When one or more of the photos in your advertisement have been rejected, you will receive a notification in your ‘My Kinky’ account.

In that notification, you can see exactly why the photo was rejected.

Is the reason not entirely clear?

Then check below to find out what the rejection reason means and what you can do to have your photo approved.

You have placed a photo of someone else 

The photo does not show you, but another person. 

Only photos of yourself, as the advertiser, are allowed on the platform. This prevents misleading content and ensures that visitors know who they might be meeting for a date. 

Tip: delete this photo and upload a different one that clearly shows you as the advertiser. 

Your photo is not relevant 

The photo has no direct connection to you or to the content of your advertisement. 

For example, it might show only toys, an SM or massage room. Photos in your advertisement should show who someone might be meeting for a date, not what or where. 

Tip: delete this photo and upload a new one where you are also visible, for example together with the toys or in the room. 

Your photo has been placed twice 

The same photo has been added to your advertisement more than once. 

Photos help potential dates get a good impression of you. Uploading the same photo several times adds no value. 

Tip: make sure each photo shows a different pose, and consider changing your outfit for more variety. 

Your photo is too much of the same 

The photos in your advertisement look very similar. 

Too many alike photos don’t give a clear impression of who you are. Make sure your photos show variety and reveal more of yourself. 

Tip: delete this photo and upload others with a different pose, outfit, or location. 

Your photo is of poor quality and or size 

The overall quality of the photo is too low. 

A photo should give a clear and realistic impression of you as the advertiser. When a photo is too dark, blurry, low resolution, or a screenshot, it doesn’t represent you well. 

Tip: delete this photo and upload only clear, well-lit photos of yourself. Do not upload screenshots or photos with borders. 

There are other people in the photo 

There are other people in the photo besides you as the advertiser. 

For privacy reasons, only you as the advertiser may be visible. You decide to give permission for your own photo to appear on our site, but we do not have that permission from the other people in the photo. 

Tip: delete this photo and upload one where only you are visible. 

There are contact details in the photo 

Contact details are visible in the photo. 

Contact information, such as a phone number, email address, website, or social media name, is not allowed in photos. This rule helps prevent unsuspecting people from being contacted or harassed. 

Tip: delete this photo and upload a version without contact details visible. 

Only clean (unedited) photos are allowed 

The photo is too filtered or edited. 

A photo is meant to give your potential date a realistic impression of you. When a photo is too filtered or too heavily edited, it no longer looks realistic. 

Tip: delete this photo and upload an original version without filters or edits. 

Show some more of yourself 

The photo is a close-up of a body part, and that is not allowed. 

A photo should give your potential date a good impression of who you are. After all, they are meeting you, not just a body part. 

Tip: delete this photo and upload a photo that shows more of yourself. 

Photos differ too much from the verification photos 

The difference between the photo and the verification photo is too big. 

The verification photo shows us who you are as the advertiser. When a photo was taken a few years ago, or is too edited or filtered, it no longer reflects reality. 

Tip: delete this photo and upload only recent, unedited, and unfiltered photos of yourself. 

The service offered does not correspond to the content of the advertisement 

The photo does not match the content of your advertisement. 

A photo should match what you offer. Make sure the photo reflects the same message as your advertisement, for example no BDSM setting for a massage advertisement. 

Tip: delete this photo and upload one that fits the content of your advertisement. 

Your photo is not according to the rules 

The photo does not follow the general rules for photos on the platform. 

There can be different reasons for this. Please check the customer service page for all the rules that apply to photos. 

Tip: delete this photo and upload only photos that follow the platform’s photo guidelines.
