Zoosk is a real dating service used by singles to make genuine connections, and we work to keep the community authentic. Here's how — and how you can help.
Profile Verification
Members can verify their profile with a quick selfie check. A blue verified badge means the person matches their photos. You can verify your own profile too — see How do I verify my profile?
Reviewing and moderating profiles
Photos are reviewed before they appear, and our team investigates reported accounts and takes action on activity that violates our Terms of Service.
You're in control
If a profile seems fake or someone behaves inappropriately, use Block & Report. Reports are anonymous and help us keep Zoosk safe for everyone. See How do I report abuse? and Staying Safe While Dating Online.
A quick reminder
No genuine member will ask you for money or financial information. If that happens, don't send anything — report the member. For more, see Staying Safe While Dating Online.
