18+ · For trans people and the people who date them

Dating apps that treat trans people as people.

Which apps let you say who you are, which ones protect you from harassment and which "trans dating sites" are really pay-to-chat with staff. For trans women, trans men and nonbinary people, and for cis people who want to date respectfully.

What we compare, and how

  1. Policies that protect you

    Gender options, pronouns, and whether the rules name transphobia, misgendering and fetishising as bannable. We quote the policy, not the press release.

  2. Real people

    Verification tools, and whether a site's own terms admit to staff-written or "virtual" profiles.

  3. Privacy

    What the profile exposes, how the company treats gender identity and sexual orientation data, and its breach record.

  4. Cost

    US App Store prices for the apps; for paid sites, renewals, refunds and chargeback fees from their terms.

  5. Respect

    How the product talks about trans people. Marketing that treats trans women as a fetish category is a warning about the whole site.

Seven platforms, side by side

Taimi, OkCupid and Feeld are where trans people date on their own terms. TSseeker and Trans Date are paid adult sites aimed mostly at cis men; read their reviews before paying. Stripchat and Jerkmate are cam sites: paid entertainment with trans performers, not dating. Our guide to the best trans dating apps goes deeper on each app's policies, and is TSseeker legit? explains how to spot pay-to-chat sites.

Three numbers worth knowing

39% of trans adults in the 2022 US Transgender Survey were harassed online in the past year because of their gender identity or expression.

42% of trans and gender-expansive people killed in 2024 whose killer is known were killed by a partner, friend or family member.

0 is how many of TSseeker's chat "animators" are labelled as staff: its terms say they are "not explicitly identified".
