I'm out
February 26, 2020

Took my profile down today. I met the man I was hoping for! We are currently working on moving in together and figuring out some small details but everything is working out perfectly so far. Haters will be haters, players will be players, but when you find someone legit you just know it. Very happy I joined Secret Benefits!

Responsive support
February 9, 2020

I would like to give recognition to the support on Secretbenefits.com. I contacted them with a few questions and wanted to get a verification of my profile. Response time was prompt, and I was treated very nicely. My questions were answered and I managed to get my verified badge. Very impressed. (The person that assisted me most was Liz)

Suspicious
February 4, 2020

I have received messages from potential sugar babies. But, about 90% of the women have written a 5-10 word note (or less) that shows zero thought and I, as a male subscriber, have to buy credits to initiate each conversation if I'm interested. When I've replied with a thoughtful response expressing interest I've almost never heard back from the potential sugar baby. I can't figure out why they send messages, put you on their list of preferred partners, and then don't reply. This has happened to me EVERY time. It gives the impression that the girls are fakes enlisted to interest you just enough to get you to reply (which uses credits) and then ignore you to move on to the next guy. That may or may not be the case, but this has happened to me whether the girls are "verified" accounts or not. The site representatives say this is not deliberate deception and rightly point out that they have no control over the behavior of their users, but it appears to be a pattern. Maybe it's just that the place is populated by vapid women with short attention spans who really have no interest in becoming a sugar baby or, I think most likely, they think they want to be one and sign up because the idea seems exciting but then decide they aren't really interested or they're scared and they move along. In any case, so far it has not been worth the time or money to me. Your mileage may vary. I will say that the customer service people have been responsive and helpful.

I signed up to Secret Benefits just over a week ago. I like it. Just sent in a video to get verified and the customer support approved me pretty fast. Lots of talkative guys. Seems like a lot of active profiles. Hopefully can find someone worth my time here. Fingers crossed.

Decent odds
January 21, 2020

If you've tried online dating sites as much as I have you quickly realize how much of a competitive sausagefest most of these sites are. Secretbenefits.com has done alright by me. I would say out of every 10 ladies I contact 7 write me back and about half agree to meeting. Not all of those I meet are home runs but you could say I'm satisfied with my odds here.

Just feel the need to share that I recently took my profile down on Secretbenefits.com. After a lot of searching I finally met my match. She's more than I could have dreamed of. This site worked. Sometimes discouraged but perseverance paid off.

Starting the new year right
January 4, 2020

I had to give credit to secret benefits.com. I met the most adorable loving woman a few months ago from this site that has made me the happiest man in the world. I asked her on new year's eve to move in with me and she said yes! I never believed I could be with a woman like her. They have a very happy customer here! Many thanks!

Great customer service
December 16, 2019

Had a very pleasant interaction with Kira from the secretbenefits customer service today. Her response was quick, thoughtful, and professional. Idk, guess it really stands out to me when the customer service from sites like this one really take the time and training of their staff to convey that they really care. Makes me feel like I'm in good hands.

Classy dates. 2 thumbs up
December 10, 2019

I joined after my friend recommended. I was on Tinder and found it almost impossible to find a decent guy that would follow through with a real live date. Still encounter an occasional perv but the overall higher caliber of men on SB is night and day. Meeting real men that treat me nice is a nice change.

Entertaining
November 24, 2019

Feel for those having a tough time. Online dating can be rough sometimes.

Since signing up on Secret Benefits a couple years ago, I've been ghosted twice, dumped once, and I think catfished at least once but I cut those lines once I get that feeling.

On the other hand, also have dated some of the most diverse and beautiful women I've ever met off of one dating site.

Main thing is you play your cards right, write a nice profile, be upfront, load some good photos showing off the best of you, and be polite. Don't be trying to get in her pants or trade nudes right off the bat. If you wouldn't do it in person, don't do it online.

Not everyone will be a match, and not every hot chick you got your eyes on is going to respond to you. Gotta imagine how many dudes are hitting them up. But I think as long as you are not a creep, you can score here. Peace.

Two poor experiences thus far
December 5, 2019

So I have had several experiences / conversations thus far from the site. And the girls on the site seem to be the full spectrum from outright pay to play to women looking for a boyfriend. From the three in person experiences, I am 0-3 thus far. One girl didn't even show up for the date citing "she didnt think the set date was serious" when in fact we had confirmed date / time / place two days earlier? And the date set at a very nice restaurant I might add... That is what it is and not much more I can say. The 2nd lady was a model/beautician/salesperson who did show up for the date. It was a nice time, fun, good conversation, nice girl. But this person, clearly well trained in how to look her best, decided to stop home after work and dress further down from her assumed business casual work sales attire. So she shows up to a nice steakhouse in sneakers, ripped jeans, a sweatshirt, and baseball cap, with minimal if any makeup on. Yes I said Baseball cap... Well she has Filet Mignon taste with a Burger King appearance. Should I be offended or feel disrespected? I mean, if your aim is to be treated like a Barbie Doll, step one would be to look like and carry yourself like one... correct? Arm candy if that's what you want to be needs to look sweet... As a man, if I show up to the date substantially better dressed than the girl, well, that's an issue... The 3rd meeting was a nice girl, straight conversation, just not for me. I gave the site 3 stars because thus far nothing that has gone wrong on those 3 dates is their fault... but hard to recommend the site if the quality of people are no shows / please don't embarrass me dates... Ot hard to recommend if most women dont answer e-mail. That being said, I am seeing alot of potentially fake accounts. Accounts where the pics posted are very attractive, they write to me to entice me to spend credits to write back. When I write back, nobody there... I'm keeping a record of all the activities and who does what because something tells me that while there are certainly real people on the site, I'm relatively sure the site is also sponsoring fake activity for financial gain. Update: Nothing new and same stuff others are experiencing. No replies, etc. And with the premis of the site, I really don't believe any of these other reviews citing "found the one", etc, etc.

Quality niche dating website
November 21, 2019

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.

Seems mostly a time and money waste
December 20, 2019

Well, as a guy you do get messages from potential sugar babies. But that's where it gets strange. About 90% write a 5-10 word phrase (or less) that shows very little imagination and you as a male subscriber have to pay to open each message. Then you reply with a nicely worded reply--sometimes within an hour or so--and never hear back from the potential sugar baby. At first it seemed unusual and as time goes by I never became comfortable that the process is legitimate. I can't figure out why you as a sugar baby send a message and don't reply. Perhaps there's some reason that explains that behavior. But it makes the users seem very shallow. Some people may be but SB makes it look like it's 90% of the user base.

One of the best IMO
November 7, 2019

Tons of dating sites. Been on a few. Takes a lot of effort to find someone decent that I am really attracted to. Things really turned around for me once I verified my video with the secretbenefits support peeps. Getting more men chatting me than ever before. Really happy with this site!

I'm sharing this review because there are many similar types of sugardaddy websites out there. I had only tried another one once before and was very disappointed, overall. I signed up for SecreBenefits mainly because I read lots of positive reviews such as the ones on this (TrustPilot) site. After only about 2 weeks on the site, today I met the sweetest, and sexiest sugar baby of my dreams! She is super hot and we connected very well on our dinner date. I am super excited to meet with her again in a few days. I am so thrilled with the results of SecretBenefits and wanted other men, like me, who are looking for that connection to have the opportunity I had!

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.

Who want to cam for you or just chat/text (no meet up_).
August 21, 2019
Previous review

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
