Last updated: 31 January 2026

While Romancha has verification systems in place, here are tips to protect yourself.

Red flags to watch for

  • Requests to pay outside the platform
  • Prices significantly below market rate
  • Hosts who won't answer video calls
  • Listings without the "Verified" badge
  • Pressure to book immediately without viewing details

Warning: Never pay outside the Romancha platform. All legitimate payments go through our secure checkout.
