How are Friends vetted before they appear on the platform?

The integrity and safety of the RentAFriend.com community are top priorities for us. While we do not perform background checks on Friends, we have established certain verification procedures to maintain the quality and authenticity of profiles on our platform.

Verification Steps

  1. Email Verification: All Friends must verify their email address as a first step to creating a profile. This is to ensure that we have a way to contact them and to add an initial layer of verification.
  2. Photo Submission: Friends are required to upload at least two photos for their profile.
  3. Moderation and Algorithms: After the photos are uploaded and the profile is completed, it then undergoes a review process. Our team of moderators, along with auto-moderation algorithms, scrutinizes the submitted information and photos to make sure they comply with our guidelines and quality standards to the best of our ability.

Important Considerations

  • No Background Checks: It's important to note that RentAFriend.com does not conduct background checks on Friends. We encourage Members to do their due diligence and make their own judgments when interacting with Friends.
  • Safety Tips: Always prioritize safety when meeting a Friend for the first time. Meet in public places, let someone know where you'll be, and consider other safety measures.
  • Profile Updates: Any updates to a Friend's profile also undergo the same moderation process to ensure ongoing compliance with our guidelines.
  • User Feedback: We strongly encourage Members to report any suspicious or inappropriate behavior they encounter, as this helps us maintain the quality and safety of our platform.

By adhering to these verification steps and moderation processes, we aim to create a community where Members can find Friends that meet our quality standards. If you have any questions or concerns regarding our vetting procedures or any other aspects of our service, please feel free to reach out to our customer support team.
