Place LibertineOur review.

What Place Libertine is

Place Libertine is a French libertine dating site that has been running for over 15 years and bills itself as "the go-to libertine site" in France. It's a classic personals-plus-community setup: you post an ad with photos and videos, browse thousands of couples, single women, single men and trans members near you, and chat, cam and plan nights out at partner swinger clubs and private parties. Every flavour of French libertinage is on the menu — échangisme (full swap), mélangisme (same-room play), côte-à-côtisme (side by side), candaulism, threesomes, group sex, BDSM, exhibitionism, voyeurism and tantra.

It's owned by the French company web fms (RCS Nanterre 517 406 872) and hosted by OVH in France.

How it works

Register free as a woman, man, couple or trans member — and pick the right type, because the moderators will switch a "single woman" profile used by a couple to "couple" without appeal. Write an ad that says exactly what you want, add photos (no magazine, landscape or object pics), then wait for validation. Free members get their ad published and can browse some pages, but sending a message — even a reply — needs VIP, so on Place Libertine the paywall hits early. Get certified as soon as you can: it's the trust signal French libertines look for, and it unlocks video posting.

The good stuff for couples is the local side: geolocated search, the venue directory, partner clubs and private parties. Pick a place with a good reputation, go once to look, and only play when everyone agrees — the site's own etiquette guide insists on consent, protection and hygiene.

Who it is for

Place Libertine suits French couples and singles who want a straightforward libertine site with known prices, local ads and club nights. If you want the biggest French network with parties and lives, compare with Wyylde; for a free-first social network, JOYclub or Libertic; for the French couples' app, Nouslib. Travelling? SDC and Kasidie cover the international party scene. All of them are compared in our best swinger sites guide and the Wyylde vs JOYclub vs Nouslib face-off.

Verdict

6.9/10. Place Libertine does the French libertine basics well: honest public prices, certified ads, a big menu of practices and a club directory. The catch is a paywall that blocks even replies, plus strict cancellation rules — take one month at €21.90, test your area, and cancel online straight after day one if you don't want it to renew.

FAQ

How much does Place Libertine cost?

Sign-up is free. The VIP subscription costs €21.90 for 1 month, €45.99 for 3 months and €113 for 1 year (prices including VAT, CGU checked 2 Nov 2026), and renews automatically at the same price.

Can you use Place Libertine for free?

You can create and publish your ad and browse some pages for free, but sending messages — including replies — video chat and the other paid features need VIP.

How do I cancel my Place Libertine subscription?

Only online, from "Mon profil / Gestion". Email requests aren't processed, and cancellation isn't possible in the 24 hours after subscribing. You keep access until the end of the paid period.

Is Place Libertine discreet?

According to the site, it asks for no physical address or ID, shares no profile data with partners and never sees your card details (handled by Paybox). Use a dedicated email and faceless photos until you trust someone.

What is the difference between échangisme and mélangisme?

On libertine sites, échangisme means swapping partners; mélangisme means two couples or more having sex in the same room, each with their own partner, without swapping. Place Libertine covers both, plus côte-à-côtisme, candaulism, threesomes and more.
