Xdating website is designed for those looking for hookups. If you and your wife/husband are looking for swinger couples, this is an excellent place for that too. The site seems to want its members to succeed in their sexual life, offering everything it can. There are few Xdating reviews out there, and most of them have only a bit of info on this site. Thus, this review should serve as a useful guide for anyone interested in the website.
You can only view Xdating in English. Still, the site is intuitive and uses basic English grammar, making it easy for people who are not fluent in English.
This information is not disclosed anywhere.
This information is not disclosed explicitly. If you click on “Careers” on the site, you will be redirected to Global Personals Media. If that is the company that owns Xdating, then Xdating is located in Miami Beach, Florida.
There is no clear information about that. One can only suppose that the site has more than ten years since its Copyright Policy was last updated in 2009.
Yes. Although the site only works in English, people worldwide can register and enjoy the platform.
Xdating does not offer much to its users. Below are two features of the site that are not exactly new but are interesting enough to be called “special features.”
This place displays all the singles and couples that fit your criteria. You can start to meet new people who want to have a good and sexy time from there.
At Xdating, you can visit profiles and like them. When you like someone’s profile and are liked back by the same person, you two “match.” People who matched you will appear in the match section.
There is no official data concerning how many people are on the site. Still, you can expect the site to have many people from all around the world, as the site is fully open. Most people on the site are only looking for hookups. They want to get laid with someone who knows how to enjoy life. There are also couples looking for swingers. You can expect to talk to people from other countries if your filters are not set for only people near you.
The site seems to gather a lot of young people as its primary audience. Still, there are older people, too. Mostly everyone is free to give the site a try when looking for casual sex.
Once you register on the site, you receive many messages from different members. This fact is very suspicious and seems like there are many fake profiles or scammers. There must be real members on the site, but anyone should take care of suspicious messages and links.
Xdating offers its users a mobile app to make things easier on the go. It presents the same functionalities as the site. It also promises not to use geolocation to preserve privacy. Chat surely looks more beautiful on the app version, and it is better to use the app than to access the site on a mobile browser. In case you were curious, the app is available only for Android.
In case you are accessing the platform through the site, it is recommended to access it on the computer. There is nothing extraordinary about the website; its design and visuals are not outstanding. The site works fine most of the time, but there have been complaints about glitches that make the user log back in.
The app was designed specifically for phones. If you want to use it on your computer, there are ways of emulating an Android operating system, but that is too much trouble.
The main browsers were tested, and all of them could access Xdating just fine. If you use Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, or Opera, you shall be fine. Other less used browsers should have no problems too.
Sometimes it happens for sites not to load properly. If you are facing that with Xdating, you can do the following:
If none of the above works, you can try incognito mode on your browser or VPN. Sometimes your IP is being blocked.
Xdating’s design is not the best in the world. Still, it is not super polluted, too. It delivers the basic experience that any dating or hookup website needs to provide. It is easy to find what you need. The site has only three colors; red, black, and white. This design is almost a given for hookup sites. These colors appeal to sex and discretion.
Signing up at XDating is very quick and easy. You have first to access the site (the address is xdating.com), and then click on “Let’s Play”. The next steps are:
Unfortunately, there is no option to sign up using your Facebook or Google account.
There is no “unmatch” feature, but you can silence their messages or block them if you do not want to talk to someone. If you do not wish to see someone again on the site, you can choose to hide their profile from search results.
You need to be at least 18 years old to register on this site.
When you register, the site sends a message to your email inbox.
After finishing the registration process, the site sends a message to your email inbox. In that message, there is a link which you should click on to verify your email.
Unfortunately, Xdating does not offer this possibility. You also cannot upload pictures from Facebook as other sites allow.
No, there is no room for visitors. If you want to access the site, you need to register first.
Once you register, the first option to edit your profile is adding a profile picture. Adding a good profile picture is very important since guys and girls are looking for hot people to have sex with. It is also important because, in the filters, there is an option only to show people who have a profile picture. Be sure to add a photo of yourself; otherwise, your gallery will be taken down. The site easily tracks images with copyright, per example.
You can choose a display name which you can change any time you want. That is what people will know you as. You can also add a tagline and a short bio, so people will see what you are about.
The site asks 13 basic questions. They are of various things, and after you have answered them, you can change any information you want on your profile. At your profile, you can give information about:
Beyond entering a lot of personal information, you can also upload pictures of yourself. You can upload full-body photos, even naked ones, if you feel comfortable with it.
Yes. You need to find your profile and drag the cursor over the picture you want to delete. A grey button “Edit” will appear on the right top corner of the photo. There you can find the option to delete. You can delete pictures, but remember that this kind of information is never truly erased from the Internet.
To edit your username at Xdating, find the “Edit Profile” option. There you will see very clearly where you can change your nickname.
Yes. Find “Account Settings” and then “Deactivate My Account.” Once you delete your account, you have 30 days to reverse this action. After 30 days, your account gets permanently deleted.
There are two different options to hide on Xdating. You can simply hide from search and still receive messages from friends. In a more extreme case, you can make your profile inactive. That way, you will not be able to do anything at the site. You will not appear on searches and will not be able to send or receive messages. Your membership will still be active, though.
You can change your bio or details on your profile. Data collected by the site is impossible to delete. All you can do is download your data to know what was collected.
Be careful about the kind of information you post about yourself on dating/hookup sites.
Yes, this is one fun option to use in easing the task of finding yourself the right match; however, there are steps to follow for this.
You can see a list of matches, which is not the same, but it is close enough.
There is a bar at the top of the site where you can find the “Search” option. When you drag your cursor over it, a drop-down menu will show with the following options:
You can only see if someone likes you when you receive a match.
How to send and receive messages on the website? This feature is a must-have to take your interaction to the next level; read below to see how it can be achieved.
First of all, messaging is restricted to paying members only. When you have an active membership, you need to go to the person’s profile with whom you want to chat. Then click on the message button and send “hi”.
When navigating the site, there is a column on the right side of the screen that shows recent conversations. From there, you can pick who you want to send a message to. If you are just starting to use the site, you need to find a profile and send a message. Alternatively, you can wait until someone sends messages your way.
No. You need to upgrade your account to be able to send messages.
There is a column on the right side of the site that shows you all your recent conversations.
At the top bar should be the Video Chat option. When you click on it, you will see a list of chat rooms. Choose the room you want to enter and click the “Join Selected Room” button.
If you do not want to receive messages from someone, you can block the person.
Xdating offers premium membership to its users. Below are the costs:
Payment on Xdating must be made with a credit card.
The only feature available for free members is browsing and searching for other people. When you are a free member, you cannot even access profiles. There is nothing relevant to do on the site as a non-paying member.
The site does not offer features that can be called special. When you acquire the paid membership, you can simply gain access to the basic features that most hookup sites offer. You can start to see other member’s profiles and chat with these hot women and men. You can like profiles that are attractive to you. If you are liked back, then you receive a match notification. This feature is everything the site offers. At least, when you are a paid member, if you purchased the 3-month pack, you will get another three months in case you do not get laid.
Yes. You can access it through the “Upgrade Now” button at the top.
To cancel your membership on Xdating, you need to click on “Help” at the bottom of the site. Then click on “Manage Membership”. You will need the website that does the billing and make a request.
Yes. In case you purchased a low-cost trial membership, it will be upgraded to the regular monthly subscription unless you cancel it.
The only thing the site’s Terms of Use mentions about a refund is the following. “If the sole reason you upgrade your membership is to correspond with one specific member and such member does not respond to your correspondence, you may request a full refund within ten (10) days of your initial membership purchase by calling customer service.” No other place on the site mentions a refund, so be sure of what you want before getting a membership.
Yes.
Only if your sole purpose in getting a membership was to talk to someone, and this someone did not answer you, you can request a full refund within ten days of your purchase.
The site does not say precisely how it appears on your billing, but they say it is very discreet.
You can pay for other people only if you give them access to your credit card information, and they use it themselves to acquire memberships. There is no feature in which you can present them with a membership.
Yes, you can see this option when you choose to upgrade.
The site looks a bit suspicious. Still, whenever you upload a fake profile on the site, a moderator takes it down and asks you only to upload pictures of yourself. Perhaps there are many real members behind the paywall.
You can protect your privacy by choosing which information gets shared with other people. You can also block members that you do not want to keep in contact with. Reporting is also available.
Probably not. The site declares that any information you share on it, even via chats, is public through its Terms of Use.
Yes, since they collect every member’s IP address.
Yes, in case the site breaks the law.
For such questions, members can contact [email protected]
It is hard to say that this site is 100% safe. In case you register on it and upgrade your membership, take care about which information you choose to share.
Its members moderate group chats.
When someone uses the site for such purposes, he or she must be immediately reported. After that, the person might lose his/her account.
When a member gets his/her account banned from the site, he/she cannot access the site and loses access to all information previously shared. Bans happen by breaking the rules of the site and harming other users. According to its Terms of Use and Privacy Policy, the site has all the right to remove members’ access to harmful behaviors.
Check if your password is correct. If that is not the case, check your email to see if you received some notification regarding your account status.
The site does not say anything about how much time bans last. Accounts banned are probably banned forever.
It is probably impossible to recover a banned account.
Protecting yourself is serious business at online dating sites. To remain safe while dating online, you should not disclose personal information. That includes your exact location and bank account details. Sometimes even your full name is best kept private.
Unfortunately, scammers always lurk around dating sites. If a member you stumbled upon seems likely to be a scammer, you can report them by finding the report button on their profile. That way, the site staff will be notified to check the profile and decide what to do next. The site also offers you the function to block members by going on their profiles and selecting the option to block them.
It is recommended that you do not post very personal info on this site or any other dating/hookup site. Even more, anywhere on the Internet.
If you post nudes, remember that things on the Internet are not easily erased. Once you post a naked picture of yourself, give it some time, and anyone will be able to see it.
There is a “Help” link at the bottom of the site. It serves as a FAQ since it answers many questions right away. In case you do not find answers to your questions there, you can look for keywords on the Privacy Policy or Terms of Use. Lastly, you can contact the site through [email protected]
In this Xdating review, it already seems evident that this hookup site is not worth the time, much less the user’s money. Plenty of other sites offer more features for the same price of membership or even at a lower price.
It is hard to believe that all profiles are real due to the high amount of messages received right after registering. Anyone genuinely looking for sex and fun should look for other options before considering signing up on Xdating.
No, it is not. It is not worth your time.
It is hard to tell about this. If you decide to register on the site and get a membership, be careful, and do not click on random links sent by other users. Use your reason as a filter for good members.
The main business of Xdating is its site. Still, there is an app that can be downloaded from the application store on any Android phone.
You can register for free, but accessing the main features requires a paid membership. That being said, the site acts more like a paid site.
It offers a platform for members to hookup. People need to register first, and after that, if they liked the platform, they must acquire a membership. Only by obtaining a membership is it possible to enjoy the main features of the site.
Like anywhere else on the Internet, this site probably has fake profiles and scammers. There are ways of detecting these people, like checking their profiles and talking to them for a while. If you notice fakes and scams, you should report them so the site can get rid of them.
In case you want to check other hookup sites and apps, below is a brief list for you. All of the sites and apps listed are very popular and 100% legit.

In this Xdating review, it became clear that the site is not worth the time or money of people trying to have sex. There is no way to enjoy the site unless you pay for it. The site should give some better features for free members, so they feel it is worth to pay for a membership. The way the Xdating website is built now, it is not very attractive.
