Screened profiles, run as an online lounge

4.1

Note: Japanese sugar dating apps require a Japanese mobile number for SMS verification and a government-issued ID for mandatory age verification. Signing up from outside Japan is generally not possible; foreign residents in Japan can usually register with a passport or residence card.

Editor's verdict

Its defining feature is that staff review nicknames, bios and photos before they appear. Messaging requires age verification with a government-issued ID, and the operator is registered with the Tokyo Metropolitan Public Safety Commission. Pricing drops with longer commitments — down to ¥4,500/mo on the 12-month web plan. Member numbers are not published, so the scale is hard to judge.
