What is the purpose of Dating ID?
In online dating, you surely would not know which person you chat or talk to is real or fake, as you only communicate through phone or computer only. If you're a man and you doubt if women on dating sites are real, they also do the same for men they meet, that's why they ask for your dating ID.

Are you trying to determine if the Internet can be safe for online dating? There are hundreds of ways to meet new people online but there are risks from online dating and can be scary. The safety of online dating is one that should be carefully consider when setting up Internet dating profiles and we can help make it safer for you and for your contacts. 

The fact is that online dating sites provide a great opportunity to expand your horizons. However, many people stay away from them because they are concerned about getting scammed or conned. Still others report being worried about not knowing who they are really dealing with when they meet someone online. This is where verifying an ID comes in handy! Most of us would feel better if we knew we were viewing a verified online dating profile right? Yes, of course because this would tell us that the person we are dealing with is real and they are not hiding something if they took the time to be verified.

How online dating verification works?
We take online identity verification seriously. We do the legwork so you feel confident that people are who they claim they are. We make sure to match up photos, identification cards and people’s names. We even provide code so people can embed their verification site seal on their websites and other online profiles. In order to be valid, the code must be placed by the user. If someone else posts the code they get a warning the verification is not valid. This is one of the reasons we are gaining popularity. We not only verify people but we take extra steps to make sure no invalid person can use someone else's code.

What about security?
Because we make sure that only one person can use a verification site seal code, we make sure that your information is secure. You show only what you want to show on your profile, you have complete control. However, it’s also up to you to make sure your contacts are verified as well. If people refuse to have their identity verified here you should ask yourself what they are trying to hide. This is especially true when you are using online dating sites to meet new people since you never know where a person lives or if they are even real.

When is verification helpful?
Verification of ID on any site is beneficial. It protects users at all levels of interaction from the first shared email to the time you finally meet face-to-face. After all, you know if someone has taken the time to verify their identity the person you are meeting is real, their photo is real and they are using their real name.

The Internet offers a significant degree of anonymity but the problem with this is it often leaves people feeling vulnerable to fraudulent transactions and people who are nameless and faceless. You can minimize the risks from online dating ads by using verification of ID. It’s not perfect but until the Internet decides that everyone must display a real name and a real photo, it’s the best possible option for staying safe at online dating sites. 

Why do I need to provide my CC info in dating websites?
Dating sites nowadays are mostly full of fake profiles or so-called scammers. How do we know who is fake and who is real in a dating site? You can easily fake a profile but not a credit card, so dating sites require members to use a credit card to verify their identity.

How to verify yourself for online dating?
Many members from online dating sites are asking us on email if getting yourself verified in dating sites is really free or not. Well, dating verification is actually free of charge, you just need to provide your complete information including your card details to verify your age, citizenship, and reputation/background in dating sites. We scan dating sites, forums, review sites, etc. and check for any bad records of the member applying for the verification.

But since members of dating sites abused the free verification, we can't moderate the large numbers of members applying specially the fake ones. That's why decided to remove the free verification to avoid bogus members trying to verify using fake information like fake names or credit cards.

Although you can still qualify for the free verification and you won't be charged, that is if you have a clean reputation in dating sites and also if you have done and completed the dating verification process already before.
