The first time I opened an Erobella profile I understood about 40% of what I was reading. GFE, PSE, DFK, incall/outcall, rates, extras—it's a whole vocabulary that nobody explains to newcomers. After three years on the platform I know all of it. Here's the glossary I wish I'd had on day one.
Booking Types
- Incall
- You travel to the companion's location—their flat, a regular hotel room, or a dedicated incall space. Most common and usually cheaper than outcall.
- Outcall
- The companion travels to you—your home or hotel. Typically costs more than incall due to travel time and logistics. See the full guide on outcall vs incall for more detail.
- Double incall / Double outcall
- Bookings involving two companions simultaneously. Relatively rare but some Erobella companions advertise this as an option, either with a regular partner or available on request.
Service Style Abbreviations
- GFE – Girlfriend Experience
- A service style emphasising warmth, connection, kissing, and genuine engagement rather than a purely transactional encounter. Read the full GFE explanation here.
- PSE – Porn Star Experience
- The opposite of GFE in emphasis—high intensity, performance-focused, fewer restrictions. Not all companions offer PSE; it's explicitly listed when available.
- OWO – Oral Without (protection)
- Oral without a condom. When listed, it means the companion offers this. When not listed, don't assume or request it.
- OWO CIM – Oral Without, Come In Mouth
- Extension of OWO indicating this specific service. Only request if explicitly listed.
- COF – Come on Face
- Only offered by some companions. Never assume—only relevant if explicitly listed in their services.
- DFK – Deep French Kissing
- Kissing included in the service. Often listed separately because not all companions offer it. GFE profiles almost always include DFK.
- A-Level
- Anal services. Only offered by some companions and always explicitly stated. Never request this if not listed.
- BDSM / Domination / Submission
- Various forms of power exchange play. Companions who offer this typically have specialist profiles describing what they provide. Not a standard service.
- Massage
- Some companions on Erobella offer genuine massage services, either standalone or as part of a booking. Usually listed separately.
Community Abbreviations
- TOFTT – Take One for the Team
- Describes a client who books a new or unreviewed companion and reports their experience to help others. A community service, essentially.
- YMMV – Your Mileage May Vary
- A reminder that experiences differ between clients. What one person loved, another might not. Used when sharing reviews or recommendations.
- HH – Half Hour
- A 30-minute booking. Not all companions offer half-hour slots—check profiles.
- HR – Hour
- Standard one-hour booking.
- OVN – Overnight
- An overnight booking. Usually 8-12 hours. Premium pricing, only available with specific companions who offer this explicitly.
Profile and Platform Terms
- Verified
- On Erobella specifically, this means the companion has gone through identity verification and photo authentication. A meaningful badge—not just an email confirmation. One of the core reasons to use Erobella over other directories.
- Independent
- Works for themselves, not through an agency. Most companions on Erobella are independent. This means you're dealing directly with the person you've booked, no middleman.
- Agency
- A managed service where the agency handles bookings and dispatches companions. The person who answers enquiries may not be the companion. Some clients prefer agencies for consistency; others prefer independents for direct communication.
- Rates
- Pricing. Usually quoted as hourly rate (£X per hour) or per-session. Never negotiate rates on Erobella—they're set and non-negotiable.
- Extras
- Services beyond a standard booking, sometimes listed with additional pricing. Confusingly, sometimes used as a euphemism for specific sexual services in older terminology. On modern platforms like Erobella, services are usually listed explicitly rather than hidden behind "extras."
- Touring
- A companion visiting a city for a limited period. See the full guide on touring companions.
- Availability
- When a companion is free to take bookings. Some list specific available hours; others require contact to check. Checking availability before elaborating a full enquiry message saves everyone time.
Screening Terms
- Screening
- The process by which companions verify client identity and reliability before confirming a booking. May involve providing your name, phone number, or information about previous bookings. Standard practice for safety—don't be offended if asked.
- References
- Some companions ask for "references"—previous companions who can confirm you're a safe, reliable client. If you're new, you might not have references. Be honest about this upfront.
Etiquette Terms
- Donation / Gift
- Alternative terminology for payment, sometimes used in profiles to maintain a veneer of non-transactionality. In practice, this is the agreed rate. Pay it correctly, in full, on arrival.
- Time
- The booked duration. "Your time" on Erobella starts from when the companion opens the door (for incall) or arrives at your location (for outcall), not from when the booking was scheduled.
- No-show
- A client who books and doesn't turn up. This is the single biggest frustration for companions. It wastes their time and loses them money from bookings they turned down. Don't do it—cancel with reasonable notice if you can't make it.
Understanding Profile Services Lists
On Erobella profiles, services are typically listed as what's included. Anything not listed should be assumed not available. This seems obvious but many clients make the mistake of requesting unlisted services and it creates an uncomfortable dynamic.
The rule: if it's not on the list, don't ask for it in the booking. You can politely ask whether something is available before booking if you're uncertain, but during the session is the wrong time.
Understanding the terminology in this glossary lets you read Erobella profiles fluently—you'll know exactly what's on offer before you message, making your enquiries more efficient and your bookings more reliably matched to what you actually want.
