How the platform works
Booking sessions: Create a profile, discover Buddies near you, send a booking request, and chat in-app. If the Buddy accepts, meet as agreed and pay the session fee directly to your Buddy at or before the session. LetMeBuddy helps you find, book, and communicate — not collect session money.
Offering sessions as a Buddy: Complete your profile, apply to become a Buddy (profile details, hangout options, and live video verification), and get approved by our team. Purchase Booking Credits to accept requests; one credit is used when you accept a booking. Session fees are paid to you directly by the customer — not through LetMeBuddy.
Permitted sessions
LetMeBuddy is for platonic, value-driven sessions: mentorship, consultation, learning, collaboration, hobbies, and companionship for public events or activities. It is not for dating-for-pay, romantic services, escorting, or adult content. Listings and chat must match what was booked.
Strictly prohibited
- Escort services, paid intimacy, or sexual services
- Romantic or dating-for-pay arrangements
- Sugar-dating or compensated companionship for intimacy
- Solicitation of prostitution or related activity
- Human trafficking, exploitation, or coercion
- Harassment, fraud, or illegal activity
- Attempting to bypass buddy verification, Booking Credits, or in-app booking and safety tools
- Fabricated identities, deepfakes, manipulated media, or misleading AI-generated content used to misrepresent yourself
Becoming a Buddy
Becoming a Buddy requires accurate listing details, live selfie video verification, and admin review. Approval is not guaranteed. Misleading listings, fake media, or policy violations can lead to rejection or removal. A photo verified badge means verification steps were completed — not a guarantee of conduct, safety, or earnings.
- List accurate hangout options, rates, and location — no misleading photos or AI fakes.
- Complete live video verification honestly when prompted.
- Do not offer prohibited services even if hidden in chat.
- Maintain enough Booking Credits to honour accepted bookings.
Verification honesty
Where we show a verified buddy badge or refer to “photo verified” users, that means the person completed our buddy verification steps: a clear profile photo, phone verification where applicable, a live selfie video while saying a one-time code, and admin review where applicable. Photo/video verification may reduce certain risks but does not guarantee identity, conduct, safety, suitability, or the quality of any session.
Buddies must not use fake, AI-generated, or misleading profile photos. The photo verified badge is only for users who completed our live selfie video verification and were approved.
Be authentic
Use accurate identity and profile details. Do not impersonate others or misrepresent qualifications, intent, or the nature of sessions you offer.
Users may not use fabricated identities, deepfakes, manipulated media, or misleading AI-generated content to misrepresent themselves, their qualifications, or the nature of sessions they offer.
Be respectful
No harassment, hate speech, threats, stalking, or abusive behaviour. Respect boundaries in chat and in person.
Prioritise safety — offline meetings
In-person meetings arranged through LetMeBuddy are at your own risk. Users must independently assess safety, meet in public where possible, and follow local laws. LetMeBuddy is not responsible for actions, injuries, losses, or disputes occurring during or after offline meetings except where applicable law requires otherwise.
- Prefer public meeting places for first sessions.
- Share plans with someone you trust.
- Leave if you feel unsafe and report through the app.
Travel & day trips
LetMeBuddy is not a travel operator, transport provider, or tour guide service. Users who choose travel-related activities arrange logistics independently. LetMeBuddy is not responsible for accidents, injuries, delays, losses, theft, or other harm related to travel or transportation.
Payments & reviews
Session fees are agreed between you and your Buddy and are paid directly to your Buddy at the session or in advance (cash, UPI, or another method you both accept). LetMeBuddy does not collect, hold, or escrow session fees, and does not process payouts to Buddies for session time.
Buddies purchase Booking Credits on LetMeBuddy via Razorpay to accept bookings. One credit is consumed when you accept a booking request. Credit packs, pricing, and welcome credits (if offered) are shown in the app. Booking Credits are platform fees for Buddies only — not session fees and not a customer payment account. If a Buddy cancels after accepting, the consumed credit is not returned. If the customer cancels after the Buddy accepted, the consumed credit is restored to the Buddy.
Buddies must purchase Booking Credits through LetMeBuddy — do not sell credits or accept bookings outside the app to evade verification or safety tools. Customers and Buddies should agree session fees clearly before meeting. Do not manipulate bookings, refunds, reviews, or chargebacks. Reviews must reflect genuine completed sessions — no bribery or retaliation.
Adults only (18+)
Accounts are for users 18+. Do not assist minors in creating accounts. Report suspected underage users — see our Child Safety Standards.
How we enforce
We review reports and may warn, restrict, suspend, or permanently remove accounts. Serious cases may be referred to authorities. False or malicious reports may also lead to action.
Report violations
Use in-app reporting and support for harassment, policy breaches, fake profiles, or safety concerns.
