Excluding the ones we turn down ourselves, I’d say it’s close to 90%.
> And what percentage of those relationships last more than a year and a half?
> (Another 20–30%?)
They can continue as long as both sides want them to, but new, wonderful women keep joining, and some graduate when they get married.
I’m not sure. Maybe if you meet three or more times, it’s 100% likely to continue for several years.
If you’d like me to dig deeper, I’ll look into the numbers and get back to you.

I’m a male member, BB7.
I’m not sure why it’s a year and a half rather than a year, though（笑）
Does that mean the person asking has been in an arrangement for about that long?
I’d say maybe one woman in ten, if that. The only relationships that last are with women who meet the criteria outlined in Sōzetsu’s answer and are also a great match in terms of personality and physical compatibility.
I think there’s really only about one such person in ten.

Everyone has given such great answers, so rather than addressing the question itself, I’d like to offer a slightly different perspective.
I understand that when you’re investing a substantial amount of money in a dating club relationship, it’s natural to expect a high-level arrangement in return.
But which women can actually fit into that kind of relationship?
For men, it means a significant financial investment; for women, it means a high-level relationship. Either way, it’s not easy（笑）
So it makes sense that many relationships never reach the point of continuing or becoming long-term.
Keeping the amount a little lower and making a few compromises may be one of the keys to maintaining a relationship for longer.

Even if a woman is missing one or more of the six conditions outlined by Mr./Ms. Sozetsu, I think a long-term arrangement is possible as long as you can put up with it.
I suspect many male members decide partway through that it’s “not worth it” or that they’re “not a good match,” then make an offer to someone else, which is why things don’t continue long-term.
Conversely, if you don’t expect too much from the woman and simply adapt to all of her terms, maintaining a long-term arrangement doesn’t seem that difficult.
I usually try adapting to the woman first, then decide whether to continue. But when I do that, it often turns out not to be the kind of relationship I ideally wanted. ^^
I find striking the right balance there quite difficult.

In my case, most of the offers are Type B, but:
1. Adult relationship (intimate): 8 out of 14
2. Meeting four or more times: 6 out of 14
3. Lasting more than a year: 2 out of 14
Other than that, just as Papa-katsu Gentleman says.
