A profile signal for inclusive travel.
Open Arms
A clearer way to show that you are welcoming and inclusive before the first message.
Open Arms is a Roamate profile signal for Roamers who want to show that they are welcoming and don't require disclosure of members of the LGBTQIA+ community.
It gives allies and community members a way to make openness visible before the first message.

How Open Arms works
Add Open Arms to your profile
When creating or updating your Roamate profile, you can choose to display Open Arms.
Show that you are welcoming
Open Arms tells other Roamers that you are open to traveling with LGBTQIA+ travelers and committed to respectful connection.
Connect with more context
Roamers can message, match, and plan with a clearer sense of who is welcoming and aligned.
We are flipping the script on the disclosure tax.
And removing your burden to always disclose.
For allies and community members
Open Arms can be used by:
More clarity. More respect. Better roaming.
Designed as a visible welcome
The Open Arms icon was created as a profile signal for inclusion. Roamate intentionally avoided generic or overused symbols. The goal was to create something warm, simple, and welcoming that fits naturally inside the Roamate experience.
Open Arms is not decoration. It is a visible way to show respect.
