How shared membership works
The Adult Cafe uses HubPeople's dating platform for registration, member profiles, search, messaging and member support. The platform connects participating dating sites through a shared member network.
When you join through The Adult Cafe, you can discover members who joined through compatible partner sites, as well as members attributed to The Adult Cafe itself. Your profile may also be visible across compatible sites in the network. The service's privacy policy and membership terms explain how the service handles profiles and access.
What the network figure means
The 2M+ figure represents more than two million members across HubPeople's combined shared dating network, which The Adult Cafe members have access to when they join. It covers participating partner sites, rather than The Adult Cafe UK brand alone.
A network membership total does not tell you how many people are online now, active recently or available in your area. Individual interests and availability vary.
The Adult Cafe UK membership
As of , HubPeople reports 5,686 members attributed to theadultcafe.com UK brand. This is its current brand membership total, not registrations over a particular period. Members also have access to the wider shared HubPeople network.

This figure is specific to theadultcafe.com UK brand. It does not combine the similarly named South African or Australian brands. It is a membership count, not a count of people currently online.
Membership pricing
Basic registration is free. VIP membership is available for the following lengths. Each plan is paid in advance for the full period shown.
| Length | Total paid in advance | Monthly equivalent |
|---|---|---|
| 1 month | £29.96 | £29.96 |
| 3 months | £64.16 | £21.39 |
| 6 months | £102.60 | £17.10 |
| 12 months | £155.91 | £12.99 |
Monthly equivalents are rounded to the nearest penny for comparison. Multi-month plans are paid in full in advance, rather than in monthly instalments. Prices may vary according to promotions; check the price and membership details shown before paying.
Renewals: The 1-month, 3-month and 6-month VIP plans renew automatically at the same price for the same membership period unless cancelled. The 12-month VIP plan does not renew automatically.
