Swipe smart, meet safe.

Safer meetings start with a Trust Request.

NoStrangers is a privacy-first way to establish trust before meeting someone you first connected with online. Be it a dating app, Marketplace, or anywhere else.

Private by default. You choose exactly what you want to share.

  • About 90 seconds
  • Bank-grade encryption

What it is

A secure digital envelope for two people.

A Trust Request lets people privately verify who they are before meeting. Each person verifies independently and chooses exactly what to place in the envelope, and you don't have to verify yourself to send one.

  • Verification happens through trusted providers, not by us reading your documents.
  • Your Government ID is never shared with the other person.
  • NoStrangers cannot view or access your uploaded Government ID document.
  • Nothing is shared simply because you verified yourself you decide, every time.
  • Verification is encouraged, not required. You're always in control of what you share.

Why it matters

The way we meet people has changed. The way we protect ourselves hasn't.

Whether it's a dating app, Facebook Marketplace, Craigslist or another online platform, people are increasingly targeted under false pretences, leading to fraud, assault, stalking, theft and other real-world harm.

This problem is growing. It's time we grew trust with it.

How it works

Four steps, about ninety seconds.

Everyone stays in control of their own information the entire way through.

  1. Step 1

    Send a Trust Request

    Create a Trust Request and share the link or code with the person you've been chatting with. No account and no app download needed.

  2. Step 2

    Send it your way

    Verify yourself first for a two-way exchange, or simply send a Trust Request without verifying yourself. Verification takes about 90 seconds, Government ID verification or Photos Verified.

  3. Step 3

    You choose what to share

    Once verified, you decide exactly which details go in the envelope. Nothing is shared automatically, and nothing is shared without your permission.

  4. Step 4

    Meet with confidence

    Each person sees only what the other chose to share, then meet knowing who you're meeting.

Why you can trust it

Built so you share less, not more.

We don't run identity checks ourselves. Verification is handled by specialist providers under their own security programmes, and we only receive the result plus the details you approve.

Your ID stays private

Government IDs are never shared with the other person. You prove who you are without exposing sensitive documents.

We can't see your ID

Government ID verification is completed directly by Veriff. NoStrangers cannot view or access your uploaded document.

Guest privacy

Guest Trust Requests are one-time only. Once completed or expired, the verification information shared during it is securely deleted.

Shared for a meeting

Information is shared for a meeting, not forever. Premium users can review a completed Trust Request for up to 24 hours, then it disappears.
