In the past, many establishments in the Fuzoku prohibited exchanging contact information between customers and the workers. Recently, however, an increasing number of shops are encouraging ladies who work in the industry to actively exchange contact information.
The reason for this shift is that relying solely on the establishment’s customer base may not be sufficient for the ladies to earn a satisfactory income. The establishments do not contact the customers for repeat visits or ongoing business. Therefore, ladies exchange contact information to stay in touch and encourage customers to come back. There are also systems in place where ladies can earn higher wages by having customers return for multiple visits.
The most common method of exchanging contact information is through the messaging app LINE, which is used almost universally. It is recommended to have LINE installed in advance.
If you meet a ladie you really like, it’s a good idea to exchange contact information so that you can easily find out her working days and available time slots. This way, you can stay updated and coordinate your meetings more conveniently. Additionally, as the number of your meetings increases, the ladies motivation may increase, and her service quality might improve as well.
However, there are ladies who prefer not to exchange contact information via LINE. LINE typically allows only one account per person, and most people use it for private purposes under their real names. They worry that if someone accidentally discovers their involvement in the adult entertainment industry, it could be problematic. In such cases, using Twitter’s direct messages (DMs) or other social media platforms could be a viable alternative.
It’s worth noting that most cases of infidelity are revealed through LINE…
Let me emphasize the most important point before we finish. Occasionally, there are ladies or customers who try to meet directly without involving the establishment. This is extremely dangerous.
If a ladie meets someone without the knowledge of the establishment, serious penalties will be imposed. The ladie could lose her job, and the customer may also face some form of penalty.
Even if you manage to keep it a secret, meeting directly with a ladie does not mean that the price will be lower for the customer. On the contrary, expenses such as dining and gifts are likely to increase, requiring more money.
