Safety first. Always.
A shared home only works when both people are equal. Here's how we protect that.

Our Fair-Split agreement
Every member agrees: "I am 18+ and agree to the LiveInWithBenefits Fair-Split Policy (all living costs are shared fairly with no transactional strings attached)."
That means no rooms, rent or bills in exchange for sex or intimacy — ever. It's against our rules and a crime in Ireland. Read the full Fair-Split Policy.
In 2026 Ireland made it a criminal offence to offer or advertise accommodation in exchange for sexual activity. That's why you can never list a room or offer housing here. Every member is an equal seeker, and couples rent a new place together as co-tenants.
What we do
- 18+ only, checked by date of birth at signup.
- Automatic flagging of phrases like "free room", "rent free", "no rent", "room for" and "in exchange" in bios and messages.
- A Report button on every profile and chat, including a "Housing-for-intimacy offer" reason.
- Instant blocking — blocked people can't see you or message you.
Dating safely
- Meet in public for your first few dates and tell a friend where you'll be.
- Never send money or share bank details with a match.
- Only sign a lease where you are both named tenants paying an equal share.
- Report anyone who suggests housing in return for intimacy — and contact Gardaí at garda.ie.
