Compensated Dating 

Translated from the Japanese word, 「援助交際 」or "Enjo-kōsai." Compensated Dating is a term used to describe young women going on dates with older men in exchange for money or gifts. These dates often end in sexual activities. It is a form of prostitution, however most women who participate in Enjo-kōsai do not view themselves as prostitutes.

Although this term originated in Japan, compensated dating has spread to other East Asian countries and has even stretched to the USA under the phrases sugar daddy and sugar baby.
