QUARTZ - Sep 24 - Carrot Dating allows users to offer “bribes,” such as a tank of gas, in exchange for dates. The site was founded by Brandon Wade, the kingpin of economically-weighted dating sites, including Seeking Arrangement, What’s Your Price and Miss Travel. When Carrot Dating was launched in 2013, the media was grossed out. Apple refused to allow the apps on their products. “All dating sites are superficial in nature,” Wade said. "On Tinder, people are judging each other on their looks. If guys can leverage their biceps, why not their wallet?” On Seeking Arrangement, ~ 42% of the “sugar babies” on the site are students. 31% of sugar daddies are executives, 26% are entrepreneurs, 16% work in finance, and 33% are married.
