Why Verified Profiles Matter: A Safety Guide for Adults

Fake photos and advance-payment scams are common in this industry. Verified profiles are the simplest way to protect yourself and enjoy a genuine experience.

What "verified" means on Velvet

A verified profile shows real, recent photos of the companion, along with accurate age, location and languages. Every listed companion is an adult aged 18 or above.

Red flags to watch for

  • Photos that look like models from magazines or stock images.
  • Prices that are far below the market rate.
  • Requests for full payment in advance to unknown accounts.
  • Pressure to decide immediately or change the hotel at the last minute.

Consent and age — non-negotiable

All meetings must be between consenting adults. Velvet has zero tolerance for anyone under 18 and for any form of coercion or trafficking. If you ever suspect someone is underage or not acting by choice, do not proceed and report it to the authorities.

Health and hygiene

Responsible adults put health first. Respect the companion's health rules and protection requirements at all times — this protects both of you.

Meet only in safe places

5-star hotels provide security, CCTV in public areas and professional staff. That safety net is a big part of why we do not accept meetings in private homes or unknown locations.
