Choose an appropriate username
When you create an OfferUp account, you’ll need to enter a username. This name will display on your public profile to other OfferUp users and is a reflection of you or your business. You can use your real name, your business name, or a nickname. Just make sure the name you choose is appropriate and respectful to the community. Your name is a part of your reputation and can affect if buyers or sellers want to work with you.
Your name should adhere to the following guidelines:
- Your name is not offensive, profane, violent, threatening, or sexually explicit.
- Your name is not deliberately deceptive, confusing, or intentionally similar to other usernames or businesses. It should not impersonate or falsely represent you as someone else.
- Your name does not imply the intent to harass, advertise, phish, or spam other users.
- Your name does not include your contact information, such as your phone number or email address.
Secure your account
After you create an account, it’s important to take some additional steps to keep it secure. We highly encourage you to verify your contact information right away. This helps OfferUp protect your account using two-factor authentication and other verification methods.
Another way to protect your account is to become a TruYou member. TruYou is designed to help detect and prevent fraudulent behavior on our platform. To learn more, see About TruYou.
