What forms of identification do Friends and Members need to meet?

While RentAFriend.com facilitates connections between Friends and Members, we do not mandate or manage the process of document verification at the time of meeting. However, we strongly recommend that both Friends and Members take appropriate steps to verify each other's identity for their own safety and peace of mind.

Recommended Steps for Identity Verification:

1. Pre-Meeting Communication: It's advisable to discuss identity verification during your initial conversations through our messaging system. Agree on what types of identification you both feel comfortable showing when you meet.
2. Public Meeting Place: Choose a public setting for the initial meeting where both parties feel safe. This is also a good context in which to verify IDs if agreed upon.
3. ID Types: Commonly accepted forms of identification include a driver's license, passport, or any other government-issued ID with a photo.
4. Digital Verification: Some people opt to share a social media profile link beforehand as an additional layer of identity verification. However, be cautious about sharing personal information online.

Points to Consider:

• Personal Privacy: Always be mindful of your privacy and only share information that you're comfortable with.
• Mutual Agreement: Both parties should agree on the method of identification to be used. If one party is uncomfortable, it might be a sign to reconsider the meeting.
• Platform Limitations: Please note that RentAFriend.com does not participate in or manage the verification process. All responsibility for identity verification lies with the individuals involved.

By taking steps to verify identity, both Friends and Members contribute to a safer and more trustworthy community. If you have any more questions, suspect fraud, or need additional information, feel free to contact our customer support team for assistance.
