To find a partner for a night of naughty, no-strings-attached fun as quickly as possible, you’ll need to choose an efficient and pretty well-frequented website – and that’s exactly what AdultFriendFinder is. It stands tall as one of the main references in online hookup sites. It owes much of its popularity to the famous brand “Friend Finder”, and this popularity means its users can make use of a huge and diverse community. However, do all of these great-on-paper claims actually prove to be true in practice? I tested the site for a whole month, and I’m now ready to give you the most accurate review of AdultFriendFinder I possibly can.

Adult Friend Finder Overview

To give you my opinion on this site very briefly, since I’ll give my final verdict at the end, I’d first like to say that I particularly liked this site because of the vast and interesting community (more than 96 million people worldwide use Adult Friend Finder). This aspect allowed me to meet people fairly quickly, even when I was on the move. On the other hand, people on this site are sometimes very… direct in nature, and make it very clear that they’re immediately looking to meet up, or to step it up to webcam chatting for some online fun. Personally, although I appreciated the directness of its users, some may not, so I feel like it’s worth mentioning.

 

An introduction to AdultFriendFinder

The AdultFriendFinder platform is the sexy and overall more generalised version of the “FriendFinder” brand sites that offer specific sexy meet-ups like Gayfriendfinder, AsianFriendFinder, etc. As a result, you can find all kinds of profiles and people all looking for some naughty entertainment.

Immediately within the first few minutes of browsing, you’ll  get to see loads of sexy photos, especially enticing profile pictures that’ll make you want to know more. If you’re already married and looking for some extra-marital activity, read my review of Ashley Madison too.

Here, users have a variety of expectations, but they pretty much all revolve around sex.

AdultFriendFinder has several million members all over the world, and has been around for over 20 years now. If all this already makes you want to join, read the rest of this review to answer the question on everyones lips: does it actually work?

Registering on AdultFriendFinder

Registration on AFF is very quick and easy: to register, you’ll be asked to pick a username, then if you’re a couple / single person, and to clarify your gender(s), as well as your date of birth, region, the type of partner you are looking for, and finally your email address and desired password. Once the registration process is complete, a validation link will be sent to your email. Clicking on this link will allow you to process, and create your profile as well as start browsing the site from top to bottom.

 

Adult Friend Finder Features

The basics

After completing the free registration, you’ll immediately find yourself immersed in a website that offers a huge range of dating and hookup possibilities. On the main page, a selection of some of the hottest and most popular profiles are displayed. You’ll also find sections for currently online members, new registrants, and more. You’re spoilt for choice pretty much as soon as you register, there’s so many attractive and active people.

But at this stage, we have still only scratched the surface: the platform offers a multitude of features that you’ll want to try out.

Something we really like are the search filters. Depending on your tastes, expectations, fetishes or desires, you can make fairly precise and accurate searches on AdultFriendFinder. For example, you can specifically search for someone who wants to be submissive, and who likes to play naughty games with leashes and collars. Or maybe, you want to take part in a threesome with a hot young couple ? Pretty much anything is possible with AFF, so don’t waste time!

Another feature I really loved was the Hot or Not system, which is kind of like Tinders “swipe” function. Basically, you scroll through all the profiles available to you and just select Hot or Not in rapid fire mode. It’s totally subjective of course, and being honest is important. If two people select “Hot” on eachothers profiles, then it’s a match, and you can begin talking.

Getting in touch with other members

Communication is obviously the most important detail when it comes to online dating / hookup sites. How you get in touch with potential future partners is crucial, and Adult Friend Finder has plenty of solutions. First, you can use the “live chat” feature, which is kind of like Facebook Messenger, and pops up in the bottom right corner of the screen. There’s also messaging, which is more like old fashioned emailing and less intense that instant messaging. You can even send people “winks” to get the ball rolling if you’re a little shy! But my personal favourite means of communication is the live webcam chatting feature. Stuff just gets really hot, really fast!

You can even watch live shows with other people: some creators choose to go live to their friends and sometimes even to the public. Join the chatroom to be part of the audience and watch men women and couples have some fun, and all of it livestreamed.

What kind of people can you expect to meet?

Let’s move on now to the type of people you’ll most likely meet through AdultFriendFinder.

The AFF community

The goal of this site is pretty straighfoward: to help people meet partners for sex. Therefore, you’re almost guaranteed to find men and women are interested in one night stands, and not usually in finding love (although it does happen!).

The main advantage of AdultFriendFinder is that it has a very large and active community. You’ll be spoilt for choice among many different kinds of people and profiles, and have no trouble whatsoever finding the type of person you want to fuck straight away – in fact I guarantee it!

With the goal in mind, don’t be surprised or taken aback if people get straight to the point as soon as you engage in conversation. Everyone knows why they’re here, and members don’t often want to spend their time with idle chit-chat and conversations about plants or pets.

Male-to-female ratio

AdultFriendFinder is one of the few sex dating sites that has as many women as men, and that’s one of it’s largest selling points. Althought it may have less free features than some other hookup sites, it also has a huge amount of active female users, something many hookup sites and apps can’t say. It’s almost exactly a 50/50 split, give or take a few percent.

Moderation

Regarding how highly moderated the website is, I won’t lie to you, there are a certain number of fake profiles. But to be honest, the site has been in existence for 20 years and has more than 96 million subscribers, so it’s pretty much to be expected that some would be fakes – and they’re often very easy to spot anyway. Try reverse image searching a profile picture if you’re concerned, it’ll soon show up if it’s a fake.

The moderators do work very hard to keep the number of fake profiles to a minimum, so that’s a good thing.

Upgrading to AdultFriendFinder Gold

Registration may be totally free, however to have access to all the features we’ve previously talked about, you’ll need to upgrade your account. Once you have registered, you’re free to fill up your profile with a little info about yourself and by picking a profile picture (or even a few different pictures). All other fun stuff requires a Gold subscription. You can’t read incoming messages, or send any new ones if you don’t bust out your credit card. The free registration is very limited, it’s basically just to get your mouth watering a little and to entice you – and it works. The girls I saw were so hot and so horny, I wasn’t mad I had to drop a little cash to get to talk to them.

AdultFriendFinder Gold pricing

As is often the case with websites like this, membership is required for all men and women. However, the rates are, in my opinion, pretty decent for a site of such high quality. In addition, the longer period you subscribe to Gold for, the less each month will cost you.

Here are the different rates for a Gold account:

• 1 month at 29.95 € / month
• 3 months at 25.95 € / month (total: 77.85 €)
• 1 year at 14.95 € / month (total: 179.40 €)

 

How does payment work ?

On AdultFriendFinder, you can choose to pay for your gold subscription either with your credit card, or by Direct Debit. They accept multiple card types, such as Visa, Mastercard, Discover and Amex.

AFF Guarantees all payments are 100% safe and secure, and assures all Gold members that AdultFriendFinder is safely run in the EU by Ventnor Enterprise Limited. They even supply toll-free phone numbers for US, UK and AU residents if you have any questions or concerns about payments, or any other of the websites features.

AdultFriendFinder: Pros and Cons

To give you a better overview of my opinion on AdultFriendFinder, I thought i’d list the pros and cons that were the most important to me while using the platform. So, without further ado, here are, in my opinion, the best and worst things about AdultFriendFinder.

AdultFriendFinder user reviews

Most of the user experiences I’ve read are pretty positive. People really appreciate the ease and speed at which they can meet people close to home for a quickie. The quality and overall mood of the website, the large community and the diversity of the profiles are all things I saw repeatedly mentioned in a positive light.

The only criticism people seem to have is that there are too many fake profiles, and people wish free accounts were more in-depth.

My final thoughts after a 1 month trial

When you use a dating site, you want to meet people quickly: this is often the number one criteria any user is looking for. AdultFriendFinder is at the top of the list when it comes to providing that service.

So we’ve established that the classic booty calls are obviously quick and easy, but I loved the fact that I could satisfy my every fantasy and desire on one single platform. It’s a great all-rounder with a plethora of fun features and loads of active, horny users.

So you get it – this website is popular – and for good reason. Everyone is on there for one reason, and everyone gets it fast. Within my one month of testing out the site, I had no less than five real-life sexual encounters thanks to AFF, not to mention all the fun I had webcam chatting with some of the hottest chicks I’ve ever seen! I was literally contacted as soon as I signed up by a girl in my town, and the next day I woke up in her bed.

After that, I met people with ease. Even if some of them are a bit slow to reply, most of the women I met who are available were pretty eager to meet up, even in spite of my unconventional tastes (I’m in to some pretty hardcore S&M).

FAQ

To help you use the site as best as possible, here are some frequently asked questions we’d like to respond to :

How do I contact AdultFriendFinder customer service?

AdultFriendFinder customer service is available 24/7: you can contact them at any time via the contact forms in the contact section, or by phone if you live in the UK, the US or Australia.

How do I unsubscribe from AdultFriendFinder?

Is AdultFriendFinder a scam?

The website has been around for over 20 years. With such a long history and well documented international presence, it’s hard to imagine that AdultFriendFinder could be a scam. Personally, I had many fun encounters thanks to AFF, so no, I wouldn’t call it a scam at all.

If, like me, you want to have new and exciting sexual experiences with open-minded and insanely hot members, AdultFriendFinder is an excellent platform for one-night stands!
