How Meet Naughty BBWs works

Four steps, and the first three are free

Meet Naughty BBWs works in four steps: join, build a profile, browse, then pay only if you want to read and reply to messages. Nothing is charged until you choose a membership.

1. Join. Sign up in the members area with your email address, a password and your date of birth. You need to be 18 or over.
2. Build your profile. Add photos and a few lines about you. You can set who you're looking for, an age range and how far you're happy to travel, and add details such as languages, whether you have kids, and whether you smoke or drink, if you want to.
3. Browse. Look around and see who catches your eye. This costs nothing.
4. Talk. To read and reply to messages, you need a paid membership. That's the point at which you pay, and only if you want to.

What's free and what's paid

Browsing is free; conversation is paid. A membership unlocks reading and replying to messages, plus a few extras that show who's interested in you.

Free members see adverts. There are also optional extras, such as profile boosts and the ID badge. The prices page shows what each plan costs and explains renewal.

Who it suits, and who it doesn't

Meet Naughty BBWs suits adults who want casual, flirty dating where plus-size and curvy women set the tone and admirers treat them as equals. It's a poor fit if you want a fetish site or a guarantee about who you'll meet.

Photos and what's checked

Every photo is reviewed before it appears, and nudity and lingerie shots aren't allowed. That's the extent of the checking: what members write about themselves, such as age, job or location, isn't checked by the platform. The optional ID badge shows that a member has completed an ID check with a photo ID and a selfie, run by LEM Verify. Our safety guide explains what that means in practice.

For photo ideas you'll be glad you used, see the body-confidence guide.

Who can see your profile

Your profile is visible beyond this site. Meet Naughty BBWs shares one member database with partner sites in the same network; members of those sites can see your profile and message you, and you can chat with them. Your profile shows which site you joined through.

That's worth knowing when you write it. Use a first name or nickname, and leave out details someone could use to find you offline.

Paying, cancelling and leaving

Payments go through the network's checkout, renew automatically, and can be stopped at any time from Settings > Billing.

• Billing name: the name that will appear on your statement is shown at checkout before you pay.
• Renewal: memberships renew automatically until you cancel.
• Cancel: go to Settings > Billing in the members area. Refunds and what happens to the rest of a paid period are covered by the members terms.
• Delete your account: tap your avatar, then Settings > Delete Account.

If anything goes wrong with your account or a payment, the contact page explains how to reach the members help centre.

How members are expected to behave

This is a site where plus-size and curvy women set the tone. Admirers are welcome when they treat people as equals. Openers about someone's body, weight questions and pressure for photos aren't welcome; our guide to fetishising messages explains why, and what BBW means covers the words to use and avoid. Before meeting anyone, run through the safety checklist.
