Introduction
Snap Date is a fairly new dating platform primarily focused on helping online daters find casual relationships, sex chatting, and hookups. The site operates internationally, but it has been largely popularised in France and other French-speaking countries. As is common for hookup sites such as Snap-Date, the majority of its user base consists of male members between the ages of 25 and 34, making female users the minority.
Nonetheless, it’s a great platform to find local sex dates, especially in France. So, if you’re considering signing up to Snap-Date.com, check out our review. You’ll learn more about the site’s costs, features, and security measures, as well as its pros and cons.

Snap Date Login Process
Good news is you can get straight into finding your Snap-Date partner by registering with a Google account, making the process quick and easy for a large number of people. Nonetheless, if you do not have or want to use your Google account to sign up, you can opt to complete the registration form.
You will first be asked to insert your gender and gender you are interested in, followed by creating your username, and providing your email address. Next, you will need to enter a password, your exact date of birth, as well as your country and city of residence. Finally, make sure to tick the “I accept the Terms & Privacy policy.” box to make the “register” button clickable and proceed.
Straight away you are able to start your search for one night stands, but before you do that, we recommend putting some effort into your profile. This will help the algorithm suggest you with better, more compatible matches based on your preferences. Not to mention you can get some free starting coins to give the site a try before committing to one of its packages.
First things first, the site will urge you to upload a profile picture, create an “About me” text, and insert additional gallery photos. You’ll then have to select some information about yourself from several drop-down menus. These include:
Height, weight & body type
Eye & hair colour
Body art (including tattoos, branding, and piercings)
Relationship status & living conditions
Ethnicity & level of education
Drinking & smoking habits
Whether you have or want kids
Finally, you will be presented with a list of 80 “interests” sexual in nature, covering an array of known and obscure kinks and fetishes. These interests can be used to filter out users in the members’ area, but you can also be found through other people’s searches. So, don’t be shy and let the rest of the users know what you’re into, you’ll likely find someone who shares your sexual fantasies and kinks.
Dating Features
Roulette
Similar to the ever popular Swiping feature of Tinder, SnapDate has its own matching feature through the “Roulette”. You are able to view other users’ profile pictures, usernames, age, location, and their interests. If you’re not sure whether you want to “heart” or “x” the other user, you are also able to visit their profile and get a better feel of what they are all about.
When two users “heart” each other through the feature, it becomes a match and you can find all users who matched with you through the dedicated “Matches” section of the tab. You are also able to view the profiles of users who “heart-ed” you through the Roulette under the “Likes me” tab.
Views
Another great feature if you’d rather do the searching by yourself is Snap-Date’s “Views”. Through the dedicated tab you can check out a list of users who visited your profile and are potentially interested in you. What’s more, if you’re looking for someone you’ve visited in the past, “Views” saves all the profiles you’ve seen under the “My views” section. The “Views” tab is a great place to discover compatible users who might be down to try some of your sexual fantasies with you.
Favourites
The “Favourites” tab is split in a similar way to the “Views” tab, only to enter the list you need to either favourite a profile yourself or have others favourite yours. Unlike the “Views” tab, however, the “Favourites” tab definitely shows you people who are interested in getting together with you. To favourite the profile of another user you need to click the “star” icon on their page, and this will add you automatically to their “Favourited me” section of the tab.
Prices & Costs
As mentioned above, Snap Date operates under a coins-basis where each message sent out costs 40 coins. The coins cannot be exchanged for anything other than messaging, but considering how integral chatting is on the platform, you can’t avoid it. Below you can view the currently active coin packages:
200 Coins - €9.99 (5 messages €1.99 each)
300 Coins - €19.99 (7.5 messages €2.67 each)
500 Coins - €29.99 (12.5 messages €2.40 each)
750 Coins - €39.99 (18.75 messages €2.13 each)
900 Coins - €49.99 (22.5 messages €2.22 each)
2,000 Coins - €99.99 (50 messages €1.99)
6,000 Coins - €199.99 (150 messages €1.33 each)
As you might expect, the most expensive package offers the best value for money, with the 2,000 and 200 packages coming second in that regard. What’s more, new users are presented with an “Unlimited Messages” offer supposed to last only for 24 hours. This offer costs €14.99 landing at a nice middle ground between the two cheapest packages, and giving the opportunity to new users to try out the site without breaking the bank.
How Safe Is Snap-Date?
SnapDate has quite the extensive terms and conditions as well as privacy policy pages which is always a positive in our eyes. The more detail they go into about how they use user data and third party involvement helps clarify whether these policies are actually protecting your personal information or not.
The policy we weren’t the biggest fans of was the transfer of user information to third parties via their site. This is, of course, only done with your consent and they clarify this is only done for your convenience. However, they are transparent about the fact that they will not take any responsibility about any grievances you might have using a site visited through their ads.
On a happier note, the site is relatively secure and the site and its operators won’t view, share or edit your personal information unless they are required by law to do so. What’s more, some of your chat history may be used as proof when reporting a user who might be malicious or scammy.
Conclusion
All in all, Snap-Date.com is a great dating site for those looking to have a hookup with locals in France. The site operates on a coins basis which can be quite expensive, so spend your money wisely, and make sure to take advantage of their unlimited messages offer if you are new.
SnapDate has many basic features, albeit very helpful and its algorithm is subtle yet accurate when it comes to matchmaking. It has extensive and clear terms and policies which were mostly created to keep its users safe, although we still recommend having a read through them before signing up.
While Snap Date might seem to be quite the basic dating site, it stands out thanks to that simplicity. We’ve found the site easy to use and the rest of the users we chatted with were friendly and open-minded as far as sexual topics went. In the end, we’d recommend giving Snap-Date a try, who knows? You might just meet your match!
