Questions about each
Fetisch.de
How much does Fetisch.de cost, and what is included at no charge?+
The pricing model is free, and the plan list is Free, Premium, VIP, Dominatrix. The core of the site, Free registration, profiles, messages, chat, forum, is available without a paid tier, so nothing has to be spent to have a profile, browse or write a message. Paid options add extras on top of that base rather than unlocking basic contact.
How does billing work, and can I get a refund?+
Terms are Auto-renews; 14-day withdrawal; cancel to term end. That means a paid plan renews on its own, there is a withdrawal period after signing up, and a cancellation takes effect at the end of the term rather than immediately. Readers who want to stop should decide before a renewal rather than after one.
TransDate
Who is TransDate designed for?+
TransDate focuses on Trans women, crossdressers, sissies, doms/subs. Its stated dating niches cover trans, fetish, and casual dating under trans, fetish and casual, giving adults a narrow mix instead of a general audience.
How large is the stated audience?+
The site claims 100,000+ trans women members (site claim, 2026). This is a stated audience figure, so it describes the claimed size of the trans women membership rather than the activity or intentions of individual members.
