Trust & safety

No fakes. No scams. Every room is real.

Before a room goes live on ez-wg, our team checks it by hand. If it isn't real, it doesn't get through.

The check

Checked first, then live.

No room appears on ez-wg until a person on our team has looked at it.

What we check

What we look at for every room.

  • The address

    We look at the address. The room has to really exist, and be where it says it is.

  • The photos

    The photos have to show the real room. No pictures from the internet, no one else's flat.

  • Who is renting

    Landlords can have their ID checked. Every room of theirs then carries the green badge.

Your protection

And we keep watching after that.

  • Your address stays private

    You only see the exact address once a viewing is confirmed.

  • Everything stays on ez-wg

    Messages and viewings run through ez-wg, so there is always a record.

  • Report in one tap

    Something feels off? Report the listing. We look at every report and take rooms down.

  • Real reviews

    Only people who actually viewed the room or lived there can leave a review.

Warning signs

How to spot a scam. Anywhere.

Our golden rule

Never pay anything before you have seen the room and signed the contract. No honest landlord asks you to.

For landlords

Good news for honest landlords.

Because every room is checked, tenants trust the listings here. That brings you serious enquiries instead of spam.
