Hookup Sites Compared: Tinder, AdultFriendFinder and Feeld

Tinder suits every kind of dating, AdultFriendFinder is an openly explicit adult network and Feeld is made for exploring desires. HookUps.co.uk is a UK site built for one thing: hookups.

Pick the one that fits the night you want

All four can put you in touch with adults who might be up for it. What changes is how openly you can say so, how much is on show, how you pay and what other people get to see of you.

HookUps.co.uk
Casual sex dating for adults across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, online since 2015. You get match suggestions every day, a swipe of your own and members near you to browse, all in your browser with nothing to install. On your profile, people see a username and your nearest town, not your real name or address.
Tinder
The swipe app from Match Group, made for meeting someone new and seeing where it leads. You can set "short-term fun" as your relationship goal, but its rules keep sex off your public profile, so the details wait for the chat. Read HookUps.co.uk vs Tinder for the full picture.
AdultFriendFinder
An adult social network owned by FriendFinder Networks, where singles and couples share explicit photos and videos, with chat rooms, live cams, blogs and groups around the profiles. Messaging mostly comes with its paid Gold membership. The detail is in HookUps.co.uk vs AdultFriendFinder.
Feeld
A phone app that began in London, made for the curious: non-monogamy, kink, and singles and couples who link their profiles. You can connect and chat without paying, and Majestic is its one paid membership. See HookUps.co.uk vs Feeld.

Put us next to the one you use now

Each comparison sets HookUps.co.uk beside one service: how you meet people, what you can say on your profile, what you pay for and what others see of you. Each one also says plainly when the other might suit you better.

Five questions that settle it

  1. Can you say what you're after? Tinder lets you choose "short-term fun" as a goal, but its guidelines don't allow looking for sex on a public profile. Feeld gives you desire tags to fill in. On a site called HookUps.co.uk, nobody needs it spelling out.
  2. How much do you want on show? AdultFriendFinder is openly explicit: members share erotic photos and videos, and there are live cams. Feeld keeps explicit close-ups off profiles and can hide unsolicited nudes in your chats. Decide how much you want to see before you've even said hello.
  3. How do you want to pay? Tinder, AdultFriendFinder and Feeld each have a no-cost tier with paid upgrades on top. HookUps.co.uk has Classic, VIP and VIP Plus memberships, every plan is on our pricing page, and the 12-month plans don't renew.
  4. App or browser? Feeld only works as a phone app, and Tinder has phone apps and a web version. HookUps.co.uk runs in any browser, so there's nothing to download unless you add it to your home screen yourself. Our hookup app page shows how.
  5. What will people see of you? New Tinder users in the UK now record a short video selfie that Tinder matches to their photos, and Feeld's paid membership includes an Incognito mode. On HookUps.co.uk, members see your username and nearest town, never your real name, email or address, and you can block or report anyone from inside the site. Read our safety page before you meet.

Built for hookups since 2015

HookUps.co.uk is casual sex dating, plain and simple, for adults who want sex with no commitments. Women make up about three in ten of our UK members, roughly half of them aged 25 to 34, while the men lean younger. London has more of our members than anywhere else, followed by Manchester, Birmingham, Bristol and Glasgow, and around 300 people have joined in the last three months. Our locations page has a page for each town we cover.

Daily match suggestions weigh up age, gender, distance, how recently people were active and what they're looking for. VIP adds members-only chat rooms and private group chats for up to 50 people. Two more sections share our name, each with its own members and sign-up: MILF HookUps and BBW HookUps.

Choosing a hookup site: straight answers

Which hookup site should I use in the UK?

It depends on what you want from the night. If you'd like an app built for every kind of dating and you're happy to read between the lines, Tinder lets you set "short-term fun" as your goal. If you want an openly explicit adult network with chat rooms and live cams, that's AdultFriendFinder. If you're exploring non-monogamy or kink, or dating as a couple, Feeld is made for it. If you're an adult in the UK who simply wants a hookup, with daily matches near you and nothing to download, that's what HookUps.co.uk is for.

Can you find hookups on Tinder?

You can, as long as you're happy to be subtle. Tinder's relationship goals include "short-term fun", but its guidelines keep nudity, sexual content and looking for sex off your public profile, so the plans get made in the chat. Our Tinder comparison goes through it in detail.

Do I need an app to hook up?

No. Feeld only works as a phone app and Tinder has apps as well as a web version, but HookUps.co.uk runs in the browser on your phone, tablet or computer. Add it to your home screen and it opens like an app.

Is HookUps.co.uk linked to Tinder, AdultFriendFinder or Feeld?

No. Tinder belongs to Match Group, AdultFriendFinder to FriendFinder Networks and Feeld to Feeld Ltd. HookUps.co.uk is a separate UK site with no connection to any of them.
