Our verdict on each
BritsWithBenefits
BritsWithBenefits suits adults who want a UK site built around discreet adult connections and are comfortable paying per credit pack. Its free sign-up and member browsing, an discreet adult connections audience, and a prepaid credits for chat features model make the costs predictable, and 18+ age check, ID if required keeps it adults only.
Fling
Fling suits adults who want casual hookups and can budget a mid-range subscription, since monthly fees of $14.95 to $29.95 sit above the site median. Free registration, browse and search, plus ID and selfie age verification, give it more substance than a credit-only app, while auto-renewal asks for a calendar reminder.

Pros and cons
BritsWithBenefits
Pros
- free sign-up and browse members means you can look around and judge the audience before spending anything
- 18+ age check, ID if required is a real gate, not a checkbox on a profile
- Chat features run on prepaid credits for chat features, so spending is tied to the chats you actually use
Cons
- Support runs on email only, so questions about credits wait for a written reply
- credit packs, valid 6 months means credits expire on a set schedule, so an unused pack can lapse
- Convo features cost prepaid credits for chat features spend rather than a flat subscription, which suits irregular users less than regular ones
Fling
Pros
- Free registration, browse and search all members (Free registration, browse and search all members), so you can look through the member list before paying anything.
- Age verification runs on ID plus a selfie, with a webcam badge on the profile (ID plus selfie age verification; webcam badge), and the US App Store listing stands at App Store (US) 4.5/5 from 685 ratings.
- Support covers email, phone and help centre, so phone and email are both there rather than email alone.
Cons
- Monthly fees of $14.95 to $29.95 sit above the site median of €14, and cheaper brands such as EroFantasie list €0.67 to €1.50.
- Memberships auto-renew, and cancelling has to be completed before the renewal date (Auto-renews; cancel 24 hours before renewal), so a forgotten change carries the next term.
- Spending can come through credit packs in the app as well as paid monthly plans (Credit packs in app; also paid monthly plans), so the total depends on what you top up on top of a membership.

Questions about each
BritsWithBenefits
What does BritsWithBenefits cost?+
Buying works through credit packs, valid 6 months rather than a monthly subscription, so there is no set fee to compare against a tiered site. Chat features are drawn from prepaid credits for chat features, which means the total spend follows how much you actually use. Your monthly figure therefore depends on your own message volume, not on a listed plan.
What can I do for free?+
free sign-up and browse members covers account creation and browsing members, so you can read profiles and judge the audience without paying. Convo features are the part that costs, because they draw on prepaid credits for chat features. Free access lets you decide before any credit is bought.
Fling
What does Fling cost per month?+
Monthly fees run $14.95 to $29.95, above the median of €14 across the brands compared here. Memberships are sold as 1, 6, 12 and 18-month memberships; feature profile, and credit packs bought in the app (Credit packs in app; also paid monthly plans) add spending on top of a plan if you use the paid extras.
Can I use Fling without paying?+
Yes for the basics. Free registration, browse and search all members, so registration, browsing and searching every member cost nothing, and a paid membership is a choice about extras rather than the price of entry. Budget for it if you plan to use credit packs, which are bought separately in the app (Credit packs in app; also paid monthly plans).
