Account Verification

What is the “Verified” badge?

We want Hozuko to be a safe place for renters and owners. One way we do this is by checking identities.

When someone verifies their identity, we show a green Verified badge on their listings and place them higher in search results.

How users get verified:

  • Singpass: for individuals who verify using Singapore’s National Digital Identity platform.
  • Business check: for selected businesses we manually verify.
  • Property Agent check*: for agents with an active registration in Singapore (employed by a licensed estate agency).

*Verification reflects eligibility at the time of review and isn’t an endorsement. Status can change; please exercise due diligence.

⚠️ Does “Verified” mean 100% safe?

No. Verified listings are much less likely to be scams, but the risk is not zero. Scammers change tactics, so you still need to be careful.

📝 Tips for Staying Safe

  • Stay alert: Tell us or the police if something feels wrong.
  • Don’t pay upfront: Never send money before you confirm the property is real.
  • Check ownership: Ask for proof if you’re talking to a landlord or tenant directly.
  • Check agents: Look up their number on theCEA Public Register. Meet them in person if possible.
  • Don’t rush: If someone pressures you to decide fast, take a step back and think.
