Are You the One? is a German reality television series on the premium sector TVNOW and on the television channel RTL, in which young singles try to find love. The show premiered on April 14, 2020, on TVNOW and on May 6, 2020, on RTL.^[1][2]

A group of 10 single women and 10 single men are secretly paired into couples by Experts, via a matchmaking algorithm. Then, while living together, the contestants try to identify all of these "perfect matches". If they succeed, the entire group shares a prize of up to €200,000. Over the course of each season, the contestants go on dates with partners determined by competitions, and have the opportunity to learn in the "truth booth" if a given couple is a correct match. Once the truth booth confirms a perfect match, that couple will go to the honeymoon suite and will automatically be paired up for the remainder of the matching nights. At the end of each episode, the contestants pair up in a "matching night" and learn how many perfect matches they have, but not which matches are correct. The prize was reduced any time that the house failed to identify any matches other than those already confirmed via the truth booth.

Notes

 Name  = Unconfirmed perfect match
 N/A  = This boy was not chosen in the matching night

Due to the blackout in the fourth matching night, the whole cast lost €20,000, lowering the total money at the end to €180,000, instead of €200,000. Because of Edin joining the show at a later stage, the total money was raised by €20,000 in the finale, so the cast had a winning sum of €200,000 again.

After Francesco and Jules left the show, the money went down from 200.000 € to 180.000 €. For the truth booth in week 4, the contestant traded the truth booth for 70.000 €, so the winning sum was raised to 250.000 €. In week 5, the truth booth trade was worth 150.000 € and the trade was made, so the winning sum was 400.000 €. In week 8, due to a blackout, the winning sum was lowered to 350.000 €. In week 9, an offer was made to buy back a trooth booth match: Tommy & Melina. They took this deal and lost 200.000 €, lowering the winning sum to 150.000 €.
