Verifying your identity
What verification is, when you need it, and what the statuses mean.
Identity verification confirms you are a real, identifiable person. It exists so that people can accept an invitation into a home with some confidence about who is on the other end.
When you need it
To host an Open or Request to Join event at a private residence. Everything else on Splirg works without it, including a Private event at your home.
How to verify
- 1Go to My Profile.
- 2Start verification from the verification section.
- 3Follow the prompts from our verification partner — a government ID and a selfie.
- 4Wait for the result. Checks run after you submit, so it is not instant.
What the statuses mean
- •Verified — done. A verified badge shows on your profile and on events you host.
- •Still processing — submitted, checks not finished. Come back in a moment.
- •Could not be completed or expired — the session did not finish. Start again.
- •Not approved — the check did not pass. If you think that is wrong, contact support.
We never see or store your ID document. Verification is handled by our verification partner; Splirg only receives the result.
