AdultLuxe has launched a free, privacy-protected kink test designed to help individuals discover their kink archetypes and facilitate partner matching. The test, which is for adults 18 and over, allows users to explore their preferences through a card-based quiz format.

Test Mechanics and Archetypes

The AdultLuxe Kink Test operates by presenting users with individual kink cards, each featuring a plain-English explanation. Users respond to each card with "Yes," "Maybe," "No," or "Fantasy only." For kinks where a side preference is relevant, such as "spanking or being spanked," users indicate their desired role. An "Already into it" option is also available, which counts as a stronger "Yes."

Within 30 cards, users receive an initial result, identifying one of 13 kink archetypes. This result also details their power style, spice level, and themes. Continuing through the full deck of 186 cards refines the outcome. The test calculates results by fully counting "Yes" answers, giving "Already into it" a slightly higher weight, "Maybe" half a count, and "Fantasy only" a small count. Skips do not contribute to the score. Answers are grouped into 17 themes, with the strongest themes determining the archetype and subsequent strongest themes adding a "streak." Power style—"Mostly leads," "Mostly follows," "Switches it up," or "Equal footing"—is set by choices on two-sided cards. "Yes" answers on medium and advanced cards determine the spice level, ranging from "Mild" to "Scorching."

Privacy and Partner Features

A core feature of the AdultLuxe Kink Test is its privacy protection. Users can send a private link to a partner or pass their phone, allowing each person to answer independently. Upon tapping "reveal," partners only see the kinks they both desire and those they are both curious about. "No" answers are never shown to a partner. "Fantasy only" responses are hot to think about but not intended for action.

Other platforms also offer kink tests with privacy features. Comparekink provides a free, anonymous kink quiz that scores sexuality across "Dominant," "Submissive," and "Kinky overall" dimensions. Users can take it solo or invite a partner for a compatibility test that reveals only mutually affirmed kinks. Comparekink states that it is anonymous, uses no cookies, and hides one-sided answers, meaning only "Yes/Yes" and "Maybe/Yes" responses are visible to partners. Users can un-match a partner or wipe their data at any time. The platform emphasizes that data stays with the user, and the test is taken under a pseudonym, without asking for a real name or using off-site tracking.

Cuffplay also offers a free, private kink quiz for singles and couples, asking 36 questions and taking approximately 4 minutes, with no sign-up required. It confirms users are 18 or older and agree to its Terms and Privacy Policy. Cuffplay's test provides a result that includes a power role, a portrait, six separate 0–100 scales, and role tags. Examples of portraits include "The Compass," "The Flame," and "The Mirror." Users can take the test alone and keep their private result, or with a partner, use the free Cuffplay app's "In Common" view to see only shared interests. Since October 12, 2026, out of 2,758 people who finished Cuffplay's test, approximately half identified as "Submissive," about a third as "Switch," one in seven as "Dominant," and 2% as "Power-neutral." Among recent finishers, 51% were exploring with a partner, and 37% were exploring solo.
