“The most generous cities are home to the most sincere daters,” says Brandon Wade, Founder and CEO of WhatsYourPrice.com “The more a man invests in a first date, the more likely he will not take the opportunity for granted.”

When Wade first launched the website in 2011, his goal was to create a more active and open-minded dating community than can be found on a traditional dating site. According to Wade, by incentivizing the opportunities to date, members are encouraged to date more often, and to take more chances.

“When you put your money where your heart is, there is absolutely nothing to lose and everything to gain,” says Wade. “Men in these major cities realize that if there is chemistry, then the generosity paid off. If not, then at least she did not leave empty-handed.”
