You may have been prompted to verify your email, phone number or social media account. Here's why:
In a world where we make transactions on an almost daily basis, it’s important to know that the people we're dealing with online are real. That is just one of the reasons why we ask you to verify your account. Here are a few others:
- Verifications are a way to show prospective Travellers that you are a real person
- Verifications prevent fraudulent transactions on the platform
- Verifications are a key way of making your profile more reliable
- Verifications help you in completing your account
You will need to verify your ID (valid driving licence or passport) if you have a personal account and business documents if you have a business account. This allows us to process payments from the bookings to you.
But how do you do that?
- Make sure you are logged in
- Click in the top right of your screen on your name (on PC) or on Menu (smartphone or tablet)
- Click on Account
- Stay on the Edit Profile page or click Trust and Verifications
- You can perform various verifications here
