Our safety approach

Peabudy is designed to help you assess strangers and coordinate a move with clear, honest information. Here is how we think about trust and safety in early access.

Evidence, not guarantees

We show which checks someone has completed. It's never a promise that they're safe.

How we check identity

Before anyone can see other members or be seen, someone from our team checks their photo ID on a short video call. We record only that the check passed and when. We don't keep a copy of your ID.

Your private data stays private

Legal identity, contacts, exact addresses and evidence are never shown on profile cards. Precise current location is never shown on a map.

You're in control

Block anyone instantly — it's bilateral and silent. Report separately if needed. Blocking someone ends interactions and any shared household immediately.

Server-enforced permissions

Every access is checked on the server. A hidden button is never authorisation. Staff cannot read private chats.

No money through Peabudy

We never take payments or deposits, and your agreement isn't a tenancy. Never pay anyone before you've seen a home in person and checked who the landlord is.

We read every report, usually within 24 hours. We're not an emergency service: if you're in danger, call 999 in the UK or 112 in Nigeria.
