How meeting people near New Braunfels is planned to work
JoinTheSwing plans ID verification so members can decide who reaches them: at launch, every member will pass ID verification through Veriff (document authenticity, biometric face-match and liveness) before messaging, and a conversation will open only if you accept an introduction request. From the current Veriff check the images never reach JoinTheSwing — we retain the verification result, Veriff's session reference, a consent receipt and non-biometric review metadata — while accounts from our earlier, retired in-house pass may still have ID, selfie or couple photos in private storage until account deletion (privacy and verification policy). Venues and event groups near New Braunfels run their own calendars, so check each one's own page for dates and entry rules. New-member registration opens in 2026, once our safety and compliance checks are complete; get on the email list for the release notice.
