# 2meet4free — frequently asked questions > Questions and answers about 2meet4free, a free location-based social platform where adults can meet new people, make friends and date with people nearby. Official site: https://2meet4free.com ## The basics ### What is 2meet4free? **2meet4free** is a free, location-based social platform where adults can meet new people, make friends and date with people near them. You create a profile, see who is around you on a map or in a list, and start a conversation — text, photos, voice messages, or a live video call in the browser. ### Is 2meet4free really free? Yes. 2meet4free is free to use: creating a profile, browsing people nearby, sending and receiving messages and making video calls all cost nothing, and no card is asked for. There is one optional paid tier, Supporter Membership, for people who want higher daily limits and a few extra features. It is a choice, not a wall — you can use 2meet4free indefinitely without it. ### Who is 2meet4free for? 2meet4free is for adults, 18 and over, who want to make friends and date in their own area. Everyone on 2meet4free must be at least 18 years old. [Child safety](https://2meet4free.com/child-safety) is treated as a zero-tolerance matter: confirmed violations are removed and reported to the relevant authorities. ### Is 2meet4free legit? Yes — 2meet4free is a real, operating social platform, run by Intercode, a small software company based in Québec, Canada, online since 2009. Like every open platform, 2meet4free does attract people who try to abuse it, and it works continuously to remove them: - Every uploaded photo is screened automatically before it can appear publicly, and can also be reviewed by a human moderator. - An automated risk system looks for the patterns that scam and spam accounts share, and hides accounts that match them before they reach other members. - Any member can block or report any profile or message, and reports are reviewed. - Members can [verify their account](https://2meet4free.com/verification) and earn a badge, so you can tell who has proven they are a real person. Not every profile is verified, so it is still worth taking a little extra care with someone who has not been — the same care you would take meeting anyone new. ### Who runs 2meet4free? 2meet4free is built and operated by [Intercode](https://intercode.info/), a small independent software company in Québec, Canada. It is not owned by any of the large dating-app groups. ## Getting started ### Do I need an account to use 2meet4free? Yes, to see member profiles and send messages you need a free account on 2meet4free. You can look through the [list of cities and countries](https://2meet4free.com/cities/) and see how many members are where without any account at all. Signing up takes about a minute and asks for: - Your gender and who you are interested in. - An e-mail address, confirmed by clicking a link. No phone number and no payment details are asked for. 2meet4free asks for this because an account that costs nothing to create is an account that costs nothing to abuse — the sign-up is what keeps throwaway and fake profiles out of everyone else's inbox. ### Do I have to give my phone number? No. 2meet4free does not ask for a phone number, at sign-up or afterwards. There is no SMS code to wait for and no number stored against your profile. ### How much does it cost to join 2meet4free? Nothing. Creating an account on 2meet4free is free, and no payment details are requested at any point during sign-up. The optional Supporter Membership upgrade is the only thing on 2meet4free that costs money, and you are never required to buy it. ### Is there a 2meet4free app? Yes. 2meet4free has an Android app on [Google Play](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ca.intercode.app2meet4free), and the website works as an installable web app on both Android and iPhone — open 2meet4free.com in your browser and add it to your home screen. Everything works in a normal browser too, including video calls. There is no feature that requires installing anything. ## Safety and verification ### How does 2meet4free verify that people are real? 2meet4free offers a live face check. Verification is **optional** — you can use 2meet4free without it. The face check runs in your browser: it records a few seconds of you following on-screen prompts, then compares your face with the public photos on your profile. The comparison runs on 2meet4free's own servers — your face is never sent to a third-party face-recognition company, and no permanent faceprint is kept. You can erase the recording yourself at any time from your settings, without deleting your account. Full details: [how verification works](https://2meet4free.com/verification). ### What does the verified badge mean on 2meet4free? A verified badge means that person has proven there is a real human behind the profile by passing a live face check that matched the photos on their profile. It does not verify their name, age or intentions — only that the person in the photos is the person using the account. Profiles that are not verified are not necessarily fake — plenty of people simply have not got round to it. It is just worth taking a little extra care with someone who has not verified. ### How does 2meet4free deal with fake profiles and scammers? 2meet4free runs an automated risk system that scores every account on the patterns that scam and spam accounts share, and hides the ones that match before they can reach other members. It works continuously, not only at sign-up, because a stolen-photo or romance-scam account usually looks ordinary until it starts messaging. Alongside it: every uploaded photo is screened automatically before it can appear publicly and may also be checked by a human moderator; messages that follow known scam patterns are caught; and any member can report a profile or a message in one click. No platform can promise a community entirely free of bad actors. What 2meet4free can say is that removing them is continuous work, and that the tools to protect yourself — block, report, and the verified badge — are in front of you on every profile. ### Are photos on 2meet4free checked before they appear? Yes. Every photo uploaded to 2meet4free is screened automatically for nudity and prohibited content before it can be shown publicly, and moderators can review any picture. Pictures you delete are removed from the servers. You choose the visibility of each photo you upload, and private pictures are only visible to people you show them to. ### How do I block or report someone on 2meet4free? Open the profile or the conversation and use the block or report control there — both are one click, on every profile and every message. Blocking is immediate and silent: the other person is not told. Reports are reviewed by moderators, who can remove content, suspend an account or ban it outright. If something needs attention urgently, or involves a minor, use [support](https://2meet4free.com/support) and see the [child safety standards](https://2meet4free.com/child-safety). ## Messaging and calls ### How many messages can I send on 2meet4free? Messaging on 2meet4free is free, with daily limits that exist to stop mass-messaging and spam rather than to sell you anything: - A registered member can send 150 messages a day, and start 7 new conversations a day. - A verified member can send unlimited messages a day, and start unlimited new conversations a day. - Supporters have unlimited messages a day. Replying inside a conversation someone already started with you is what the message limit covers; the separate "new conversations" limit is about how many different people you can approach in a day. ### Can I video chat on 2meet4free? Yes, and it is free. 2meet4free has live video and voice calls built into the conversation page. Calls run directly in the browser — there is no plugin to install, no separate app, and nothing to pay. You can also send photos, files and voice clips inside a conversation. ### Who can call me on 2meet4free? You decide, and the widest setting is narrower than you might expect: 2meet4free will only ring you for **verified members and people you have added to your favorites**, which is the default. You can narrow it further to favorites only. There is deliberately no "anyone" option for calls — letting a complete stranger make your phone ring is a bigger privilege than letting them send you a message, so it is not offered. (Message notifications do have an "anyone" setting, if you want it.) You can change both at any time, and each device you use keeps its own setting. ### How does matching work on 2meet4free? 2meet4free has two ways to find people. You can search and browse directly — by distance, who is online, who has a photo and more — and message anyone you like without waiting to be matched. Or you can use Yes / No / Maybe, where you answer one profile at a time and 2meet4free tells you when the interest is mutual. Unlike most apps, you are not limited to people who swiped you back: the whole membership is browsable and messageable. ## Supporter Membership ### What is Supporter Membership on 2meet4free? Supporter Membership is 2meet4free's optional paid membership. Support our mission and unlock premium features. It adds: - Ad-free experience - Support the platform and keep it free for everyone - Higher daily limits - Extended map access - Supporter badge on your profile Everything else on 2meet4free — browsing, messaging, video calls — stays free whether you buy it or not. ### How much does Supporter Membership cost on 2meet4free? It costs between $0.99 and $4.99 USD a month, depending on the country you are in — 2meet4free charges less in lower-income countries rather than one global price. It is a monthly subscription you can cancel at any time, paid through PayPal. See [Supporter Membership](https://2meet4free.com/supporter/) for the exact price in your country. ### Can I cancel Supporter Membership? Yes, at any time. Supporter Membership is a monthly subscription with no minimum term and no cancellation fee. Cancelling stops the next payment; your membership keeps running until the end of the period you already paid for, and your account then simply goes back to the free tier — nothing is deleted. ## Privacy ### Does 2meet4free track me? No. 2meet4free uses no tracking cookies at all — no advertising cookies, no cross-site trackers, no Google Analytics, no social-media pixels. That is why there is no cookie-consent banner: there is nothing to consent to. The only cookies are the ones that keep you logged in and remember your own settings. Two things are worth stating plainly rather than glossing over: when you arrive from one of 2meet4free's own ads, a Google Ads conversion tag records that the visit led to a sign-up. Both are described in the [privacy policy](https://2meet4free.com/terms#privacy). ### Can other people see where I live? No. Other members never see your location on 2meet4free — only the approximate distance between you and them, rounded to the nearest 5 kilometres. Your address, your coordinates and your exact position are never shown to anyone. Location can also only be updated a few times a day, which is what stops someone from moving around to triangulate where you are. You can set your location by city rather than precisely if you prefer. ### Is my age shown on 2meet4free? No — and this is deliberately unusual. Other members cannot see your age or your birthdate on 2meet4free at all. Your birthdate is only used to decide whether you fall inside the age range other people are looking for. You can still search for people who are interested in someone your age. ### Can I hide my profile on 2meet4free? Yes. 2meet4free has three visibility levels, and you can switch between them at any time: **public** (found normally), **hidden from search** (kept out of search results and featured spots, but still reachable by anyone who has your profile link), and **completely hidden** (invisible in search and your profile page inaccessible to others). In every mode you keep your existing conversations and can still start new ones. ### How do I delete my 2meet4free account? From your account settings — there is a delete option, and it removes your profile, your pictures and your conversations. You do not have to contact anyone or explain yourself. If you only want a break, hiding your profile keeps everything intact and is reversible. ## Finding people ### How does 2meet4free find people near me? 2meet4free places you on the map as soon as you arrive, using an approximate location worked out from your connection, so people near you are visible immediately — there is nothing to set up first. You can refine it with one tap (GPS on a phone, Wi-Fi or IP on a desktop) or set your city by hand. From there you can see who is nearby on a map or as a list, filter by who is online, who has a photo, distance and more, and save a search to re-run later. ### Can I see how many members are in my city? Yes. 2meet4free publishes a [directory of cities](https://2meet4free.com/cities/) and a [directory of countries](https://2meet4free.com/countries/) showing how many members each one has, how many were active in the last week, and the split between men and women. No account is needed to look at it. ## Still have a question? ### How do I contact 2meet4free? Through the [support page](https://2meet4free.com/support), which reaches the people who actually run the site. You do not need to be logged in to write, and you do not need to leave an e-mail address — though leaving one is the only way to get a reply. --- Source: https://2meet4free.com/faq · About 2meet4free: https://2meet4free.com/about · Terms and privacy: https://2meet4free.com/terms
