Set aside about 30 minutes. It is long on purpose. Every answer is read personally by Daniel & Jennifer, and it is the foundation of every introduction we make.

YOKED DOES NOT CONDUCT CRIMINAL BACKGROUND CHECKS ON ITS MEMBERS.
We verify every member's government-issued photo ID, and we screen every member against the national and Texas sex offender registries before they are approved. Those checks are real, and everyone goes through them, but they are not criminal background checks, and we will not pretend otherwise. Meeting anyone new carries risk. Meet in public, tell a friend where you're going, and trust your gut.
Why we check this hard: 1 in 7 American adults has lost money to a romance scam (McAfee, 2026). On the apps, you're on your own. Here, every person you meet has handed us their ID first.
