Help & FAQ
Quick answers to the things people ask most. Still stuck? Send us a message using the form below.
Booking & requests
When am I charged?
Only after the host accepts your request. Until then, nothing is paid. If they decline, you are never charged.
Can I change or cancel a request?
You can cancel any time before the host responds at no cost. After they accept, the cancellation windows in Pricing & fees apply.
What does the host see about me?
Your public profile and the request details — date, time, occasion and venue. They do not see your private address, documents or contact details.
Payments & refunds
How do refunds work?
Refunds follow the cancellation windows: more than 48 hours before is a full refund, 24–48 hours is 50%, and less than 24 hours or a no-show is none. If the host cancels, you get a full refund including the service fee. Safety or rule breaches are reviewed by a person and refunded outside these windows.
Can I pay the host directly?
No. All payments go through Boody so we can process refunds and keep the safety review running. Paying a host off-platform can end your account.
When does the host get paid?
After a completed meeting, the host's share (meeting price minus the 15% service fee) is paid out to their connected Stripe account. Hosts handle their own taxes.
Safety & verification
What does ‘verified’ mean?
Every host submits an ID document and a selfie, reviewed by a person before their profile goes live. It confirms identity and age (21+). See verification explained.
How do I report someone?
You can report a person or a meeting at any time. Reports are read by a person and never notify the other side. You can also block someone from your chat.
Is Boody for dating or sexual services?
No. Boody is for companionship — dinner, events, travel, drinks and conversation. Sexual services are not allowed. Read the platform rules.
Your account
Can I delete my account?
Yes, at any time from your account. Your profile and data are removed within 30 days.
Do I need to be a host to use Boody?
No. Most people join to find company. You only go through host onboarding if you choose to become a companion.
