Why was Sugarbook banned in Malaysia?

Sugarbook was banned in Malaysia in 2021 after gaining popularity among university students during the pandemic. Conservative politicians pushed to block the site to prevent "immoral activities" among younger users. Founder Darren Chan was arrested for "inciting fear to the public" and has chosen not to fight the Malaysian government, considering leaving the Malaysian market completely.

Is Sugarbook available in the United States?

Sugarbook has limited availability in the United States compared to Southeast Asian markets where it's most popular. The platform operates from Cyprus and attracts some US users, but has a significantly smaller user base in America than alternatives like Seeking or Secret Benefits. The site is location-specific, requiring users to be in their current location to sign in.

How do you cancel a Sugarbook membership?

To cancel Sugarbook, first cancel your subscription through the payment merchant, then go to settings and choose "Deactivate Account." To permanently delete your account, you must email Sugarbook directly as deactivating is not the same as deleting. Users report that premium subscriptions paid by credit card can be difficult to cancel, with no full or partial refunds available.

What are the main problems with Sugarbook?

Sugarbook's main issues include a limited user base outside Southeast Asia, expensive pricing at $71.90/month, difficult cancellation process, no mobile app in official stores, and mixed user reviews averaging 3 stars on Trustpilot. Many users report low-quality matches, and the free version severely limits functionality with no messaging capabilities. {banner3:the-right-person-changes-everything-inline}{banner3:the-right-person-changes-everything-inline}
