When you browse listings on Track and Claim, you might notice a blue checkmark or a "Verified" badge next to a user's name. But what does that actually mean, and why does it matter?

What is a Verified User?

A "Verified" status means that the user has successfully completed our identity confirmation steps. This typically involves:

• Email Verification: Confirming access to the registered email address.
• Mobile Verification: Validating a working phone number through an OTP.

This process helps ensure that there is a real person behind the account, significantly reducing the chances of interacting with bots or fake profiles.

Benefits of Verifying Your Account

If you are posting a lost or found item, we highly recommend verifying your account:

• Higher Trust Score: Other users are more likely to respond to a verified profile.
• Better Visibility: Verified listings may appear higher in search results.
• Faster Reunions: Establishing trust helps speed up communication between users.

Look for the Verified badge to interact with confidence and improve your chances of successfully recovering lost items.
