What is PPM in Sugar Dating?

Definition

PPM stands for "Pay Per Meet" - a sugar dating arrangement where the sugar daddy provides a predetermined amount of money for each date or meeting with a sugar baby. Unlike monthly allowances, PPM is transaction-based and occurs after each successful encounter.

How PPM Works

1. Agreement: Both parties discuss and agree on a PPM amount
2. Meeting: Sugar daddy and sugar baby go on a date
3. Payment: Sugar daddy provides the agreed PPM amount
4. Repeat: Process continues for subsequent meetings

When PPM is Used

• New sugar relationships (building trust)
• Casual or infrequent arrangements
• Traveling sugar daddies with irregular schedules
• Trial periods before committing to monthly allowances
