Staying safe on Whislink
Talking to strangers is the point, and it works best when both people feel safe. A few habits go a long way.
Keep yourself anonymous
- Don’t share your full name, address, school, workplace, phone number or social media handles.
- Pick a username and avatar that don’t identify you.
- Be careful with photos in chat: faces, documents and backgrounds can reveal more than you think.
- Never send money or gift cards to someone you met here.
Leave whenever you want
You never owe anyone a conversation. If a call feels wrong, end it straight away with the end-call button; you won’t be matched with the same person again in that session. You can also mute your microphone at any time.
Be the person you'd want to meet
Everyone here is 18 or older and agreed to the terms of use. No harassment, hate, sexual content or pressure. If someone asks you to stop, stop.
Report a problem
If someone threatens you or you believe a person is in danger, contact your local emergency services first. To report abuse on Whislink, email us with the time of the call and what happened.
