Identity Verification

Opt in for added credibility with our secure and hassle-free identity verification service.

What is the verification service?

Our verification service ensures members are real individuals by verifying their identity through a trusted third-party provider, Veriff. Verified users will display a blue check mark by their name.

Why is verification important, and what are its benefits?

Verification promotes trust and safety in our community by helping identify real members, strengthening our mission of fostering genuine connections within THE CAGE. Verified members also gain a blue check mark, making it easier for others to identify and connect with real, trustworthy individuals.

Who can verify?

Both Premium (paid) and Basic (free) members can verify. Please see the verification page for any relevant fees.

How does the verification process work, and is my personal information safe?

Verification is completed through Veriff, a trusted third-party service specializing in secure identity verification. You’ll submit a photo ID and a selfie for confirmation. The process is quick, easy, and handled entirely by Veriff. Your information is protected under strict international data protection standards.

What type of ID can I use to verify my identity?

The types of ID you can use to verify your identity depend on where you live. Typically, government-issued IDs such as passports, driver's licenses, or national ID cards are accepted. For specific requirements based on your location, please visit our verification service website for detailed guidance: https://www.veriff.com/supported-countries

How long does verification take?

Verification usually takes a few minutes but may take up to 24 hours in some cases. You will be notified once the process is complete.

Do I need to verify to use THE CAGE?

No. Verification is optional, but highly encouraged to support a safer and more authentic community experience.

What details aren’t being verified by THE CAGE?

Photos and the written content of profiles are not verified.

Can I lose my verified status?

Yes. Verified status may be revoked if your account violates our terms of service or if your identity is no longer valid.

Does verification expire?

Yes. After two years, your verification will expire, and you will need to complete the process again using current information.
