Getting verified on a dating app is a simple process that confirms your dating app identity and can actually make it easier for you to find matches. The verification process is short and simple and can usually be completed in under five minutes by either sending selfies or submitting a form to the dating app company. This security and safety feature is pretty straightforward to implement and makes dating platforms safer for all users.
Steps
Question 3 of 4:
How Do I Get Verified?
-
On Tinder [4] X Research source
- Before starting, make sure you have allowed Tinder to access your camera so you can take pictures during this process.
- In the Tinder app, click on your profile and tap on the grey checkmark icon next to your name.
- Press the Next button to get started.
- Tinder will give you a photo with a pose for you to copy. Mimic the two different poses, take a selfie in those poses, and then upload the pictures to the app.
- Once you have uploaded your photos, it will take around 2-3 days to receive verification confirmation or rejection. If you are accepted, a blue tick will appear next to your name and you will be all set.
-
On Bumble [5] X Research source
- Tap the verify button in your profile or on another person’s badge.
- Bumble will present you with one of a hundred random photo poses. Take a selfie mimicking the pose.
- Once you take your photo, Bumble will walk you through sending it to Bumble admins. Be sure to follow the in-app instructions.
- Your photo will be reviewed by a real person on Bumble’s team to confirm your identity.
- After a few minutes, you will receive a confirmation of your verification (or a rejection, in which case you will need to restart the process).

On Grindr [6] X Research source
- Start by submitting a request to Grindr to verify your identity. Fill out this form .
- Next, you will need to complete one of these steps based on how you first created your account. Attach the pictures to the form above after you have taken them.
- If you created your account via email , take a picture of you holding a piece of paper with the email address associated with your Grindr account written on it.
- If you created your account through Apple, Google, Facebook, or any other third-party application
, take a selfie of yourself holding a piece of paper with your device ID written on it.
- You can find your device ID number on the opening screen when you first open Grindr.
- If you have an account without a profile photo, include an image of an official government ID with your name and photo visible, in addition to the selfie options above.
- Grindr will contact you once your account and identity are officially verified.

On eHarmony
- eHarmony's premium RelyID verification service uses a two-part test to verify your identity.
- The first part requires your legal first name, last name, and your address.
- The second step is a multiple-choice test that will ask you a series of verification questions. For example: Which state was your driver's license issued in? or What's the name of your bank?
- The test will immediately let you know if you passed and are verified.
- This premium feature costs $5.95 per year and is available for purchase for anyone who has an eHarmony account.
- After you've purchased RelyID and passed the two-step test, your badge will be good for up to one year.
