More questions? We’re here.
So, is this a dating app?

No. BorrowAPal is for platonic company only. No romantic, intimate, or sexual services, and no expectation of a relationship after a booking.

What am I actually paying for?

Your Pal’s time: their hourly rate multiplied by 1–6 hours, with no added buyer platform fee. You also pay their agreed meal, ticket, or other activity expenses directly to the venue, within the budget you both approve.

Can I book a Pal to help with a task?

A Pal is company, not hired help. Watching a game together? Absolutely. Moving furniture, cooking, tutoring, caregiving, errands, or professional advice? Those aren’t part of BorrowAPal.

How does BorrowAPal approach safety?

The pilot is for adults meeting in public places. Both people agree to the plan and sign a booking agreement. Live launch requires identity screening and payment onboarding. No check can guarantee safety; you can leave an uncomfortable situation and report it.

Where can I find a Pal?

We’re starting with New York City, the Hamptons, and San Francisco. This local preview uses sample profiles so you can explore the experience before live bookings open.

Cancel this plan?

The refund follows the cancellation policy shown on your booking. Venue purchases have separate rules.
