When should direct contact details be shared in online matrimony?
Last reviewed:
Direct answer
Direct contact details should be shared only after both sides have enough mutual interest and are ready for communication to leave the platform. Weddme’s trust report found private contact visibility on 88.97% of eligible active profiles, showing that direct contact sits behind a separate boundary in the stored settings. A profile view, interest or early chat does not create an entitlement to phone numbers, email addresses, family contacts, documents or private addresses.
