Getting started
What is Wayfare?
Wayfare helps you find real, verified travel companions. You publish where and when you want to go, explore the 3D globe, swipe through compatible profiles, and once there's mutual interest you chat to plan the trip together.
How do I create an account?
Tap “Sign up”, enter your email and password, then confirm with the OTP code we email you. You can also sign in with Google. A short guided tour starts after your first login.
Do I have to pay to use it?
No. The core features — profile, trips, globe, search and chatting with matches — are free. Paid plans (Compass, Atlas, Horizon) unlock extra features.
Can I install it as an app?
Yes. Wayfare is a PWA: your browser will offer an “Install Wayfare” prompt, or use the browser menu → “Add to Home screen”. It behaves like a native app.
Profile & verification
How do I get the verified badge?
Go to “ID verification” from your profile. You'll submit a document through a secure process: once confirmed, the verified badge appears on your profile and boosts other travellers' trust in you.
What is the trust score?
It's an indicator that sums up how trustworthy you are: identity verification, profile completeness, ratings received after trips and your behaviour in the community. The higher it is, the more visible you are in search.
How do I complete my profile?
Add photos, a bio, your interests, travel style and pace, dietary needs and budget range. A complete profile gets better matches and more chat requests.
How many photos can I upload?
Up to 6 photos. The first one is your main photo, shown in results and in the swipe deck.
Finding companions
How does matching work?
You set your criteria (destination, dates, age, interests, style, budget) and Wayfare computes a compatibility score against travellers with a compatible active trip. You swipe through profiles and like whoever interests you.
What is the 3D globe?
Before you set any filters, instead of profiles you see an interactive 3D Earth: rotate it, zoom and tap cities to explore destinations.
Why don't I see any profiles?
You need search criteria: set at least a destination or some dates. If results stay empty, widen the age range, remove some advanced filters or try broader dates — there may simply be few active trips for that combination.
What do shared interests mean?
Under each profile you see the interests you have in common and the overlapping trip days: these are the main compatibility signals.
Trips
How do I publish a trip?
Go to “Create a trip”, pick the destination city, the start and end dates and add any notes. The trip becomes active and visible to other compatible travellers.
Can I edit or delete a trip?
Yes — from “My trips” open a trip to manage it. Deleting it removes you from search results for those dates and destination.
What is the shareable itinerary?
For each trip you can build an itinerary and share it via a link. Whoever gets the link can view it without an account.
Can I track trip expenses?
Yes, every trip has an expenses section to log costs and keep them under control together with your companions.
Chat & requests
How do I start chatting with someone?
You send a chat request from a profile. When the other person accepts, a conversation opens and you both get an “It's a match!” notification.
Do I get notified about new requests?
Yes: in-app notification, the bell, and — if enabled — push notifications and email. Manage it all from your notification settings.
Can I decline a request?
Of course. Declining a request doesn't notify the other person intrusively and opens no conversation.
Safety
How do I block or report someone?
From a profile or a chat you can block or report a user. Anyone you block can no longer see or contact you, and reports are reviewed by the team.
What safety tips should I follow?
Prefer verified profiles, keep early conversations inside the app, share your plans with someone you trust, and meet in a public place the first time. There's more in the Safety centre.
Is my payment data safe?
Yes. Payments are handled by Stripe and Wayfare never sees or stores your card numbers.
Plans & payments
Which plans are there?
Compass, Atlas and Horizon, with increasing perks (more visibility, advanced search and contact features). See the full comparison on the Pricing page.
Do paying members get served first in support?
Yes, and it is worth saying plainly. The support queue runs Horizon, Atlas, Compass, then free accounts. Within the same plan, whoever has waited longest goes first. Free tickets are still read and answered — they come later, not instead of.
How do I manage or cancel my subscription?
From “Subscription” in your account open the management portal: there you can change plan, update your payment method or cancel. Cancellation stays valid until the end of the period.
Can I switch between monthly and annual?
Yes, from the management portal you can switch between monthly and annual billing at any time.
Privacy & data
How do you handle cookies?
On first visit you choose what to accept from the cookie banner. Analytics turn on only if you consent; you can change your choice anytime.
Can I export or delete my data?
Yes. From your account settings you can request a data export or delete your account. Deletion is permanent.
Who can see my profile?
Other travellers who match the search criteria. Anyone you've blocked can't see you. We don't share your personal data with third parties for advertising.
Notifications & app
How do I enable push notifications?
Open notification settings and allow notifications when the browser asks. You'll get alerts for requests, matches and messages even when the app is closed.
Do I also get emails?
Yes, for important events such as welcome, new requests and matches. They're designed not to be intrusive.
How many languages does Wayfare support?
11 languages. Switch language from the picker in the top menu; your choice is remembered.
Troubleshooting
I forgot my password.
On the login screen tap “Forgot password”, enter your email and we'll send you a link to set a new one.
I'm not getting the confirmation or reset email.
Check your spam folder and wait a few minutes. Make sure the email is spelled correctly and request a new send if needed.
The site won't update or behaves oddly.
Reload the page, sign out and back in, or clear your browser cache. On mobile, closing and reopening the installed app usually fixes it.
