Is there an affiliate program where you can refer male members and have them join?
I have a friend who retired early and spends his days enjoying wine and golf. He’s around sixty and a real bon vivant, personally importing cases of wine costing about ¥500,000 a bottle several times a year.
He seems like the type who might spend around ¥20 million a year on papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan) if he joined Universe Club and got hooked.
By the way, do the male members here ever tell close friends that they’re involved in papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan)?
I haven’t told anyone, but I’m wondering whether I should tell this pleasure-loving friend of mine. Having someone to talk with about the ins and outs of papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan) might open up another kind of enjoyment, but I’m unsure whether it’s appropriate to bring it up.
I’m Rin, a female member.
My partner and I are both business owners, and we know that we’re each registered here. He told me he’d be careful not to let our activities overlap.
Whether or not to be open about papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan) is a matter of personal values, I think.
Some people may find it off-putting, while others may be interested.
That said, seeing someone publicly talk about what they did with young women in exchange for money—“we did this and that”—makes me think, “He must not have been very popular when he was younger. Now that he’s successful, has money, and can do whatever he wants with women, he must be genuinely thrilled…” It even brings out a feeling that’s almost pity. But again, that’s just my personal view.

Unless you have a relationship where you’ve talked openly about all kinds of matters involving women, I think it’s better not to bring it up.
Someone who hears it unexpectedly probably wouldn’t know how to react and would feel extremely awkward.
For the past 30 years, I’ve had a friend with whom I’ve introduced women and helped each other cover our alibis. Since we’ve shared everything from successes to major failures involving women, it’s only natural that we also talk about women we meet through the club.
I don’t tell anyone else, no matter how close we are. The same goes for women outside the club—I don’t talk about them either.

> Isn’t there an affiliate program where you introduce male members and get them to sign up?
There is.
There’s a proper link at the bottom of the official website:
https://afi.universe-club.jp/
> I haven’t told anyone about it, though.
Most people don’t usually tell others, but apparently some members have made acquaintances through it.
P.S.
> In the case of affiliates, when that person makes an offer, a certain percentage of the fee is paid back to them.
As you can see from the link, for men, the commission is paid only when they join—there’s no commission when they go on dates.
For women, on the other hand, they don’t receive anything when they join, but once they go on a date, they get 30–40% back.
By the way, I’ve been complaining to the president:
“Isn’t 40% way too much? And with another 10% going to consumption tax, Universe only gets half. Even though there are advertising costs, rent, and everything else…”
So if you’re thinking of becoming an affiliate, now’s your chance.（笑）

I keep my membership in the dating club completely secret.
It’s not really something to talk about, and there’s no need to tell anyone, so I’ve never mentioned it. I don’t expect that to change.

I’m Basil, a male member.
I may have said this before, but I literally haven’t told anyone about this activity. The only people who know are the women I’ve met and the staff. Even then, I’m deliberately vague about my social status. As I commented a few days ago, there’s absolutely nothing to be gained from getting found out.
Actually, I’m aiming for early retirement too, but I’m not sure whether I’d continue with the club. Once I no longer need to reward myself—and considering the financial and physical demands—I might not.
I doubt I’ll ever tell my friends about it, and I’m certainly not interested in the affiliate program.
