# Sugar Dating Glossary: 20 Essential Terms

May 27, 2026

New to sugar dating? This glossary covers the 20 most important terms — from Allowance and PPM to NSA and M&G — so you always know what people mean.

## Essential Sugar Dating Terms and Definitions

Sugar dating has its own vocabulary. If you're new to the world, here are the 20 terms you'll encounter most often — and what they actually mean.

**1\. Provider** — The financially established partner who offers support (formerly "Sugar Daddy" or "Sugar Momma").

**2\. Beneficiary (Sugar Baby)** — The partner who receives support and provides companionship.

**3\. Allowance** — A regular financial payment (weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly) agreed between both parties.

**4\. PPM (Pay Per Meet)** — An arrangement where the Provider pays a fixed amount for each individual meeting, rather than a recurring allowance.

**5\. M&G (Meet and Greet)** — The first in-person meeting between a potential Provider and Beneficiary, usually in a public place with no financial commitment expected.

**6\. NSA (No Strings Attached)** — An arrangement with no emotional expectations or long-term commitment.

**7\. SD** — Abbreviation for Sugar Daddy.

**8\. SB** — Abbreviation for Sugar Baby.

**9\. SM** — Abbreviation for Sugar Momma.

**10\. Arrangement** — The agreed terms between a Provider and Beneficiary, including financial details, frequency of meetings, and expectations.

**11\. The Talk** — The conversation where both parties openly discuss and agree on the terms of the arrangement.

**12\. Vanilla** — Used to describe non-sugar, traditional dating.

**13\. Salt Daddy** — Someone who poses as a Sugar Daddy but has no intention of providing financially.

**14\. Scammer** — Someone using the platform dishonestly, often attempting fraud.

**15\. Verified** — A member who has completed ID and biometric verification on SugarHut.

**16\. POT (Potential)** — A potential Provider or Beneficiary you're considering or in conversation with.

**17\. LGBTQ+ Sugar** — Sugar arrangements between same-sex or queer-identifying members.

**18\. Splenda Daddy** — A Provider with limited means who overpromises and underdelivers.

**19\. Profile Boost / Featured** — A premium feature that elevates your profile in search results.

**20\. Stealth Mode** — A privacy setting allowing you to browse without appearing in search results.
