Secret Benefits review

Good for
- Sugar daddies who'd rather buy credits than commit to a subscription, in the US, Canada, the UK, Australia or Ireland.
Skip it if
- You want to know who runs the site: its terms don't name a company.
Secret Benefits is the one site here that still markets itself openly as a "Sugar Daddy & Sugar Baby" site. It has no subscription: you buy credits, and a review site found that opening a conversation costs 10 credits, with 100 credits at $59. Sugar babies reportedly use it free. Credits don't renew, which makes it the low-commitment option, as our cost guide explains.
What bothered us: the terms and privacy policy give an office address in Nicosia, Cyprus but no company name, and charges are billed by a payment processor, Segpay. One review site names the owner; we couldn't confirm it. The site advertises "rigorous member verification", but its own terms say it doesn't run criminal background checks and can't guarantee member photos.
Its Trustpilot score was 1.6 out of 5 from nearly 1,000 reviews, with complaints about bots and credits spent on people who never reply. On a credit site that is the scam to watch for. Read how sugar daddy scams work before you buy a pack.
The facts
- What it costs (and who pays)
- Its FAQ says both sides can join free and features are paid with credits on a "pay-as-you-go model, avoiding subscriptions"; it publishes no prices. Charges are billed by Segpay as "segpay-sb.com". VIDA Select, a third-party review site, reported in Feb 2026 that 100 credits cost $59, 500 cost $169 and 1,000 cost $289, that opening a conversation costs 10 credits, and that sugar babies use the site free while sugar daddies buy the credits.[1][2]
- Who's on it
- Unlike Seeking, it still markets itself openly as a "Sugar Daddy & Sugar Baby" site. It says it has "millions of members" in the US, Canada, Australia, the UK and Ireland (its own claim) and is not available elsewhere. Members must be 18, and its terms bar anyone convicted of a felony or registered as a sex offender. The domain dates to 2014.[3]
- Verification & safety
- The site advertises "rigorous member verification", profile review before going live, optional video verification and private photo albums. Its own terms are more cautious: "we don't conduct criminal background checks or security screening", and it can't guarantee member photos. VIDA Select found email and phone checks required, video selfie optional, and no income checks.[1][2]
- Privacy record
- The privacy policy says it will "never provide personal information to third parties", then lists sharing with service providers, law enforcement, a buyer of the business, and partners "to deliver or develop targeted advertising", plus Google Analytics audience data. It gives no retention period, and says profiles may stay visible while an account is inactive. Have I Been Pwned lists no breach (checked Nov 2026).[4][5]
- Scams & regulators
- Its Trustpilot page showed 1.6 out of 5 from 981 reviews in Nov 2026, with Trustpilot noting the company hasn't replied to negative reviews. Common complaints: fake or bot profiles, credits spent on people who never reply, and unexplained bans. We found no lawsuit or regulator action. Trustpilot reviews are unverified user reports.[6]
