Our Review

What's Your Price was launched in 2010 by the same founder of Seeking Arrangement, Brandon Wade. So that pretty much tells you what this website is all about.

For the clueless ones, What's Your Price turns dating into an incentive game. Instead of exchanging a few messages and getting to know one another, What's Your Price lets you get straight to the point. By placing bids (similar to an auction), the member will decide which offer he or she will decide to take. The bidding member is expected to pay the agreed-upon amount during the date, including all date expenses.

The site claims that the average number of days for a member to find a date through What's Your Price is just three days. Are you ready for it? Read our in-depth review and see you're prepared to auction your dating life on the site.

Gender Proportion

Around 5 million total bids on first dates
The average first date offer of a member $125
Women are more likely to get bids compared to men
35% of the sites population are female college students
San Francisco men are willing to spend $130 on a first date while the nationwide average is $80

As mentioned before, women have more chances of receiving (and demanding for) bids for first dates compared to the male members. Some have complained because there are women who flake right after the first date. However, others admitted that with a website named "What's Your Price?", it's already what you see is what you get.

A significant percentage of the members are female college students, surmised to be on the site to pay for their tuition. Members come mostly from the USA, followed by the UK, then Canada. According to an analysis on the offers made on What's Your Price, San Francisco is the most "generous" city, with the first date offers going up to $422.

What's Your Price used to have very specific labels: Generous for those bidding for dates, and Attractive for those receiving the bids. It went without saying, but the Generous members were usually men and the Attractive members were usually women. Though those labels seem to have been scrapped, these two groups are still dominated by the respective genders they started out with.

Signing Up

Register for free with few easy steps
Sign up to bid for dates or be paid to date
Basic information will be needed upon signing up
Some fields can be edited later
Confirm your email to complete your registration

Upon registration, you will be presented with two questions: about your gender; and your purpose on the site. Your options can either be to bid on dates or get paid for dates.

After that, you will be granted access to the site. Though a banner on the top will continue to remind you to confirm your email address, you can start browsing the website with limited usability.

If you choose to complete your profile details, you will be redirected to a page where ALL fields are required. You have to provide your location, ethnicity, body type, physical characteristics, education, income, and many more. You have nothing to worry about since you can edit the information afterwards.

Making Contact

Thoroughly complete and verify your registration to maximise all the features especially messaging
Send winks for free
Bid with a minimum amount of 5$
Go as high as you want since there will be no maximum limit when it comes to the bid
Bids can be countered
Messaging features will be activated once there is an accepted or unlocked offer

There is a chatroom

After verifying your profile, completing profile details, and adding a profile photo, your messaging feature will be unlocked. However, you can exchange messages only to with accepted or unlocked offer or bid.

Even without credits, members can get other members' attention by sending winks.

With a minimum amount of 5$, you can have the chance to win a date if you are a bidder. A receiver of the bid can earn much money without any limitations.

Counterbidding is allowed which allows members to play with the price range and interact and show how interested they are to the other member.

There's no beating around the bush: if you're a man wanting to get paid for dates, you'd be hard-pressed to get one bid in a week. Women on the other hand, in addition to receiving bids, can also offer you their preferred amount (counter-bid) but you're still going to pay. This has been dynamic on the site for a while, and we don't see it ending anytime soon. The relationships that result from this site are usually those of the sugaring nature, but love might come from it as well.

Profile Quality

Describe yourself in more than 20 characters to attract more profile visitors
You only have limited access to the site's features unless you verify your profile and add a public profile photo.
Their support team has to approve profile photos before they can be active, but this won't always guarantee low numbers of fake profiles.
Other profile details can be added or edited later

Profile information is quite detailed. Members are required to answer the questions about body type, ethnicity, height, relationship, children, education, drinking and smoking habits, religion, occupation, income, and interests. You can choose interests between dating, friendship, long-term, sugar dating, discreet affair, or casual. Get two boxes to "describe yourself" and "describe your ideal first date", both with a minimum 20-character limit.

What's Your Price's mission: straight to the point and gets you on your date. Putting accurate information on those fields can be a big help on how you can win real dates.

Real Life Review

"The first time I went on a date with a guy from What's Your Price, I was terrified. I thought it was a scam. But then he took me to a cocktail bar that I couldn't afford to look at normally. I've been using it since then to pay off my textbooks and bills. Like regular dates, there are good ones and there are bad ones. Really, the only difference is the bidding involved. You just have to use your instincts in order to stay safe. My tip is to always, always go to a public place on a first date. I've had to be explicit upfront about my boundaries even from the messaging stage because some of the men here seem to think that sex is part of the deal. Well, it can be, but we have to talk about it before the date." - Brianna, 23

Design and Usability

Like its minimal features, What's Your Price has a minimalist design and layout. Despite being 8 years in the business, it looks modern. The homepage is dedicated to showing you the members who are currently online near your area. There are only four additional functions: the search option, your favourites, your bids, and your messages. That's all. It's straightforward and user-friendly. What's Your Price's premise is: it will help you land the first date. If it doesn't work out, then find other women on the site. Then the cycle repeats.

Editors Conclusion

What's Your Price has a set dynamic between its male and female members. Women get full access to the features and dominate the getting-paid-for-dates group. Men, on the other hand, have to pay for everything. Besides the amount that was bid plus the date expenses, men also have to pay an additional fee just to unlock messaging with a member who has accepted his offer. It's up to you to decide whether this is a bit too polarizing or it's to be expected for a site like this. Overall, What's Your Price fulfills its purpose. For the men out there willing to spend dough and for the women who want to make sure their time spent preparing for a date is compensated properly, try out this site for free.
