Our verdict

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

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.
  • Size is the selling point: the site reports 2,319,747 verified photos; millions of members.

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.
  • Support runs on email, phone and help centre only, with no live chat for quick questions.

Who it suits

  • Adults who want casual hookups, an open-minded mix and a discreet option in the same place.
  • Readers who want phone and email help, and who would weigh EroFantasie's €0.67 to €1.50 against Fling's $14.95 to $29.95 for a verified, app-based service.
  • Members comfortable buying credit packs in the app (Credit packs in app; also paid monthly plans) on top of a paid membership.

Who should look elsewhere

  • Readers after the lowest monthly figure: BDSM-baari lists €0.83 to €2.50.
  • Anyone wanting a senior-focused pool rather than a broad one: Senior.dk Dating prices at DKK 2.30.
  • Readers who would rather pay EroFantasie's €0.67 to €1.50 than Fling's $14.95 to $29.95 for a casual service.

Pricing and free tier

Fees run $14.95 to $29.95, above the site median of €14 and well above cheaper listings such as EroFantasie at €0.67 to €1.50. Registration, browsing and searching all members are free, so a paid membership buys extras rather than access to the member list. Terms come as 1, 6, 12 and 18-month memberships; feature profile, and credit packs in the app sit alongside paid monthly plans, which makes it easy to keep spending after a short commitment. In a comparison of 125 brands on monthly starting price, Fling ranks at 60.

Privacy, billing and cancelling

The site states that data is encrypted and that none of it is sold to third parties (Encrypted; no data sold to third parties). Billing follows Auto-renews; cancel 24 hours before renewal: memberships auto-renew, and cancelling has to be completed before the renewal date, so the cut-off is short and easy to miss. Privacy and billing sit in the same place for readers who weigh both, and the renewal window is the part to set a reminder for.

How it works

Fling is aimed at curious, open-minded adults and casual hookups (Curious, open-minded adults; casual hookups), not at a single lifestyle or community. Scale is the other pitch, with the site reporting 2,319,747 verified photos; millions of members. In practice that means an app where a new member can look through a large pool before deciding what to pay for, and the stated audience sets the tone of what the service is aimed at.

Members and plans

The site reports 2,319,747 verified photos; millions of members and describes its audience as curious, open-minded adults after casual hookups (Curious, open-minded adults; casual hookups). Plans come as 1, 6, 12 and 18-month memberships; feature profile, so short and long commitments sit in the same list, with a feature profile among the paid options. Paying runs through credit packs bought in the app and through paid monthly plans (Credit packs in app; also paid monthly plans), so an account can carry both a membership and a top-up habit.

Who runs it

Fling is operated by Global Personals (Global Personals) and is based in the US (US). Support runs on email, phone and help centre, covering phone and email as well as a help centre. Having a phone number alongside email is the practical part for anyone sorting out a billing or verification question, and the US base is worth remembering when you need help during your own working hours.
