MySugarDaddy Review (2026): European Sugar Dating on Credits

Quick verdict: In short, this MySugarDaddy review finds a German-made sugar dating site that claims more than 7 million members and calls itself the market leader in Europe. Registration and browsing are free; starting a chat needs credits or a VIP membership, and card charges appear as SDC Ventures GmbH.

MySugarDaddy, often shortened to M|SD, connects sugar daddies with sugar babies looking for what it calls real sugar relationships built on mutual respect and lifestyle. It is available in eight languages and has expanded into the US, with city pages for New York, Miami, Chicago, Los Angeles and Houston.

Its help centre is clear that online-only relationships are not what the site is for: arrangements depend on real dates together. It also says its verification team filters out fake profiles, scammers and sex workers, and approves photos and welcome messages before they go live.

Basic membership is free and includes browsing, viewing profile pictures, sending kisses and asking questions from a list. To chat, one member has to unlock the other, which costs credits. Basic members pay 20 credits per unlock; VIP members pay 5 and get 50 credits each month, plus extras such as VIP photos, seeing who favourited them, advanced search and hiding online status.

VIP comes in 1, 3, 6 and 12-month terms and renews automatically unless cancelled. Diamond is a monthly premium tier for sugar daddies with unlimited unlocks and the ability to create events. Credit packs come in 150, 500 and 1,000 credits, with a 50-credit pack for sugar babies only. Prices are shown inside the site and app, so we do not quote them; independent reviewers have called the memberships pricey.

New members confirm their email, and the help centre also covers SMS verification and an optional reality and ID check under "Are you real?" in your profile. A check-mark badge marks verified members. ID documents submitted for checks are not stored, the site says, and you can blank out ID number, surname and street name.

Chats, photos and voice notes stay inside the platform, so you do not need to hand over a phone number or email. The help centre also explains that "rinsing", selling photos and similar, is a topic it regulates, and you can block or report members at any time.

You can pay by card, instant bank transfer or SEPA direct debit, and in exceptional cases by bank transfer or PayPal through support. Card payments show as SDC Ventures GmbH, direct debits as Novalnet AG. To stop VIP renewing, open Settings from your profile menu and end the membership, or use the public contract-cancellation page without logging in. Diamond also renews monthly until cancelled.

Independent reviewers reported frustrating sign-up and login glitches, including emails that did not arrive. If that happens, check your spam folder; the site itself warns confirmation emails can take up to 30 minutes.

If you want a stricter, more upscale sugar site, our SugarDaddyMeet review covers a long-running US rival. For discreet dating, see the Ashley Madison review, and for casual hookups the AdultFriendFinder review.

MySugarDaddy is one of the more organised sugar dating sites: big in Europe, transparent about what costs credits and clear about cancelling. You will pay to talk, though, and the arrangement is built for in-person dates. If what you really want is attention and conversation without negotiating an arrangement, an AI companion on AI Angels is far simpler.

MySugarDaddy does more than many dating sites: photos and welcome texts are checked, SMS verification and an optional ID check are available, and personal contact details never need to leave the platform. Verification confirms identity, not intentions. Never send money or gift cards to someone you have not met, be cautious with anyone who wants to move off the site quickly, and meet in a public place first.
