[Conclusion] What is the reputation of PJ (PJ)? The reality revealed in a survey of 1,470 people.

To summarize PJ's reputation in one sentence:"The convenience of being able to start easily and meet someone the same day is popular, but the challenge lies in judging the quality of the men." That's what our users are really saying.
First, let me give you an overview of the project's reputation as revealed by the survey.
PJ Basic Information | A Quick Explanation of Operating Company, Safety, and Pricing
PJ in 2019Eclipse CorporationThis is a matching app launched by [name/company name].
Although it's not officially an app specifically for sugar dating, in reality, the majority of users are men and women who use it for that purpose.

PJ is officially registered as an internet dating service, and identity and age verification are mandatory.
There is no risk of encountering minors under 18, and the service operates in accordance with the law.
The fact that the fees for men are set slightly higher compared to other sugar daddy apps has the added benefit of resulting in fewer men who are just there to mess around.
22.4% of women use PJ (sugar daddy) apps | Position in the sugar daddy app market
In an independent survey conducted by UNIVERSE GROUP targeting 1,193 women,Of those who have used sugar daddy apps, 22.4% (112 people) have used PJ (Paid Job) before.The result was given.

What we can see from these figures is that PJ isWhile it doesn't have the same market share as SugarDaddy or Payters, it's a mid-sized app with a decent user base, second only to Paddy.That is the point.
Airi
I also used PJ for a while, and I do recall having many friends who said, "I know the name, but I've never actually used it."
You could also argue that because their name recognition is still developing, they have fewer rivals.
[Survey of 1,470 people] Thorough analysis of PJ's reputation and reviews

From here, we will analyze our own survey and reviews on social media to examine PJ's reputation from both a positive and negative perspective.
Female User Reviews | Top 3 Reasons for Choosing PJ
Based on the responses from the women's survey,How I learned about PJThe top rankings were as follows:
| Trigger | Proportion |
|---|---|
| Check out recommended sugar daddy dating sites. | 28.2 % |
| Google search | 28.1 % |
| I looked at X (Twitter) | 14.8 % |
| Watch TikTok | 6.9 % |
| via a friend | 4.6 % |
It should be noted thatRecommended sites and Google search combined account for 56.3% That's the point.
This indicates that PJ is frequently featured in comparison articles and ranking articles.
Furthermore, in response to a question asking what women expect most from PATOLO, the most common answer was "meeting a sugar daddy who provides generous allowances" at 42.4%, followed by "meeting a trustworthy sugar daddy who has passed the screening process" at 26.6%, and "being able to engage in sugar dating without the risk of being identified" at 19.0%.
This result shows that many womenThey are looking for both "high compensation" and "safety."It shows that.
While PJ is praised for its "ease of use," it can be seen that a certain number of women feel there are issues with "guaranteeing the quality of the men involved."
Customer reviews from male users | Positive and negative feedback
In a survey of 277 men, when asked what they consider most important when choosing a sugar daddy service, the results were as follows:
| Key points | Proportion |
|---|---|
| The quality of the women (looks) | 28.0 % |
| The quality (inner qualities) of women | 22.4 % |
| Large number of female members | 21.5 % |
| My identity will not be revealed | 8.9 % |
| The level of assertiveness of registered women towards adults | 6.3 % |
| サービス価格 | 5.0 % |
What men value most is"The quality of women" When you combine looks and personality, it reaches 50.4%, which is more than half.
Based on PATOLO's 5-point rating system (290 male respondents), the following evaluation trends emerge:
| Evaluation item | Average score (on a 5-point scale) |
|---|---|
| Ease of matching | 3.99 |
| How to keep your identity a secret | 3.94 |
| ease of use | 3.88 |
| The quality of the women (looks) | 3.64 |
| Low discrepancy in amounts | 3.64 |
| Support | 3.41 |
| The quality (inner qualities) of women | 3.31 |
"Ease of matching" and "Lack of identity disclosure" received high praise.Therefore, the basic functions required for a sugar daddy dating app are well-regarded.
On the other hand, the "quality of the women (inner qualities)" and "support services" received somewhat low ratings, indicating room for improvement.
In the open-ended responses, many users mentioned things like, "It's easy to communicate directly via message, which makes things go smoothly," "It's good to be able to discuss the terms in advance," and "It's safe to engage in sugar dating."
Some of the complaints included "messages are sometimes ignored because the user doesn't log in" and "some women look very different in person than in their photos."
A compilation of real reviews from social media.
When we examine reviews of PJ posted on X (Twitter) and review sites, the following trends emerge:
- "It's free for women, so it's easy to get started."

Airi
From my own experience, PJ is a very user-friendly app for people who want to meet up quickly in urban areas.
However, since there is no proof of annual income, it is certainly difficult to accurately judge a man's financial status based solely on his profile information.
5 Benefits of PJ

Based on survey results and social media reviews, PJ offers the following five advantages:
Women can start easily and for free.
PJWomen get in completely freeIt can be used with.
Since registration can be completed in just a few minutes, it's an attractive option for beginners who want to "just try out a sugar daddy app."
Since the monthly fee for men is set relatively high at 14,800 yen and up, it tends to attract more serious men compared to free dating apps.
The "Meeting Day" feature allows for same-day matching.
One of the most distinctive features of the project is"Days We Can Meet" feature.
By simply setting your available dates, times, and areas, you can efficiently find someone who can meet at the same time.
You can sometimes arrange a date on the same day, so be sure to use it when you suddenly find yourself with free time tonight.
The monthly fee for men is on the higher side, and there are many dads who are serious about finding a partner.
The monthly fee for the male version of the app starts at 14,800 yen, which is on the higher side compared to other sugar daddy apps.
This pricing structure results inA filter to eliminate users who are just browsing or looking to have fun.It could be said that it is fulfilling that role.
In fact, many comments on social media mention that "many men understand the purpose of sugar dating" and "they get straight to the point."
You can get a sense of their personality beforehand from their video profile.
In the projectYou can set a video for your profile.Therefore, you can check the atmosphere and expressions that cannot be conveyed through photos alone beforehand.
While reducing the risk of photo fraud is a benefit for men, it also benefits women, as they can more easily showcase their attractiveness by posting videos, so they should actively utilize this feature.
Negotiating terms for sugar dating goes smoothly.

Airi
The ability to set options such as "meals only" or "regular meetings desired" makes it easier to prevent mismatches before meeting, which is a great advantage.
When I was using PJ, the process of negotiating terms and conditions went smoothly through messaging, so I experienced less stress from meeting someone only to find out the conditions didn't match at all.
Four disadvantages and points to note about PJ

I will honestly tell you not only the advantages but also the disadvantages of the project.
Here are four points you should know before registering.
It's difficult to identify high-income dads because there's no proof of annual income.
PJThere is no function to verify a man's annual income..
The app cannot verify whether the annual income or occupation listed in a profile is accurate.
Airi
I think this is PJ's biggest weakness.
Without proof of income, it's impossible to determine if a man who claims to earn 2,000 million yen a year actually has that income, and there's a risk of being disappointed after meeting him in person.
Effective countermeasures include prioritizing accounts with VIP badges (indicating men who have paid an additional fee) and subtly checking their occupation and lifestyle during message exchanges.
In rural areas, the number of members is small, making it difficult to find a match.
PJ is a relatively new app,Outside of major cities like Tokyo, Osaka, and Nagoya, the number of members is still insufficient.Is the current situation.
When working in rural areas, it's recommended to use multiple apps in conjunction with the project rather than relying on a single app.
Regarding how to choose a safe sugar daddy app,Safe sugar daddy appThis manual provides a detailed explanation of how to distinguish between them and how to avoid problems.
The going rate for an initial meeting is relatively low (0-5,000 yen).
The allowance for the initial meeting at the project is,The going rate is 0 to 5,000 yen..
It's quite rare to receive more than 1 yen, and the pay is somewhat lower compared to other sugar daddy services.
| Date content | PJ market price | General market price |
|---|---|---|
| Meet in Person | 0-5,000 yen | 5,000-10,000 yen |
| Dinner date | 5,000-10,000 yen | 10,000-30,000 yen |
| Regular (monthly contract, meals only) | 30,000-50,000 yen | 50,000-100,000 yen |
If you want to know more about the going rates for sugar dating,List of typical rates for "sugar daddy" relationshipsPlease check.
In a survey of male members of PATOLO, the median allowance per date was 50,000 yen.
In services with a strict screening process, the going rate tends to be higher because the man's financial stability is guaranteed.
Please note that this is not an app specifically for sugar dating.
PJ officiallyThis is not an app specifically for sugar dating..
Some men register with the intention of finding a romantic partner or spouse.
Therefore, there is a possibility of matching with men who do not understand the purpose of "sugar dating."
It's important to confirm the other person's intentions early on, through their profile and message exchanges.
List of PJ (Project Job) Allowance Rates [Latest 2026]

This article summarizes the typical allowances you can expect from sugar dating on PJ, categorized by the type of date you'll be having.
Rates for different types of dates
| Date content | Market price (PJ) | Remarks |
|---|---|---|
| Meet in Person | 0-5,000 yen | It's usually just enough to cover transportation costs. In many cases, it's 0 yen. |
| Dinner date (1 time) | 5,000-10,000 yen | Price varies depending on whether it's lunch or dinner. |
| Date (half day) | 10,000-20,000 yen | If it includes shopping or going out |
| Regular (monthly contract, meals only) | 30,000-50,000 yen | Assuming 2-4 meals per month |
The above is merely a guideline for the project.
It also varies depending on the man's financial status, the woman's attributes, and the area.
Reasons why PJ's market price is lower than other apps and how to address this.
The main reasons why PJ's rates are slightly lower compared to other services are the following two points:
First,Because there is no proof of annual income, it is difficult to narrow down the search to high-income men.Can be mentioned.
Services that require proof of annual income can target only men with a certain level of financial stability, which naturally drives up the prices.
The other isBecause it's not exclusively for sugar dating, there are some men who don't even understand the concept of compensation.It is that.
If you want to raise the market price, don't rely solely on PJs.Use a service with a strict screening process in conjunction with this.Is recommended.
At PATOLO, 6% of male members have an annual income of 2,000 million yen or more, and an interview with staff is required before joining.
Since you can check the allowance amount and relationship type in advance, mismatches in conditions are less likely to occur at the initial meeting stage.
