Start a Free Online Chat With Real People
Free online chat on WAB2 includes creating an account, browsing member profiles, searching for people and sending direct text messages. You do not need to buy Premium or purchase a match to begin a conversation.
WAB2 is for adults and requires registration. Once you have an account, choose someone to message; there is no automatic random pairing. The other person's settings determine whether they can receive your message, and they decide whether to reply.
Core text messaging is free. Premium adds optional features, including larger file uploads and extra profile controls; it is not required for basic search and text messaging.
Free to start
Registration, a basic profile, member search, direct text messaging, Ignore, and Report are available without buying Premium. Optional paid features are separate.
Member profile examples
Recently active profiles listing English and Russia: 30
Recorded visits within the last 72 hours.
Profile examples: AddMeToo / Toni / Maksim / Soska / Sam
Location, languages and ages are member-provided, not verified. A recorded visit is not a promise of availability or a reply.
What You Can Do for Free
These features are available without buying Premium:
- Create an account and a basic profile.
- Search for members and read their profiles.
- Send and receive direct text messages when both accounts' settings allow contact.
- Keep people in Contacts and add unwanted contacts to Ignore.
- Report rule-breaking behavior from a member's profile.
You can try the community before deciding whether you want any extras. For help choosing someone unfamiliar and writing a first message, see talk to strangers online.
How to Begin Your First Conversation
Create an account, add a short introduction and open the member search. Read a profile before writing. One shared interest is enough for a first message: “You mentioned old films—what is one you would watch again?”
If a message cannot be sent, check the reason shown on screen. Ignore, contacts-only preferences and other protection settings can prevent contact. Anti-spam limits also restrict starting many new conversations in a short time. These limits do not mean you must buy a match or pay for each text message.
Create a Free Account and Say Hello
You can use a nickname and limit identifying details. Read the anonymous-chat guide before filling in your profile if that matters to you.
What Premium Adds
Premium offers extras beyond ordinary text conversation:
- Larger file uploads.
- More profile photos.
- Options to hide profile visits, search visibility or activity updates.
- A Premium profile mark and additional presentation options.
See the Premium screen after signing in for the current price in credits, duration and renewal options. WAB2 also offers separate credit-based purchases. You can keep using core search and text messaging without buying those extras.
A Text Conversation at Your Own Pace
There is no camera or microphone requirement for text chat. You can read, think and reply when convenient. The person you contact may be busy, offline or uninterested; a free account does not guarantee an answer.
WAB2 is a community for conversations between members, rather than an AI-companion service. Treat an unfamiliar profile carefully, and use Ignore or Report when someone pressures, harasses or deceives you. Do not send money, passwords, identity documents or financial information to an online contact. Read the chat safety guide for more precautions.
Decide From the Experience
Start with the free features: search for someone whose profile interests you and send one thoughtful message. You can decide later whether an optional feature is useful to you.
