Our safety promise

Safety isn't a feature we bolt on. It's the first thing on the menu.

How we protect you

Everyone completes ID and selfie liveness checks. 18+ only. We store the result, never your ID images.
Dates only happen at public partner restaurants — never private addresses.
The venue is revealed 24 hours before, and you can share your plans with a trusted contact in one tap.
Group chats show first names only. Phone numbers and links are blocked.
Block and Report on every profile, Pair and chat. Blocks are two-way and permanent.

Meeting tips

Tell a friend where you're going and when you expect to be home.
Arrange your own travel to and from the venue.
Keep an eye on your drink and pace yourself.
Trust your gut. You can leave at any time — no explanation needed.
Ask for Angela: many UK venues will discreetly help if you feel unsafe.
