SIZZL Joins Forces with OneID to Create the World’s Safest Dating App

UNITED KINGDOM / AGILITYPR.NEWS / November 19, 2024 / Innovative dating up SIZZL is thrilled to announce its relationship-- pardon, partnership with OneID, the leading government-certified identity verification provider. The integration sets a new standard in online dating security, making SIZZL the safest dating platform on the market. This is only the latest in a series of bold steps to counter the rising risks associated with online dating.

Fake profiles and romance scams are rampant, made even easier by the use of AI to create hundreds of fake profiles for a variety of ends - none of them good. SIZZL and OneID have joined forces to eliminate these threats. Thanks to advanced open banking technology, OneID verifies that each user is a real person, over the age of 18, and precisely who they claim to be - nipping any fake and AI-generated accounts in the bud. 

This collaboration puts SIZZL ahead of the UK’s Online Safety Act (OSA), with a level of accountability and authenticity unmatched by any other app in the dating space. While many dating platforms turn a blind eye to the issues of catfishing, fake profiles, and unsolicited messages, SIZZL is addressing these concerns head-on. 

Statistics from the past few years highlight the urgency of SIZZL’s safety-first approach. Online dating scams have soared to an all-time high, with 1 in 10 profiles on popular platforms like Tinder and Bumble believed to be fake. This widespread problem, which leaves millions vulnerable to emotional and financial harm, has largely been ignored by existing dating apps.

“With our partnership with OneID, we’re raising the bar for what users should expect when it comes to safety in dating apps,” said Gillian Myhill, Co-Founder of SIZZL. “Online dating can be fraught with risks, and we are determined to provide a space where people can feel safe, protected, and secure. We believe our users deserve peace of mind, and that starts with accountability.”

You may think this makes the onboarding process long and complicated - and you'd be wrong! Made to prioritise both security and simplicity, the process takes under 30 seconds. OneID’s open banking technology, already trusted by major brands like Shopify, NatWest, and Adobe, makes it easy for users to verify their identity in seconds, ensuring a smooth yet secure experience.
