POSTING & MANAGING ADS
How do I post an advertisement?
After creating your account, log in to your Dashboard and click "Add Listing." Fill out your profile information including your name, description, location, services, working hours, and rates. Upload your photos, submit for review, and your ad will be live after approval.
How do I update my ad listing?
You can update your ad listing anytime by logging into your account and going to your Dashboard. Click "Edit" on your listing to modify your profile details, photos, rates, or availability. Changes typically reflect immediately on the site.
What information should I include in my profile?
For the best results, include: a catchy headline, detailed description of your services, accurate location (city and suburb), clear working hours, your rates for different time periods, high-quality photos, and contact information. The more complete your profile, the more inquiries you'll receive.
Can I advertise as an agency?
Yes, both independent escorts and agencies can advertise on EscortLocate. Agency listings should clearly identify as such. You can manage multiple profiles under one agency account and maintain control over all advertised content.
How do I set my ad as offline temporarily?
If you need to take a break, you can set your ad to "Offline" status from your Dashboard. This hides your listing from search results while preserving all your profile information. Simply toggle it back to "Online" when you're ready to receive inquiries again.
VERIFICATION & TRUST
How does verification work?
Our verification process confirms that the photos in your profile are genuine and recent. Submit a verification photo following our guidelines, and our team will review it. Verified profiles receive a verification badge, are prioritized in search results, and build more trust with potential clients.
What are the benefits of being verified?
Verified profiles enjoy: a prominent verification badge on your listing, higher ranking in search results, increased trust and credibility with clients, and more visibility across the platform. Verification is highly recommended for all advertisers.
How long does verification take?
Verification is typically processed within 24-48 hours. During busy periods, it may take slightly longer. You'll receive an email notification once your verification is approved.
Is my personal information kept confidential?
Absolutely. Your personal information used for verification is kept strictly confidential and is never shared publicly. We follow strict privacy protocols and comply with New Zealand privacy laws. Only the verification badge is visible to users.
FEATURES & UPGRADES
What is AutoBoost?
AutoBoost is a premium feature that automatically refreshes your listing at regular intervals, keeping it at the top of search results. This ensures maximum visibility without you having to manually boost your ad throughout the day.
How can I increase my ad visibility?
To maximize visibility: complete your verification, use high-quality photos, write a detailed and unique description, keep your profile updated regularly, use the boost feature to appear at the top of listings, and ensure your working hours are accurate.
What premium features are available?
Premium features include: Featured listing placement on homepage, AutoBoost for automatic refreshing, priority in search results, highlighted profile badge, and extended photo gallery slots. Contact us for current pricing and packages.
SAFETY & LEGAL
Is escort work legal in New Zealand?
Yes, sex work was decriminalized in New Zealand under the Prostitution Reform Act 2003. This means escort services operate legally and both service providers and clients are protected under the law. However, there are regulations that must be followed, including age restrictions and health and safety requirements.
What safety measures does EscortLocate have?
We implement photo verification, monitor for suspicious activity, and provide resources on safe practices. We encourage users to report any suspicious profiles or behavior. However, EscortLocate is an advertising platform only - we do not participate in or control any services offered between users.
How can I report a fake or suspicious profile?
If you believe a profile is fake or violates our terms of service, please contact us at support@escortlocate.co.nz with the profile details and reason for concern. We take all reports seriously and investigate promptly to maintain platform integrity.

How do I contact an escort?
Each escort profile includes contact information as provided by the advertiser. You can typically reach them via phone or the contact details listed. Always be respectful in your communications and clearly discuss services and expectations before meeting.
