What's Your Price

With so many online dating sites on the market today, platforms need a strong USP to stand out. While this mass influx of dating sites has created some healthy competition, it's also created some very unique - and efficient - gimmicks to help people meet partners. In this article, we're looking at one of the most interesting Internet dating gimmicks ever invented: bidding on your date partner like a sexy version of eBay.

What's Your Price isn't like other dating sites. It closely resembles sex work, but the site claims otherwise. But the big question is, will this site help you find a partner? Does it work for sugar dating? How do the prices compamre to similar online dating services? We've put together a massive, detailed guide so you can decide whether it's for you. Here's your ultimate Whats Your Price review.

First Impressions

Whats Your Price doesn't looking like the most incredible website in the world, we have to admit. The site has a simplistic feel with very boring, standard colors that don't really emphasize dating or sex. Modern online dating sites tend to use either contrasting neon colors or sleek black and white color schemes, whereas WYP uses muted blues and reds alongside very some very basic fonts and mismatching elements.

But while the web page looks a little amateur, the information on offer is quite inviting. The site boasts of its achievements and all the features on offer, including; 47 million bids per day; 10 million first dates every year, 5 million attractive singles and the average amount you can expect to pay for awesome dates (which is currently at $120 as of September 2022). On the surface, the statistics look super impressive.

Aside from the less-than-fabulous website design, every other aspect of the site is decent enough. There's a few testimonials from real members, and they do indeed resemble real life individuals. Navigation is pretty easy, and the site's function is clearly laid out in an instructional flow chat. Overall, first impressions are middle of the road,

Whats Your Price Sign Up Process

Hit the 'Join Now' button in the top right of the page to begin the sign up process. On Whats Your Price, members are broken down into two categories; Attractive and Generous. The labels speak for themselves, but Attractive members are the sugar babies (be them male or female), and Generous members are the sugar daddies and sugar mamas.

Once you've chosen your designation from the list, you can't change it at a later date. You'll also only match with members of the opposite category throughout your time here (Generous members can't view other Generous members for example. Once you've chosen your category, you'll be asked to provide the following information to create your account:

• Username
• Password
• Email Address
• Date of Birth
• Zip Code
• Sexual Preferences

Then you just need to verify your email and you're good to go. You can start browsing through profiles as you see fit, and if you come across users who take your fancy, you can make them a monetary bid for their first date companionship. There are also auction-style listings where you'll compete with other users for the first date commitments of a hot young girl.

What's Your Price Features

What's Your Price has a number of features to help you find your next date partner. Here's a detailed breakdown of them all.

Stand Alone Date Offers

There are two ways to bag first dates on What's Your Price. The first and most popular way is to make offers. As much as we hate to make the comparison, think of this is as like the Buy It Now function eBay. You'll send a woman a message with your offer, and she'll either accept, reject or make a counter-offer. If she accepts, then you simply pay the fee and arrange your date with her through the messaging system on the site.

This is the easiest way to land a date through What's Your Price, and it actually helps you find dates much quicker than you would on other sites in this niche. Once the payment is made, it means you and your date partner have mutually agreed to meet up, so you don't have to go through days of small talk. It's a simple and transaction-convenient approach to the whole first date game.

Bidding System for Date Offers

The other way to land dates is through the site's auction listings. Occasionally, women will list themselves up in the auction section of this dating site, and then it's up to Generous members to bid for them. Much like any auction listing, you tend to get cheaper dates through here than you would through the stand-alone feature, but you also get women of higher status in the auction section.

We should mention that if you are the winning bidder of a particular auction, the Attractive member is not obliged to actually go on a date with you. She can refuse your payment for whatever reason, although it's rare for this to happen. Once you've won a bidding war, you can then arrange your date through the mesaging system. All financial arrangements on the date need to be covered by you too.

Powerful Search Feature

Hit the search icon in the top right hand section of the page to see the search options available. This dating site has a super efficient search function, allowing users to scour through members of the opposite category (Attractive users can only search for Generous members and vice versa). Users can search by keyword or by narrowing down users by the search filters on offer. You can filter by:

• Location
• Distance
• Photos Included
• Looking For; Dating, Friendship, Long-term, Sugar Dating, Discreet Affairs, Casual
• Age
• Height
• Smoker; Yes or No
• Drinker; Yes or No
• Relationship Status; Single, Divorced, Widowed, Separated, Married, Open Relationship
• Children; No Children, 1 Child, 2 Children, 3 or more Children
• Ethnicity
• Body Type; Slender, Athletic, Average, A Few Extra Pounds, Full Figured
• Education; High School, Some College, Associates Degree, Bachelor's Degree, Graduate Degree, Post-doctoral Degree

Credit System

As well as the bidding system, What's Your Price requires credits to send messages. Once your date is secured, you then need to arrange the finer details through the site's messaging system. Users can buy credits from the store area using credit card, debit card or Paypal. Credits can be purchased in batches and costs are lower depending on how many you purchase at once.

Every message you send requires 5 credits, but a lot a members take their conversations off the What's Your Price platform once their date is secured. This ensures that they're not paying for every message they send because the costs can quickly mount. Only men pay for messages; women are able to deliver messages and use the site's features at no cost. Additionally, all auction or stand-alone payments for the arranged date must be made through the website.

Mobile Browser Friendly

What's Your Price works incredibly well on mobile phones - something that not other dating sites can claim. While the site doesn't have a dedicated mobile app, it doesn't matter because the creators have done an excellent job of transposing the site onto mobile browser. Every feature is available, including browsing, bidding and sending offers to the Attractive group for dates. It never feels clunky and the site is optimized for maximum performance.

This means you don't have to miss out on matching while you're on the move. An app would be nice, but given how efficient the phone browser version is, it's not a big deal. You can also configure the browser version to send notifications to your home screen if there's any update in activity. This function is available for both iOS and Android phones (and you can configure the desktop version to do this too).

Pros of WhatsYourPrice

What's great about What's Your Price? Here's a short list of everything we love about this Internet site.

Many Attractive Members

When we say there's attractive girls on What's Your Price, we're not talking about solid sixes or high sevens. Some of these luscious beauties are perfect tens. Supermodel figures, gorgeous faces, plump lips, fake breasts, phat asses. Sugar baby sites are notorious for their outstandingly beautiful babes and What'sYourPrice is no exception. While you might not find your special someone, you'll find more than enough babes you'll want to spend the night with.

But of course, beauty is in the eye of the beholder (or the beer holder in some cases). So, as well as conventionally attractive women, there's also a good choice of women across the entire spectrum of physical appearances. Plump babes, alternative chicks, skinny beauties, pale redheads, Asian beauties, ebony girls, hot moms, mature ladies and many more. While Instagram-material makes up around 60% of the user base, there's still a varied choice.

No Subscription Fee

If there's one thing that puts people off dating sites it's the requirement to pay for access upfront. It's only really scam sites that do this since those types of platforms have something to hide. However, What's Your Price does no such thing. It allows members of both categories (Attractive and Generous) to come in, take a look around and see what all the fuss is about. This way, you can get a better idea of whether the site is for you or not.

Not only that, but you don't even need a subscription fee to place bids or make offers. The costs only come in once you've committed to a bid or an offer, much like any transaction. It's really the perfect way to run an online dating service, and since the concept of What's Your Price can be a little difficult to wrap your head around at first, it pays to be able to try it before you buy it.

Innovative Concept

We've been through a lot of dating sites in our time, but very few have come up with such an innovative and efficient concept as What's Your Price has. When you think about it, it's actually a pretty simple idea at its core: women put more effort into looking good than men do, so they should be compensated for their time and energy. In today's market of endless and quirky dating site gimmicks, we're surprised it took someone so long to think of this one.

One of the arguments that constantly pops up is: how is paying for first dates any different from sex work? It's certainly a grey area that has a few crossovers, but the difference is that when you hire an escort, sex is expected. That's the whole point of sex work. But with What's Your Price, sex is never agreed upon beforehand. We're sure some of these women DO end up sleeping with their date partners, but it's not a prerequisite to accept offers from them.

More Than A Sugar Baby Site

What's Your Price often gets labeled as a sugar daddy platform, but that's not really accurate. Of course, the specific service of What's Your Price lends itself to the world of sugar relationships, with wealthy men paying for the companionship of young beautiful women, but there's a lot more going on than just sugar arrangements. Many of the women have no interest in sugar dating but still want to be compensated for their time, which we think is fair enough.

There's actually a huge presence of women on What's Your Price who are indeed looking for their remarkable someone. They don't just want casual sex, financial support or a one night stay. No one can deny that in today's world, money is tight. Everything expensive as hell, and some of these women don't have the spare income to date. But if their dates are subsidized by someone richer than them, it gives them more time and freedom to actually date.

Detailed Profiles

The general rule when it comes to dating profiles is "sell yourself." Here on What's Your Price, the women are quite literally selling themselves, so they've got a huge incentive to fill out their profiles in as much detail as possible. You won't get any one-line bios or a single selfie profile photo on here. The ladies on here actually put the effort in.

Likewise, it's the same for men. Once they've landed a date, they have to do what they can to actually convince the woman they're worth meeting up with. Men are even worse culprits when it comes to bare profiles, so any potential Attractive users on What's Your Price will be happy to know that men put much more effort into their profiles than usual.

Cons of WhatsYourPrice

What don't we love about What's Your Price? Here are a few things that stood out to us as negatives.

Some Fake Profiles and Scammers

A site where men pay for the company of real women? The whole concept of What's Your Price is a scammer's dream. That's why the site is inundated with scam users and fake profiles from doubtful accounts looking to make an easy buck. The lack of any in-depth verification procedure also really aids scammers in their deceitful ventures, so you'll need to pay close attention to any other members you chat with to ensure you aren't getting fleeced.

Like all sites, you can spot fake profiles if you look hard enough. Before you send money, spend time talking to them. Ask them questions about their daily life, their interests, their ideal first date and such things. You can easily ensure they're not a bot, but it takes a little more attention to discern the real people from the fakes. If you suspect any fake accounts, report them to the admins straight away.

Money Hungry Ladies

We can't generalize. A lot of women are on here because they genuinely enjoy the dating process. They love being sugar babies. They want to be compensated for the effort they make when it comes to dating. However, What's Your Price naturally attracts the kind of women who just want to make easy money. After all, all dates are paid for in advance, so it's an easy way for them to rake in the cash.

That's not to say there's anything wrong with what these women do. If a man is willing to pay them for their companionship, who are they to say no? But there can sometimes be expectations when it comes to dating, and that expectation is that the woman wants something more. Some of the women on What's Your Price simply go on dates with these men because they're paid to do so, using What's Your Price like it's an escort site.

No App

App lovers will be sad to know there's no WhatsYourPrice app. What's Your Price doesn't really need a mobile app because the phone browser is so perfectly optimized, but an app would be nice because it would allow users to get notifications of their matchmaking updates. However, as we mentioned earlier, the browser version uses fundamental software to give you notifications on your home screen without the need for an app.

But still, a mobile app would show that What's Your Price had put additional care into their client service. Dating sites with mobile apps tend to be the more reputable, mainstream platforms, so an app would really help lend some legitimacy to the What's Your Price name. After all, the review rating for the site is quite low because a lot of people consider What's Your Price to be a little scammy (even though it's not).

WhatsYourPrice Membership Price

Whats Your Price doesn't have specific premium membership features like so many other online dating sites. The process is quite strange in that once you've successfully won a first date with a member, you'll then have to purchase credits in order to chat to her. It's a little irritating especially as you'll already be paying for her companionship, but these are the rules.

Here's what credit batches cost:

• 100 credits - $50 ($0.50 per credit)
• 500 credits - $150 ($0.30 per credit)
• 1000 credits - $250 ($0.25 per credit)

Every message you then exchange with your date partner will cost credits. Additionally, it also costs money to "unlock" the conversation with them. This unlocking cost also depends on the amount of your monetary bid.

• For prices between $5 to $49, 10 credits are required to unlock communications
• For prices between $50 to $99, 15 credits are required to unlock communications
• For prices over $100, then it will cost 20% of the whole sum (for example, a $200 date will cost 40 credits to unlock communication).

Final Verdict: Is What's Your Price worth trying?

What's Your Price offers a new and innovative approach towards dating online. While the dating game is certainly in dire need of modernization, What's Your Price's gimmick could definitely rub some people the wrong way. There are many people who believe no one should have to pay to go on a date, and there are others who believe that monetary transactions are at the core of all relationships. If you believe the latter, What's Your Price will work for you.

If you don't mind this transactional approach to romance, What's Your Price is a goldmine of attractive women who'll date anyone for the right price. Money might not be able to buy you love, but it can help you meet women and possibly woo them into the bedroom. However, there's no guarantee you'll get anything other than a one-on-one date even after you've won a date offer, so don't expect What's Your Price to function as an unofficial escort site.

If you're a young woman looking to make money, What's Your Price is the best dating site for it. If you're a Generous member who wants a sugar baby, then What's Your Price will deliver on that front too. If you've got the money, you'll be pleasantly surprised what you'll find on What's Your Price. For those seeking hookups and love, go elsewhere, but for those looking for a sugar relationship, What's Your Price is a great site to do so.
