Every companion is vetted, every meeting is structured, every boundary is enforced. This is what trust looks like in practice.
Getting accepted isn't easy. That's the point. Every companion in our network has passed a rigorous multi-step review before their first booking.
Every applicant undergoes a full national criminal background check through a licensed third-party screening provider. Any red flags disqualify an application immediately — no exceptions.
Applicants complete a live video interview with our team. We assess communication skills, professionalism, emotional intelligence, and how they handle real event scenarios. It's not a formality.
We contact personal and professional references to verify character and reliability. A stranger can fake a profile; references reveal who someone actually is when no one's watching.
Each companion records a short video intro that's manually reviewed before going live. We verify identity, presentation, and that the profile accurately represents the person.
Safety isn't just about vetting companions. The entire booking structure is designed to keep both parties safe from first contact to final goodbye.
Every booking includes a mandatory pre-event icebreaker at a public venue — a coffee shop, restaurant, or lobby. You meet your companion in daylight, in a safe space, before any event. No surprises on the night.
Clients and companions both verify their identity before booking is confirmed. Anonymity has no place in a service built on trust. You know who you're meeting before you meet them.
Both clients and companions can report any concern before, during, or after a booking via our in-app reporting tool. Reports are reviewed by a human within 2 hours, 24/7. Zero tolerance for violations.
Something doesn't feel right? Call or text our support line any time. A real person picks up. We're not a marketplace that disappears after the transaction — we're accountable for every booking.
These aren't guidelines. They're requirements. Violate them once and you're out — companion or client.
Every companion and every client must be 21 or older. Age is verified at application and at the icebreaker. No exceptions.
All companions agree to a written code of conduct covering punctuality, attire, communication, and appropriate behavior at all venues and events.
Harassment, solicitation, intoxication, or any boundary violation results in immediate account termination and, where applicable, law enforcement notification.
ArmCandidate operates in full compliance with local laws. Companions are independent contractors with clearly defined legal agreements before their first booking.
Companion status isn't permanent. We re-evaluate based on client feedback, reported incidents, and periodic check-ins. Standards don't slip over time.
Icebreakers and most meetups occur in public spaces. Private event venues are only permitted post-icebreaker with confirmed booking agreements in place.
ArmCandidate is a professional companionship service. No physical intimacy. No ambiguity. Any attempt to cross this line terminates the booking immediately.
Before every booking, both parties confirm a written summary of event details, duration, attire, and the scope of the engagement. Nothing is assumed.
Companions have the absolute right to decline any booking for any reason and to leave any situation where they feel uncomfortable — with full pay for time already worked.
Neither party may share photos, personal information, or contact details of the other without explicit written consent. Your privacy is contractually protected.
Companions are expected to remain socially composed throughout. Excessive intoxication by either party is grounds for immediate booking termination with no refund.
The biggest platform in this space — RentAFriend — has hundreds of reviews citing safety failures, unclear expectations, and uncomfortable situations. That's not a minor issue. It's a business model failure.
We built ArmCandidate specifically to fix that. Clear rules, enforced consistently, protect everyone involved. Companions deserve to feel safe. Clients deserve to know exactly what they're getting. Neither should have to guess.
If you ever have a concern — before, during, or after a booking — our support line is live 24/7. We take every report seriously.
