Older Friends With Benefits vs Feeld: Which Suits You?
An app for the curious of every age, or a site where grown-ups come for one kind of arrangement.
The short answer
Feeld describes itself as "a dating app for the curious" and welcomes everything "from platonic friendships to FWBs". Older Friends with Benefits does one job: it helps grown-ups in the UK find a regular friend with benefits, and its members are older: 78% are 45 or over. If age matters to you, that's the difference.
Both take friends with benefits seriously, so the choice comes down to the crowd you want, the way you like to browse and how much else you'd like to explore along the way.
Side by side
| Older Friends With Benefits | Feeld | |
|---|---|---|
| Made for | A regular friend with benefits, no strings | Open-minded dating, from platonic to FWB and beyond |
| The crowd | More than three in four members are 45 or over | Its own study found every age group sends the most likes to people aged 28 to 32 |
| Couples | Mainly singles meeting one to one | Singles and couples, with paired couple profiles |
| Where you use it | Any web browser, on a computer, tablet or phone | iPhone and Android apps |
| Checks | Optional ID check with a badge, live video check, uploads screened | Age check for UK users, optional photo verification, nude blur |
| Paying | A Classic account, then VIP or VIP Plus plans | Paid Majestic Membership and paid extras on top of the basic app |
What Feeld does well
Feeld was one of the first apps to treat friends with benefits, open relationships and non-monogamy as normal rather than awkward. It's built by a UK company that has been going since 2014, it lets couples join together with paired profiles, and its privacy tools are thoughtful: an incognito mode, screenshot prevention and a blur on nude images. Its paid Majestic Membership adds unlimited likes and shows you who likes you.
If you want to explore, with a partner or on your own, across lots of different kinds of connection, Feeld gives you room to do it.
An older crowd changes everything
Feeld is open to every adult, but its own research says people of all ages send most of their likes to members aged 28 to 32. If you're 55, you'll be in a much smaller corner of the app, and the attention tends to flow elsewhere.
Here, older is the norm. Nearly six in ten members are 55 or over, and the women are mostly aged 35 to 54. You won't need to explain why you're here at your age, because everyone else is the same.

One arrangement, clearly understood
Feeld's breadth is a strength if you're curious about everything. If you already know you want a friend with benefits, a single purpose makes life simpler. Every profile here starts from the same place, so a message saying "I'd love something regular and relaxed" reads as normal, not forward.
A browser, not an app
Feeld is built around its phone apps. Older Friends with Benefits works in any web browser, so you can read profiles on a laptop with your glasses on, then reply from your phone later. Nothing to download, and nothing on your home screen unless you choose to add it.
Badges you can see
Members who pass the ID check carry a verified badge, and a live video check with a moderator is there for anyone who'd rather not share documents. Our safety page lists the rest.
