Our verdict on each
ALT.com
ALT.com suits adults who want a fetish and BDSM dating community and will accept limited free access, since registration comes at no cost while paid plans start at $8.33 a month. It is a narrow choice rather than a general dating service.
Luxy
Luxy suits singles who want a selective crowd of elite and high-net-worth people and who accept paying $49 a month for Black Membership. The same tier pricing puts it above most casual dating listings, so value matters more than headline cost here.
