Mutual interest
A match and a direct chat only come about once both people have shown interest.
Start out safely, together
Your control does not end at the match.
PaceMate helps you choose contacts deliberately, plan first meet-ups sensibly and report inappropriate behaviour.
Report and block
Chats can be reported with a reason and an optional comment. Blocked contacts disappear from the connection.
Groups under control
Hosts can offer open sessions or approve every join request individually.
For your first session
Four simple recommendations.
No system replaces attention. These basics help when meeting someone new for the first time.
Meet at a starting point that is easy to reach, busy and unambiguously named.
Distance, pace, terrain and planned duration should be clear to both of you.
Let a person you trust know where you are training and with whom.
You can end a request, a chat or a meet-up at any time.
Help and reports
When something feels wrong.
Use the report function inside the chat, block the contact and end the conversation. In case of acute danger, contact your local emergency services directly. For general feedback, write to feedback@pacemate.de.
