Seeking Cougar Review

I've had a bit of a sweet tooth for a sugar momma lately, and nothing seems to satisfy it. It hadn't occurred to me that there's sugar mommas as well until I came across Seeking Cougar. While the homepage focuses on sugar mommas finding "handsome young men", I found I could say I was looking for a sugar momma in my search preferences!

What is Seeking Cougar & who is it for?

Seekingcougar.com is a dating site with 5 million+ members where younger men (and younger women!) can match with older women without judgment.

Best for: Younger (18+) men and women seeking older women, older women (30+) seeking younger partners, age gap dating, casual relationships or hookups.

Not for: Singles not comfortable with age gaps, couples looking for other couples, or those seeking long-term relationships.

The tl;dr on Seeking Cougar

• 5 million+ users
• Profile verification: Submit ID or handwritten sign photo.
• Profile visibility: Visible to everyone by default — change in privacy settings!
• The site felt outdated: Copyright still saying 2022!
• Inactive users: Some last seen almost a year ago.

Is there a Seeking Cougar app?

Kind of — mobile version available, but when downloading for iOS the name changes to "Cougar: Older Women Dating App." You can also access it via mobile browser.

What's the sign up process?

The registration form felt outdated. Choose who you are (sugar boy/sugar momma) and who you're looking for. Complete the registration with email, location, DOB, username, and password. Verify email within 12 hours. Upload pics and fill out profile details including height, weight, body build, hair, smoking/drinking habits, and occupation.

Search and match capabilities

Basic and advanced search available. Filters include looking for type, age, pic only, online now, location, height, weight, smoking/drinking, ethnicity, and body build. Location search was oddly limited in country selection.

Is Seeking Cougar free?

✅ Free account available! I could create a profile, browse hotties, search, read the blog, report/block users, and view favorites. Seeking Cougar doesn't seem to have a premium membership.

What sets Seeking Cougar apart?

• Priority listing: Pay to put your profile at the top of search results.
• Virtual gifts: Break the ice with a gift.
• Block users: Handy for annoying encounters.

Is Seeking Cougar legit?

The screening process is legit — not just anyone can register. They manually verify every profile pic and bio. However, there were red flags: poorly written privacy policy/TOS, outdated copyright, and after a week only one person reached out — with Lorem Ipsum dummy text. 🤔

Final thoughts for my Seeking Cougar review

I had fun checking out the cougars, but the site could use updating and modernization. It took quite some time for my profile to get attention. While it has a large user base, it doesn't appear to be as active as some other sites. Worth a shot if you're planning on spending time on SeekingCougar.com and not just looking for a quick match!
