While I'm out here trying all sorts of dating sites, my friends and I had an enlightening convo at brunch about monogamy. I'm alllll about monogamy when I find 'my one', but I'm also curious! And since I'm not taken at the moment, I figured exploring some swinger sites could be exciting.
SwingLifeStyle is primarily for people into the swinging lifestyle. It sort of makes it easier for swingers to find other swingers, effectively creating a much-needed community of the sexually adventurous.
What is SwingLifestyle & who is it for?
SwingLifestyle (aka SLS) is an international niche dating site for swingers looking to interact with like-minded singles and couples. It does seem to be primarily male from the stats I was seeing (over 75% of their users!)
The site claims to be the oldest swinger site and has been around since 2001. It allows members to upload photos, videos and even join swinger groups (and there appears to be over 16,000 groups!)
They do expand into IRL events like swingers cruises and swingers parties, and they have a lot of community based features like clubs, articles, forums, groups, stories, etc.
Is the SwingLifestyle app legit?
✅ Yes! The SwingLifestyle app is legit! It's been around the block and it shows, especially since there are still pretty active members here after all these years.
📝 The TL;DR on SwingLifestyle app
- It's a community for swingers looking to meet outside the app.
- Has an Android and iOS app for ease of use on the go!
- There's a free account and features to use if you want to try it out first.
- Premium members can form and join groups.
- Members can verify profiles.
- Site overall feels a little bit outdated, but gets the job done.
- Members can "certify" other members or couples they've met IRL and vouch for them!
How does SwingLifestyle.com work?
SwingLifestyle.com is more of a community than a dating app! First, I had to go through the sign up process as either an individual or couple. Once registered and approved, I was able to adjust my profile, adding more pictures, private pictures, etc. Then I could interact with other members — send "mail", video IM, group video chat, peruse forums and groups, or read stories.
What's the SwingLifestyle sign up process like?
🐇 Super fast – less than 5 minutes! I chose a username and profile type, added my name, email, and location. Then I picked my "pleasures" and personal details. After filling out optional bio sections, my free account went under review and was confirmed about 30 minutes later!

Final thoughts on my SwingLifestyle review
After using Swing Lifestyle for a couple of weeks, I'd say it's pretty decent in terms of being able to connect with members, and having a "community" feel to it! Although 70%+ of the users are male, there's a good number of couples and single women committed to the lifestyle! Price point was reasonable, and if you like what you see, paying for the unlimited membership isn't a far jump. Overall, I'm pretty happy with what the site has to offer.
