Side by Side Safe

Company should always feel safe.

Safety isn't a badge on a page. It's checks before you meet, support while you're out, and someone to tell if something feels wrong.

DemonstrationImportant: this is a prototype. No identity check, background screening or reference check has actually been carried out on anyone shown on this site. Badges such as "Verified Companion" are demonstration labels only.

What we do

Identity verification

Every companion confirms who they are with photo ID before they can be booked.

Background screening

Criminal record screening is renewed on a regular cycle, not just once at sign-up.

References

Two personal or professional references are contacted and recorded.

Community reviews

After every connection both people rate the time together. Ratings are public.

Private safety feedback

You can tell our team something privately that the other person never sees.

Reporting and blocking

Block anyone in one tap. Reports go to a real person on our safeguarding team.

Visit check-in and check-out

Connections are started and finished in the app so someone always knows the plan.

Optional family notifications

With your permission, a family member can be told when a visit starts and ends.

Emergency support

A clearly marked help button on every visit screen, with a 24-hour response line.

Privacy controls

You choose what is shown: first name only, approximate suburb, age hidden if you like.

Code of conduct

No money lending, no personal care, no pressure. Company, and nothing else.

Incident reporting

Every incident is logged, reviewed and followed up, with a written outcome.

If something goes wrong

  1. 01

    Leave. You never have to stay, explain or be polite about it.

  2. 02

    Press the help button on the visit screen, or call our 24-hour line.

  3. 03

    A safeguarding officer contacts you within one hour and takes a statement.

  4. 04

    We suspend accounts while we investigate, and tell you the outcome in writing.

In an emergency, always call your local emergency number first.
