In an era where anyone can create a profile with stolen photos and fabricated details, identity verification has become essential for safe online dating.

The Catfishing Problem

Studies show that up to 53% of online daters have encountered fake profiles. Beyond wasted time, catfishing can lead to emotional harm and even financial fraud.

How Verification Protects You

At Pinnaya, every member undergoes a multi-step verification process: government ID check, live selfie matching, and optional LinkedIn verification. This creates accountability and trust.

Privacy and Security

We understand verification raises privacy concerns. That's why your ID is deleted immediately after verification - we only keep a badge confirming you're verified, never your documents.

The Result

Our verified community reports 94% confidence that the people they match with are who they claim to be. That peace of mind changes everything.
