Safety tips

Meet with confidence

Simple choices can make meeting someone new feel safer and more comfortable.

Before and when you meet

01

Meet in public.

Meet somewhere public the first few times, and stay there.

02

Tell someone.

Tell a friend where you are going and who with, and roughly when you expect to be back.

03

Get yourself there.

Arrange your own way there and back. Being able to leave whenever you want matters most.

04

No money, ever.

Never send money or share financial details, however convincing the story.

05

Keep it on Carisma

until you trust them. Be careful sharing your phone number, address or workplace.

06

Trust yourself.

If something feels off, leave. You do not owe anybody an explanation.

Use the tools

Report or block from any profile or conversation; look for the blue verified seal; turn on two-step sign-in.

Emergency

Contact your local emergency services.
