online dating spending in China. The business model is focused on microtransactions – charging for messaging or "poking" other profiles – rather than on subscriptions. With ~900K active paying accounts right now, Jiayuan still has room to go in a country with 242M individuals between the ages of 20 and 34.
