Trust, verification, and safety

Last updated on Mar 31, 2026

Takers is designed to be a safe and trusted place for both Posters and Takers to work with confidence.

We combine identity verification, secure payments, and in-app protections to keep everyone safe.


Identity verification
All users go through verification using our trusted partner, Dojah.

This may include:

  • A government-issued ID

  • A quick selfie check

  • Basic personal information

Verified users are easier to trust and more likely to get hired or chosen.


Secure payments (escrow)
All payments are handled securely inside the app.

  • Posters pay upfront

  • Funds are held safely while the work is ongoing

  • Payment is only released when the job is approved (or auto-approved)

This protects Posters from unfinished work and Takers from not getting paid.


Safe communication
All conversations happen inside the Takers app.

This keeps everything clear and recorded, so if anything goes wrong, our support team can step in and help.

We strongly recommend not moving conversations outside the app.


Protecting your information
Your privacy is important to us.

  • Your personal details are kept secure

  • Your exact address is only shared after a Take is assigned

  • Sensitive information (like ID details) is never visible to other users


Reporting issues
If something feels off or unsafe, you can report it directly in the app or contact support.

We take every report seriously and may suspend accounts that break our rules.


What to avoid
To stay safe, always avoid:

  • Sharing personal or payment details outside the app

  • Sending or accepting payments outside Takers

  • Continuing with users who behave suspiciously


Tip
The safest way to use Takers is simple:
work with verified users, keep communication in-app, and always pay through the platform.
