Safety by default

Staying safe on YachadLink

Every safety feature here defaults to on. These habits do the rest.

🛡
Everyone is ID-verified

A real person checks each member's ID against their photos before they can be seen. Verification proves who someone is, not what they intend, so still take care.

💬
Get to know them on YachadLink first

Keep chatting here until you feel sure. If someone pushes you to move to WhatsApp or another app straight away, slow down.

💸
Never send money

Not for fare, airtime, school fees, a sick relative or an investment. Anyone who asks for money should be reported.

📍
Meet in public, the first few times

Use Safe Meet to agree a café, mall or restaurant. Not a home, hotel room or car.

📲
Tell someone you trust

Add a trusted contact in Settings, then send them the meeting details with one tap.

🚕
Control your own transport

Get there and back on your own. Keep your phone charged.

🚩
Trust your instincts

You can leave at any time. Block or report from any chat or profile; the other person is never told who reported them.
