Dark matter particles that couple primarily to leptons are only weaklyconstrained by data from direct detection experiments and the LHC. However,models of this kind necessarily generate effective four-lepton contactinteractions at the tree- or one-loop-level, which can be probed in $e^+e^-$collisions. In this work, precise data from LEP is used to derive limits onleptophilic dark matter in a model-independent framework. The bounds turn outto be competitive with, and in some cases exceed, limits from mono-photonevents. We also extrapolate our results to ILC energies and luminosities. Weshow that ILC data for contact interactions may be able to set the strongestlimits on TeV-scale leptophilic dark matter for couplings $g\gtrsim 1$ of themediators.
