Membership
Free. Every feature, both sides.
No credits, no subscription, no paywall. Messages, private albums, the Board, verification: all free, whichever side you join.

Free, for everyone
What you get, free
The lot. Other sites charge to read a message or see a private photo. Here you never pay for either.
Your profile
Headline, about, what you offer or what you are looking for.
Your photos
Up to 12 public and 12 private. You choose who sees the private album.
Verification
A live selfie, checked by a person. The Verified badge follows.
Browse and search
Search members and filter once your profile is complete.
Favourites
Save the people you like. See who saved you.
Block and report
One press, always free. Leaving is free too: delete your account any time.
Messages
Messages are free, both ways
Write first, reply, keep talking. No credits to open a conversation, no fee to read one, no boost to buy.
What lifts you is how you behave: reply promptly and properly, use good photos, and you rise to the top of search. How ratings work.
Write first
Either side, any time, free.
Private albums
Ask to see one, free. The owner says yes or no.
The Board
Post an invitation or apply for one, free, once verified.
Two sides
Pick your side when you join
Attractive members
Free. Profile, photos, verification, search, messages and the Board.
Generous members
Free. The same: profile, verification, search, messages and the Board.
Any gender on either side. You can change side once.

Money between members
We stay out of it
Dateable never holds, moves or guarantees money between members. No escrow, no fee on an offer, no payout. What a host offers on the Board is their own statement. Dateable takes nothing from any arrangement.
So nobody ever needs a fee from you to release an allowance. Asking for a small "proof of loyalty" payment first is a known sugar dating scam.1 So is asking for gift cards.2
No escrow
We never hold money for anyone.
No cut
No fee on any offer.
No fees to release
Anyone asking is a scammer. Report them.
Nothing to pay us
Dateable is free.
Questions
Before you join
Is Dateable free?
Yes, for everyone, every feature.
Is there a catch?
You are rated on how you reply and on your photos, and the ratings decide where you sit in search. How ratings work.
Do I need to verify?
To post or apply on the Board, yes. Verified members also get the badge and sit higher in search. How verification works.
