Frequently asked questions

Cannot find your answer? Contact us.

Account

How old do I have to be?
You must be at least 13 years old. Your date of birth is used to apply age protections and is never shown on your profile.
Can I sign in with Google?
Yes, when it is enabled you will see a "Continue with Google" button on the log in and sign up pages. New Google users still choose a username and confirm their date of birth.
I did not receive the verification email.
Check your spam folder, then use "Resend link" on the verification page. You can request one new link per minute.
How do I delete my account?
Open Settings and choose the account section. You can export your data and delete your account from there.

Safety and messages

Who can message me?
Minors and adults cannot send each other private messages. Blocking always wins: a blocked person cannot message you. You can also mute people and conversations.
How do I report something?
Use the report option on posts, comments, listings and profiles. Reports go to a moderation queue and staff actions are logged.
Does following someone let them message me?
No. Following never unlocks messaging.

Marketplace

Who can sell?
Only verified adults with a verified email address. Digital goods also need staff approval before they go live.
Does Gtrade handle payments or shipping?
No. Gtrade lets members list items and talk to each other. It does not process payments, hold funds or ship goods, and it is not a party to any deal. Be careful and report anything suspicious.
What is not allowed?
Stolen or hacked accounts, cheats, malware and counterfeit goods are prohibited. Listings can be reviewed and removed.

Privacy and data

Who can see my date of birth?
Nobody. It is never shown publicly.
What happens to my ID if I verify my age?
It is stored privately, seen only by authorized staff, and deleted once the decision is recorded. See the Privacy Policy for details.
