Free and fun
August 24, 2023

Hello. I really like this dating website. I started with my friend last week and had a dinner date last night that was super fun. The guy was a bit older than me but he looked and smelled great and treated me better than any guy has my age.

Yes, Secret Benefits is an out of the ordinary site to meet men compared to a site like Tinder or Bumble, but what I personally have found here are men who seriously want to meet and are eager to impress. They may not all be super handsome or young but they make up for it with charm and class.

Having a blast

Guys, this is a highly recommended site if you want to go out with high value beautiful women that take care of themselves and respect a mature man. Very happy with everyone that I've taken out so far.

Having a fun time using secretbenefits
August 8, 2023

Me and my friend recently joined because it's free and we saw a video about this site being free and a good site to meet guys that will treat you out to nice places. Maybe not looking for anything serious but love meeting new and interesting guys.

Secret Benefits is a scam
September 5, 2023

I recently came close to running out of credits on Secret Benefits, and all of a sudden I received many messages from beautiful young women. Most seemed to be from my own area, which is very remote. How wonderful the farmers' daughters were finally coming out of their milk sheds! Thinking that things were looking up, I bought just a few more credits. The women came raining down on my profile, like gifts from heaven, with a couple of Sports Illustrated coverworthy supermodels showing up. All mesmerized by me!

I ran out of credits in a hurry, so I bought a larger number of credits. Then, like ghosts, all the beautiful, vivacious women disappeared. Gone. Only the odd undistinguished individual showed up periodically, kicking tires.

This has happened more than once, which I hate to admit. I have detected a trend here that I should have noticed earlier.

I am generally polite and write clear responses to everyone, so I am not driving people away. My profile is ok. Good education, salary, decent looks that have never turned off women in the larger centers where I have lived. Something nefarious is going on here. One thing is obvious: The site incentivizes women to contact certain individuals with low credit levels -- as another reviewer mentioned.

Consider also the company's marketing directed towards men. "Cheaper than an affair" I've seen pop up from time to time next to a picture of a nude or semi-clad young woman. I don't know what their marketing towards women looks like, but I bet you it doesn't include a picture of a dignified gentleman in tweed jacket driving a Rolls-Royce with the caption "He knows you're cheaper than an affair".

Avoid the Secret Benefits site. Tell anyone you know who uses dating sites. SB is out to drain you of your money and is nothing more than a sophisticated catphishing operation. I am going to research this further, look for the appropriate authorities/watchdog groups, and report the business practices at SB.

I met my true love on SB
July 4, 2023

I met a truly beautiful man on Secret Benefits. It started as a casual dating relationship and it grew into an amazing relationship. He takes such good care of me and is truly a dream. I am so thankful to have him in my life. A million thanks to Secret Benefits!

2nd times a charm on SB?
June 30, 2023

I met someone on a different site while on SB but he was no good. Back on SB and very pleased with my interactions. Totally different caliber of men compared to Tinder. Also feels like more serious people looking for a real human relationship.

Appreciate the fresh start
June 27, 2023

Looking for a fresh start to my Love life so secretbenefits seemed worth a shot.
So far, I've met a lot of great gals and enjoyed some fantastic dates.
Not all women have presented themselves as they did on the site, but that is an issue with all dating online.

Went on date this weekend

I went out with a very attractive lady this weekend. It was very fun getting to know her and I would say that we had a very good time together. I even got a little kiss at the end of the night!

Good day. I just want to share that I'm really enjoying using secret benefits. Love that there are no charges for the service and there are real men on the site that understand how to treat women.

Scam
July 13, 2023

They charged me and then blocked my account saying it was disputed. I talked to my bank and their payment processor, segpay. Segpay said that neither they nor my bank disputed the charge and it was secret benefits that was causing the issue. Secret benefits has horrible customer service and will hard to talk to. They still have my money as I have not been refunded like they said.

As Advertsied
June 12, 2023

Site is a great way for older and successful guys like me to meet young and attractive young ladies. It really is whatever someone wants it to be. Yes, it can get a bit more expensive if you use it a lot but you have to expect it. If you compare it to some of the other "bottom feeders" in the industry, I think it's largely a bargain. I suppose my biggest aggravation - and this is not the fault of SB - is that many ladies are not truly the "size" that they list in their profile. Not a bad idea for SB to require full body shots of everyone to save a lot of wasted time.

SB delievered

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.

SB is my new fave
June 7, 2023

I was wasting a lot of my time on Tinder on guys that really had nothing to offer.
At least the dudes on SB are happy to pay for the date and can bring something to the table and not just promises of a good time.

Sharing this for other women wondering about SB and here to say this is the 2nd time I used the site and met someone real. Yes, you got to load photos without filters, but it is a free service.

Waste of time and money
June 25, 2023

As other critical reviews have mentioned, you get many messages from women, but most of them are generic, and few last more than one or two exchanges.

I receive tons of admirers, and my inbox regularly receives messages, but as soon as I open them, they ghost after a brief exchange if that. Mind you, these "women" reached out to me. I didn't contact them. They don't even respond to a simple greeting. One would think they'd at least be interested in an offer--it would cost them nothing. Not at all. Contact and ghost.

Every action costs 10 credits. That includes opening a message, sending a message to a profile you haven't contacted before, unlocking secret photos, "boosting" a message to supposedly increase its visibility, and checking if a message has been read. These credits add up quickly. I'm talking hundreds of dollars. Once you're down to your last 20 credits or so, the site offers you double what you would normally get with a given package (the highest being 1000 credits for $289, or 2000 if you take the "deal"). It's just a sleazy tactic to keep you running on the hamster wheel.

After consuming a few thousand credits and several months on the site, I've been on two dates, and arranged three that never materialized due to flakiness.

I'm a guy in my early 30s. Good shape. Good money. Plenty of hair. No grey. A number of women have asked me why I'm even bothering with SB instead of using a regular dating site, including both of my real dates. The point is that my "competition" is weak in comparison. Nevertheless, the results have been extremely disappointing. If it were just a personal shortcoming, I could accept that, but the behavior of these "women" makes no sense at all. I figure many of them are fakes, but I also suspect that SB deliberately manipulates the communication behind the scenes. It might throttle your messages to real profiles and send messages to you from real profiles (without their knowledge) to keep you spending more money. Absolutely ridiculous.

Why this site is rated a 4 is beyond me. The ROI is terrible. Do not waste your time here.

I'm going back and forth on Secret Benefits a lot lately as the guys I'm choosing just are not doing ot for me for various reasons.
The plus side is there are a lot of active guys on my area and I am enjoying my user experience on their dating site.
