ID Verification

About ID Verification

ID verification is optional for most members. If you choose to verify, you receive a “Verified” badge on your profile, which tells other members your identity has been independently checked.

Verification is handled by our partner Didit. You photograph a government-issued ID and take a selfie, and Didit confirms the two match. Most checks complete in under a minute. Your documents are never shared with other members, and Didit deletes them one month after the check.

When verification is required

We ask some members to verify before their account is approved. This happens in three situations:

• The age check. Every member takes a free selfie age check, when they join or, for members who joined earlier, the next time they sign in. If it cannot confirm your age, you verify with ID instead.
• VPN use during registration. If you register while using a VPN or similar service that conceals your location, we ask you to verify your identity before your account is approved. This is a fraud-prevention measure. If you would prefer not to verify, you can register with the VPN switched off.
• Moderation review. Our moderation team may request verification during the account approval process where a profile requires further checks.

Verification is a one-time fee of £1.99, whether we ask you to verify or you choose to for the badge.

If you are asked to verify and choose not to, your account will not be approved.

How It Works

1. Upload Your ID
   Snap a clear photo of your passport, driver’s license, or national ID card.
2. Take a Selfie
   Use your device’s camera to capture a quick selfie. Didit then checks that your ID matches your selfie.
3. Instant Verification
   Most approvals happen in under 60 seconds. Once you’re verified, your badge appears automatically and you’re ready to connect.

  Your badge tells others you’re serious about genuine connections.
