Choose MillionaireMatch if you want a relationship with a wealthy partner on equal terms, and Seeking if you want a sugar arrangement where one side openly provides support. Millionaire dating and sugar dating are often treated as the same thing. They are not. The first is about who you date, and the second is about the deal you make.
The short answer
MillionaireMatch, founded in 2001, markets itself as dating with the "rich elite". Members of either gender can pay, and its signature feature is a badge for members who prove income or assets. Seeking is a sugar dating site. Its paying members, mostly men, fund access, while women can join and message free. If you join MillionaireMatch expecting an allowance, or Seeking expecting a conventional romance, you will likely be disappointed either way.

Facts checked September 30, 2026.
Before the 2026 increase, third-party sites listed Seeking Premium at $109.99 a month and Diamond at $274.99. Those figures are out of date: from January 1, 2026, Seeking's own announcement puts Platinum at $150 for 30 days and Diamond at $375 for 30 days. Full price tables are in MillionaireMatch pricing and Seeking pricing.
Where MillionaireMatch wins
Wealth you can check. The Certified Millionaire badge requires proof of more than $200,000 in income or a $1 million bank balance, plus ID, according to DatingScout. It needs a Premium membership, and no separate fee was found. On Seeking, the verified badge comes from an optional background check, and income verification is reported by one third party but unverified.
Real apps on both stores. MillionaireMatch has an iOS app rated 4.35 out of 5 from 10,458 ratings and an Android app rated 3.9 out of 5. Seeking's app is reported only on Google Play.
A free tier that can reply. Free basic members can browse, send up to 50 winks a day and reply to messages, according to DatingScout. Free men on Seeking can browse and request private photos but cannot message.
A possible refund window. DatingScout reports a 3-day refund window, which could not be checked against the official terms. Seeking's official FAQ says all sales are final.
Where Seeking wins
It is built for arrangements. If you want clear terms about support, Seeking is designed around them. On MillionaireMatch, raising money early is likely to read as a mismatch with what members signed up for.
A clear price for many women: zero. Women can join and message free on Seeking. On MillionaireMatch, initiating messages requires Premium for anyone.
A review record that is still visible. Seeking's Trustpilot score is poor at 1.6, but it is shown. Trustpilot has disabled MillionaireMatch's rating after removing fake reviews, so there is no score to rely on at all.
Larger claimed size. Seeking claims 46 million or more members (a 2024 figure). MillionaireMatch's last published figure is 3.8 million worldwide and 2.6 million in the US, as of February 2021. Both are company claims.
Red flags on both
- Price confusion. MillionaireMatch's one-month price is listed at $70 or $100 depending on the source, and Trustpilot reviewers report it rising from $60 to $100. Seeking's 2026 prices, by contrast, are official: $150 for 30 days of Platinum and $375 for 30 days of Diamond.
- Ghost activity. MillionaireMatch reviewers report inactive members shown as "recently active" and suspected bots. A DatingScout UK review notes few verified millionaires. Seeking reviewers report fake profiles, scammers and escort profiles.
- Account loss. MillionaireMatch reviewers report sudden rejection or deactivation after verification. Seeking reviewers report suspension after paying, with no refund.
- Exclusion history. In 2015 MillionaireMatch deleted more than 1,000 profiles it deemed "not attractive or too poor".
- Advance-fee scams on sugar sites. A common scam has a fake "sugar daddy" ask the victim for a gift card or a "verification" fee before any money is sent.

FAQ
Is MillionaireMatch a sugar dating site?
Not by design. It presents itself as dating with wealthy singles, and both men and women can pay. Seeking is the sugar dating site in this pair.
How much does MillionaireMatch cost in 2026?
Third-party sources disagree. DatingScout and DatingApps list $70 for one month, and millionairematchcom.com lists $100 a month. That site could not be confirmed as official. A separate Platinum plan announced in March 2025 costs $500 a month.
Why does MillionaireMatch have no Trustpilot score?
Trustpilot has disabled its rating for breaching its guidelines after removing fake reviews. The page still shows 98 reviews, 73% of them one-star. When the rating was disabled is unverified.
Does Seeking verify income?
One third party reports income verification at every tier, but this is unverified. Seeking's confirmed checks are AI selfie verification and an optional background check, reportedly $50.
