Its a good dating site so far
September 12, 2018

I started a profile on Secret Benefits just out of curiosity mostly. I honestly had no expectations. I've used other more vanilla dating sites but never a sugar dating site before, so I don't have a similar site to compare from. However, all-in-all, I like that it's free, signing-up was super fast, I do get replies from guys every day I go on, chatting with several, and 4 successful dates this past month. Some guys are more generous than others, but they have all been sweet and acted like gentlemen. It seems I have more interest coming in from guys I've messaged before hand vs guys approaching me first.

I see mixed reviews on this site. My experience is that I set up shop talked to a bunch met a few with no issues and just like a review below it sudden stopped working. I no longer got likes or messages when no activity nothing. Then when I asked someone else I talk to from the site they said my profile isn't active. I contacted customer service several times over the course of a week and a half and I've gotten no reply. I even made a couple more accounts which the pictures are still waiting approvals days later and still no customer service response. Kind of shady if you ask me

I've been on SB for couple years now. I have met a few interesting women but not long term. Some women think very high of themselves and I'm sure some guys are obnoxious as women have told me. I tend to be older and selective so I may not be best judge. There are many different choices if you live in high population area.
I do often wonder why so many women say hi but never respond again even after you keep trying.
Many more misses than hits but isn't that true about dating in general?

Works for me
October 8, 2019

Not too sure why a few here give this site a bad rating. I feel it's really one of the better date sites I've tried mostly because I'm actually meeting legit men here. I mean, we're all here for the same reason, right? I rarely feel I'm wasting my time and most of the men I have a good chat and connection with online follow through and meet in person. Seeing 2 men regularly but also going out every once in a while with someone new. Don't listen to the haters. It works if you give it an honest go and have some smarts regarding online dating.

SECRET BENEFITS AFTER 2 MONTHS
November 28, 2019
Updated review

After the site gave me 200 credits, I decided to keep on trying and see what happens. As normal with this site, a lot of women here are 1 timers. They make a profile, use it for a week then disappear, they may have found someone or decided being a SB is not for them, who knows. Most of my messages under "new members" go unanswered, with some never showing to be read. Again, seems like a lot of girls get on this site, and move on. So my next plan was to only contact women who were "online recently", I actually did have 4 girls contact me back. So there's a start. Unfortunately, 2 of them never came back online. So, after 2 months and almost all the credits gone, I have yet to meet anyone, and have 2 girls that just want to text. SB is a real hit and miss, at-least in my area, maybe it will get better with time, one thing I would like to see as far as sending messages - if they go unread don't charge me for them. That would actually give me back about 100 credits.

This is getting wide spread here, I find it to be girls 24 and under so far. They message you, wanting to be a Sugar Baby. But infact they don't even want to meet, they just want your money a very little in return. Some want to chat, others want to sell pics. They are on the wronge site. Here is a short list so far to saty away from.
Felicia_098 wants to private cam for money
Kyrsten_210 Wants to text or chat for allowance - no meet up.
SweetBabyGirl45 wants to chat - no meet up

I'd be using the site as a woman for the last week. I've got a ton of a messages, admirers, matches. Out of nowhere I got a notification that my account was limited and I needed to verify myself with a video. No problem, submitted a video. Verification is only suppose to take 24-48 hours and now it's been 120. I'm livid. I had a few dates set up through the site and I can't even message them back because the stupid site won't verify me. I've messaged support at least 4 times with no response. This issue is killing my chances of meeting anyone and ruining any chance I did have with the men I was talking to. Completely unacceptable and $#*!ty customer service.

Odds are decent
March 5, 2020

I officially got ghosted by a chick I was chatting with for the past 2 weeks... I thought we were hitting it off but maybe I was too forward or who knows? Anyways, trying not to keep score, but I suppose Secret Benefits can't be really to blame for my relationship success. I have been out with a few really cute girls from the site that are still of interest more or less. I'm not exactly looking for anything real serious, and I don't think the women I've met are either, so it's been fun for the most part.

Was in an LTR for 7 months with a guy I met on this site. Recently parted ways.
Jumped back on and surprised at how many more guys are on the site within my city.
Chatting with a couple nice guys now. Haven't gone out with anyone yet, but might see one of them this weekend. Would like an option to request guys verify their profile photos. Some have pics that are really tough to make out what they really look like.

SB did some growin
October 21, 2019

I gave this site a try a couple years ago. Ended up getting serious with someone until recently.

Single again and happy they kept my profile. Jumped back on the horse and blown away by how many more ladies are on the site since I last looked.

Got a bunch of favorites and having a great time chatting a few right now. Got a hot date lined up this weekend at a new restaurant nearby. Pumped about the prospects here. Gotta be one of the best dating sites I've tried.

I was having trouble getting photos of female profiles to load on a competitor dating site. Gave SB a try out of frustration and it's been going great. Several very attractive women are interested in pursuing a relationship and I've met 2 so far in person and both were the real deal!

SB delievered
June 8, 2023

I signed up and took the chance at finding a companion on SB, and only after 2 months searching and going out a few times, I found an absolute bombshell that vibes perfectly with me and my lifestyle. Cheers to this site for helping bring us together.

Lot of Cash for no return
February 15, 2023

Similar experience to others. Spent a fortune on credits got some short one word responses or one line response. After you get pictures they disappear. Many posts have pictures that seem too professional. Had only one conversation after sending dozens of messages.

More like Prince Charles than Prince Charming
September 21, 2018

I'm still on the search for a man that can pay the bills, but is not old enough to be my actual daddy, or grandpa for that matter! The last couple of men I went out with were for sure older than they said. Ok, whatever, I understand that's typical in the sugar daddy world. Personally, I just wish Secret Benefits would try to get some younger affluent guys on the site. Otherwise, the site works as it should, but for the aforementioned reason, I feel 4 stars is fair.

Thanks for your fair review Gretchen. If you've seen someone who is being dishonest on their profile please report them to our customer support team. There are lots of different sugar daddies on the Secret Benefits, including the young affluent type you speak of, keep at it and I'm sure you'll find one that suits you.

Modern and slick site
September 10, 2018

I signed up last week and I have had a great experience with Secret Benefits. I appreciate the site feels more modern than others I've tried in the past, and it generally feels intuitive and is very easy to navigate. I had no issue purchasing credits and communicating with a couple ladies right now. Only 1 successful date so far, but she was a bombshell, so I hope to see her again next week. I just paid for the date and her taxi. She basically said she needs help with her school debt, so provided we end up seeing each other on the regular I have no problem helping her out along the way. Exciting stuff!

SB itself is a functional website and the service they provide is quality. It's really what you make of it.

I can see how not everyone that joins this website will find a relationship that meets their expectations, but that's just the name of the game with online dating in general.

Personally still dating around, having fun, and trying to stay open minded about the relationship possibilities.

Confirming SB works
September 11, 2020

I was curious to see how others find SB and maybe get some tips. I'm fairly new to the site, but I want to confirm that my experience so far has been similar to others. The site works good, I got verified easily, and I'm getting a good amount of interest. Not sure what I'm looking for yet, or what I can find. I did have my 1st date a couple nights ago. We are talking about meeting again this weekend. Just still a bit unsure how to navigate my way in the dating process, expectations, etc. Tips?

I knocked around sad and lonely for a while tried the other dating sites for that special on. Accidentally I found Secret Benefits one day so I decided to try it. I had several dates was dissatisfied with them until I found this last lady. I did a match on her an almost immediately she responded to me. We made arrangements to meet and she just happens to be a local woman to me. Less than 20 miles away. We meet for lunch and wound up staying 7 hours in the restaurant. I know it sounds crazy but we were both into each other that much. We really like each other have a lot of fun together what more could I possibly ask for. Ive placed my profile on Away for a while Im just having to much fun to mess it up. Thanks Secret Benefits for making my hopes and dreams come true. Im no longer alone happy to have a beautiful lady half my age going places being my partner. I no longer a lonely unhappy man any more.

Fun, fun, fun
November 14, 2018

Super fun to jump on in the mornings and see who's messaged me last. It's actually become part of my daily routine; check in the morning and check before bed (and sometimes throughout the day lol). I've met some really interesting guys. Love being spoiled! It's a refreshing step up from dating penny-pinching guys that don't truly value my company!
