Sugar Daddy Meet

What it is

Sugar Daddy Meet is an adult platform aimed at paid dating arrangements between adults. The name is the briefing. It does not belong on a device your child uses, and a child should never be in those conversations.

Finding the app, or finding unexplained money next to secretive online contact, is a safeguarding concern. You do not need to understand the app in detail to act. Remove it, do not contact the other party, and if an adult has been offering money or asking for photos, report it through the routes on the help page.

What to look out for

• The app hidden in a folder, or a login in a browser.
• Unexplained money, gifts, or gift cards.
• An older person they do not want you to meet.
• Requests for photos, secrecy, or a meeting.

Ways to stay safe

These steps are for Sugar Daddy Meet. The house rules still apply on every app.

• Remove the app. If a young child uses the device, keep the app-store password yourself so it cannot be quietly reinstalled.
• Do not message anyone on the account, and do not pretend to be your child.
• If an adult has asked for photos, offered money, or tried to meet, contact the police and a child-protection report line. The help page lists them.
• Write down usernames you can see. Do not delete the conversation if police may need to see it, and do not copy or forward sexual images.

In the news

Published reports you can read yourself. A headline is the proof, not a set of instructions, and this page does not repeat graphic detail.

• Dating apps told to stop under-18s after child abuse cases linked to Grindr The i Paper · 2025 This i Paper report names Grindr and Tinder. This app is the same kind of adult dating product. It stays off a child’s device.
• Overhaul algorithms and age checks or face fines, tech firms told BBC News · 2025 Ofcom’s children’s code says sites with pornography or harmful content must use stronger age checks. The i Paper report is the one that names dating apps.

A way to start the conversation

You can say: "Adults offering children money for a relationship are committing harm. You can tell me what happened. We will deal with it properly, and you are not the one who should feel ashamed."
