Pros and cons

Pros

  • Screening runs on member checks, an ID check and a selfie photo, so profiles are checked before they go live.
  • A free model lets you open the app and pay only when you want ribbons, with One-time ribbon packs 30-300, plus subscriptions as the options.
  • 7M+ cumulative members (as of 2026-09-26) cumulative members, and a start date of 2014.
  • Screened members are pointed toward real offline dates, a different aim from the scene listings such as BDSM-baari.

Cons

  • Support runs on email only, so a billing question waits on a written reply.
  • Monthly price from KRW 4,400 sits above the casual dating median of €13.57, so the entry cost is the weak point.
  • Store ratings read Play 3.4 (30.1k reviews); iOS 3.7 (9.8k), 2026-09-26, a mixed signal for a service you pay for.
  • The privacy policy sends data to Japan and the US, so a member in KR has records outside the home country.

Scored 8.9 / 10 by AdultCue.

Who it suits

  • Adults in KR who want screened profiles and a stated aim of real offline dates.
  • Readers who prefer paying in steps, since One-time ribbon packs 30-300, plus subscriptions lets you buy ribbon packs before committing to a subscription.
  • Anyone weighing store billing, since refunds and cancellation follow Refund within 7 days; cancel in app or store.

Who should look elsewhere

  • Readers shopping purely on entry cost: Findom.com lists $0.09 against KRW 4,400 here.
  • People who need more than email when a charge is in question.
  • Readers after a specific scene, where BDSM-baari at €0.83 to €2.50 is the relevant listing.

Privacy, billing and cancelling

Privacy rests on a published policy, and that policy says data is sent to Japan and the US, so the trail runs well beyond the home market. On money, Refund within 7 days; cancel in app or store is the whole commitment: a refund window, and cancelling either in the app or through the store you bought from. The store is named in the cancellation route, so a refund request goes to the store rather than to a support desk, which is worth knowing before a pack is bought.

How it works

The stated aim is real offline dates, and membership is screened to that end rather than left open, so the pitch is meeting people in person instead of browsing profiles all evening. Scale supports the claim: 7M+ cumulative members (as of 2026-09-26) have come through the service, a long runway for a casual audience. The trade-off is that screening sits in front of the catalogue, so the flow trades browsing speed for a smaller, checked pool.

Members and plans

The crowd is described as screened members seeking real offline dates, which places Amanda in casual dating rather than a niche scene, and 7M+ cumulative members (as of 2026-09-26) have registered cumulatively. Spending runs on a virtual currency called ribbon, used for use and purchases in the service. One-time ribbon packs 30-300, plus subscriptions covers the shapes: ribbon packs sold singly alongside subscriptions. In practice you can buy a pack to test the service or subscribe if screening works for you, and the ribbon balance is what you spend from either way.

Frequently asked questions

What does Amanda cost?+

The monthly price starts at KRW 4,400, and most spending goes through ribbon instead, with One-time ribbon packs 30-300, plus subscriptions as the shapes on offer. Treat the monthly figure as the anchor and the packs as the real spend, since the download itself is free but use and purchases are not.

What is free on Amanda?+

The download is free and the account model is free, with paid ribbon credit packs as the only paid step listed. Spending beyond that runs on ribbons rather than a gate on sign-up, so the free part covers opening the app and looking around before you commit to a pack.

What are ribbons?+

Ribbons are the in-app currency, used for use and purchases inside the service. One-time ribbon packs 30-300, plus subscriptions shows the choice, packs sold singly or a subscription, so you can hold a balance or commit to a term. If you prefer avoiding subscription maths, the single packs are the simpler route.

How do I cancel and get a refund?+

Refund within 7 days; cancel in app or store. That means the refund is time limited, and cancellation is handled either in the app or by the store you bought from, so keep your order details to hand. Support for that route runs on email, so a written thread is the place to track it.

Where is my data sent?+

The privacy policy is published, and it says data is sent to Japan and the US, so records leave the home market of KR. That detail matters before you upload a selfie photo or complete an ID check, and it is worth reading the policy wording of any alternative you weigh.

Is there an app, and which platforms?+

app and verified profiles lists an app and verified profiles, so mobile is the main route rather than a browser site. Download the listing, sign up, and screening applies from the start. Store listings carry the Play 3.4 (30.1k reviews); iOS 3.7 (9.8k), 2026-09-26 rating, which is the quickest place to see how users scored it.

How are members checked?+

Screening is the front door: members are screened, an ID is checked and a selfie photo is requested. That is the main answer to fake profiles here, and it is why the audience is described as members seeking real offline dates. Verified profiles are listed as a feature, so the check is part of the product.

Who is Amanda aimed at?+

The audience is described as screened members seeking real offline dates, and the niche is casual, so the service is for general adult dating rather than a specific scene. 7M+ cumulative members (as of 2026-09-26) have come through, which means there is a real pool to browse and a screening step that narrows it.

How do I reach support?+

Support runs on email only, so questions about ribbons, refunds or your screening status go in writing. A written trail helps if you need to point at the Refund within 7 days; cancel in app or store refund window. Replies are not instant, so allow time when a charge is the issue.
