How It Works
18+ OnlyWannaDate? is inclusive 18+ dating built around real meetups: date seekers and date companions connect, plan, and meet in safe public settings. Many profiles use traditional dating only; companions may also share Date Style Levels 1-5 and date expectations on profile—or leave them blank. No escorting, prostitution, or sexual services are allowed on the platform.
We facilitate introductions and in-app messaging, but all off-platform communication, meetings, and personal arrangements are made independently between users. We do not supervise or control what happens off the platform, and we do not guarantee that any date will occur or go as expected.

- Review incoming date requests from interested date seekers
- Optional: browse opt-in date seekers and send a wink (not a date request) to invite them to view your profile
Winks (date seekers):
- Receive winks in your Winks inbox—a wink is not a date request and does not open chat
- View the companion profile and send a date request only if you choose; dismiss a wink or dismiss and block future winks from that companion
- Optional: opt in to Browse Seekers under profile settings so companions can discover you and send winks
- Only date companions send winks; only date seekers receive them in their inbox.
- Companions can wink from Browse Date Seekers (opt-in seekers), a seeker profile, or other eligible surfaces—winks never use tokens.
- There is no wink-back; if a seeker is interested, they send a date request when ready.
- Free companions: 3 winks per rolling 24-hour period. Premium companions: unlimited winks with a fair-use daily cap.
- If a seeker dismisses your wink, you can re-wink after a 7-day cooldown. Seekers can also block future winks anytime.

Platform fees (tokens/subscriptions) are charged for access to features only. In-app messaging is for planning logistics only (time, place, safety) and must not be used to negotiate money, gifts, allowances, or services. Any lawful personal arrangements are made independently and directly between users off-platform. WannaDate? does not arrange, broker, or handle any funds between users—we only facilitate connections.
Dates are not guaranteed. Other users may cancel, not show up, or a date may not go as planned. Off-platform conduct is solely between users, and WannaDate? is not responsible for and does not assume liability for any off-platform interactions. After you complete a platform date with someone, a new date request to that same person is available again after a 90-day cooldown (configurable by the platform). Saving profiles to your Interested profiles list is for browsing only and does not start a date. The platform is provided "as-is" without warranties. Users are solely responsible for their content and interactions. WannaDate? is a platform, not a publisher—we facilitate connections but do not create, edit, or control user-generated content.
