What does the Halo represent?At Onest, every user that uses the app must go through an initial verification process so that you have piece of mind that the user you are speaking to is a genuine person, however we strive to go one step further and give users the ability to verify each other. You may have met someone for a date and decided not to continue further. Remember, this doesn't reflect who you or they are as individuals. Why not give them a boost by verifying their profile (halo)? This helps increase their chances of finding a great match. Be kind, be Onest.
