Verification here means a live photo capture matched against the uploaded gallery, with an optional identity or income review for members who want the higher trust badge. Verified accounts carry a visible marker on every card and in every conversation, and unverified profiles stay out of public search until they clear that check.
We do not claim that verification eliminates every risk - no platform can. What stronger verification does is give members a real starting point: a person who has been checked is easier to evaluate than a stranger with an unverifiable photo. Reporting is one tap, blocking is immediate, and flagged conversations are reviewed by a person, not a script. More detail on the process, including what happens after a report, is covered in our FAQ.
