How is Creator Verification Different From Age Verification? Follow
Creator verification and Age verification are not the same thing.
Creator Verification (your verified checkmark)
Creator verification is for creators who want the verified badge, plus access to Creator Studio and its perks.
To request creator verification, you submit:
- Platform links
- An SFW photo
You can apply here to proceed: https://www.redgifs.com/user/verify. No ID or face-matching verification is required for creator verification.
Age Verification (new compliance requirement)
If you’re accessing RedGIFs from the restricted locations such as the following:
- United Kingdom
- Kentucky
- Oklahoma
- South Carolina
- Georgia
- Louisiana
- Texas
- Indiana
- Missouri
- Kansas
- Florida
You may be asked to complete a new age verification.
This is part of the updated compliance requirements across regions and helps keep RedGIFs accessible and compliant.
What changed?
Access from the said locations is now tied to completing the age verification flow.
That means:
- Users from these locations can log in and use redgifs.com if they successfully complete verification.
- If UK users don’t complete verification, they can still access the site’s Lite version.
- If users from the US don't complete verification, they won't be able to access RedGIFs.
Why is this required?
UK and US regulations require platforms like ours to verify age before allowing access to adult content. This update helps ensure we meet current standards and can continue operating in the said locations.
Is my information safe?
Yes. Verification is handled through a secure third-party process.
- RedGIFs does not store your ID documents
- Your information is processed securely for compliance purposes
