Our Review

Fling is a casual dating site where men and women of all races and sexual orientations can post personals to search for anything from a casual one-night stand to a summertime fling.

It has currently around 3 million members around the globe, with a vast number of users based in the US, Russia and Australia.

Fling Member Structure

You get a personal profile which you can fill out

Members are looking for hookups, one-night stand and flings
The average age of members is 30-35

There are no pretensions when it comes to Fling – from the sexually explicit profile photos to its live sex cam girls; the site is proud of its focus on casual sex and hookups. This is a place for people to gather and be comfortable with their sexuality, whether it be showing their naked body to strangers on the internet, to experimenting with various sexual experiences like group sex, couple swinging, BDSM and more.

This isn’t a website for people who are looking for serious, long-term relationships although for sure some of the members have developed feelings for their Friends with Benefits or a casual fling. However, that is not the actual focus of the site so adjust your expectations accordingly.

Age Distribution

18-24

Signing Up at Fling

Although Fling advertises itself as an international dating site, it doesn’t accommodate users from certain countries. If Fling does not support your country, you will be redirected to WebDate, another personals site from Global Personals Media.

If you can access the Fling website, you can sign up in one easy step. Just input your gender, your preferred match gender, your age, zip code, desired password and email address, and you’re good to go. Fling will send an email, which you need to click to verify your account, but you can start using the site’s features even without verifying it.

Making Contact on Fling

Fling probably has more free search options and filters compared to other dating websites. The basic search function allows you to search for other members using filters for age, country, zip code, sexual preference and gender. You can also limit your search to users who are currently online, users with photos, verified accounts, and those who are currently video streaming.

If these are not enough, you can access the advanced search options and look for members according to their eye color, height, mezinarodni seznamovacÃ aplikace hair color, body type, race and other specific profile fields. You can also search for users according to what they’re into – whether it be threesomes or friends with benefits. You can also use the text field to type in keywords that you want your match to have in their profile.

You will get notifications whenever someone sends you a message; however, you cannot see the actual message unless you upgrade your account to premium. Similarly, you can’t send messages to other users if you are a free user.

Fling Profile Quality

When it comes to profile information, Fling is very comprehensive. Aside from the information that it gathers from you during the registration phase, there are several text fields that you can fill up afterwards. There are fields for basic information such as height, age, body type, race, income, religion, spoken languages, living arrangements and profession. Aside from those, there are also text fields available – you can divulge what you’re comfortable with (regular weekend sex or one-time flings) and your interests (threesomes, friends with benefits or experimenting).

To view another user’s profile, you need to purchase a premium account. However, you can clearly see their profile picture even as a free user.

Fling Real Life Review

I’m female, and I’m from a conservative family, so I can’t explore my sexuality freely without being labelled horrible things. When I joined Fling, I finally found a place where I could be me and not get mocked for it. At first, I was scared because I was doing something new, but in time I grew comfortable with it, especially since I’m not afraid that my secret life will get blown. Of course, I had to pay for my membership, but I guess it was okay since I could live my life freely. It feels so exciting posting pictures of my body and getting compliments from both men and women! I could get hookups whenever I feel the craving for it, and I can do it in complete privacy. – Joan, Female Server, 29

Design and Usability

Fling’s design is extremely simple – some people might even find it lacklustre. However, the site’s design complements its, perfectly. Since the site has a plethora of features available, having a complex design would just clutter and complicate things. The simple design allows the site to keep things accessible, yet organised.
