How do collaboration confirmations work?
JustCollabs uses a secure, multi-step confirmation process to ensure all collaborations are genuine and verified.
The Confirmation Workflow
Step 1: Collaboration Request
- Someone adds a collaboration that includes your handle
- You receive a notification in your dashboard
- The collaboration shows as "pending" until you respond
Step 2: Review & Verify
- You can see the post URL and collaboration details
- Click the link to verify the content actually exists
- Check that you were genuinely involved in creating that content
Step 3: Confirm or Deny
- Confirm: If you participated in the collaboration, click "Confirm"
- Deny: If you didn't collaborate on this content, click "Deny"
- Flag: If it seems fake or inappropriate, use the flag option
Step 4: Mutual Verification
- Both parties must confirm for the collaboration to be verified
- Only confirmed collaborations count toward your connection total
- Confirmed collaborations appear on both profiles with a verified badge
Security Features
- 🛡️ Community Flagging: Users can report fake or inappropriate collaborations
- 👁️ Admin Review: Flagged collaborations get reviewed by our moderation team
- ✅ Mutual Confirmation: Both parties must agree for verification
What Shows on Your Profile
Before Confirmation:
- Pending collaborations don't count toward your total
- They don't appear on your public profile
- They don't boost your search ranking
After Confirmation:
- ✅ Verified collaboration appears with a confirmation badge
- 📈 Your connection count increases
- 🔍 Your search ranking improves
- 🔗 Others can click to view the actual collaboration content
Best Practices
- Always verify the content before confirming
- Only confirm genuine collaborations you actually participated in
- Flag suspicious requests to help keep the platform trustworthy
- Respond promptly to help others build their verified networks
Remember: The confirmation system protects everyone by ensuring only real collaborations get verified, which maintains the integrity and value of connections on JustCollabs!
