Frequently asked questions

Short answers to the things people ask us most often. If you can't find your answer here, drop us a note via the contact page.

Is babesintown legal in the Netherlands?+

Yes. We operate in line with the April 2026 Dutch regulations: every advertiser is 21+, identity-verified, and holds a valid Dutch work permit. We never process paid bookings or explicit content — we're a classifieds platform.

How is an advertiser verified?+

Advertisers upload a government ID and a matching live selfie. Agencies additionally upload their KvK registration and work-permit paperwork. Nothing goes live until a human reviewer approves.

What does the 'bump' do?+

A bump pushes the advertiser's card to the very top of their city listing in real time (under a second). Bumps are sold in packs and consumed one per push.

How quickly do bumps update the public listings?+

Instantly. We use tag-based cache invalidation, not a 60-second TTL, so a paid bump moves the card up within a second of commit.

Is my browsing private?+

Yes. We don't attach advertising trackers to the profile detail pages, we don't require an account to browse, and we don't log phone clicks against individual IPs.

How do I contact an advertiser?+

Each profile shows a direct phone number plus WhatsApp and Telegram links when the advertiser has provided them. All communication happens off-platform.

Can I leave a review?+

Yes, but only if you have an account and only after the 24-hour cool-down window. Reviews must comply with our community guidelines — no full names, no identifying detail about third parties.

What do VIP and TOP badges mean?+

VIP is the top paid tier — animated photos, larger card, appears above standard ads. TOP is a mid-tier boost. Both are editorially independent from the verification status.

I'm an advertiser — how do I sign up?+

Registration opens at launch. You'll create an account, upload the required documents, build your profile, and pay for placement credits. Profiles stay offline until a reviewer approves them.

Which cities and countries do you cover?+

We launch in the Netherlands and Belgium. DACH (Germany, Austria, Switzerland) follows as ring 2. Every country has its own domain and its own local rulebook.
