The compatibility‑first way to roam.
Where other apps list people and trips, Roamate™ builds the match. Solo but shared. Matched not random. Split never doubled.
Why solo travelers switch to Roamate
Solo travelers keep running into the same five friction points: cost, safety, planning fatigue, flaky “maybe next year” friends, and shallow connections. Most apps solve one—maybe two.
- Solves all five at once with compatibility matching and trip‑planning tools.
- Travel your way: share a room/cabin, keep separate stays, or just meet in‑destination.
- Cleared to Roam™ (optional) adds identity + criminal background checks (where legal) for added peace of mind.
The Roamate difference
Compatibility, not coincidence
Vibe Check builds your travel‑style profile—pace, budget, boundaries, planning style—so you meet people who roam like you.
Flexible by design
Split the cost, keep your own place, or meet for a day/dinner—your trip, your rules.
Safety & peace of mind
Cleared to Roam™ (optional): identity + criminal background checks (where legally available), plus report/block in‑app.
Plan together, faster
Post/join trips with RoamList, align expectations in chat, and save ideas from RoamBoard to the RoamPlanner.
Real price clarity
Per‑person math surfaced so “double occupancy” finally feels fair.

Dates, vibe & budget
Post your plan—let compatible Roamates raise a hand and join the parts that fit.
Safety &
peace of mind
Signals, guardrails, and clear expectations—so sharing space (or just meeting up) feels simple and sane.
Cleared to Roam™ (optional)
Third‑party identity + criminal background checks (where legally available) add a visible trust signal on profiles.
In‑app guardrails
Report/block tools and clear boundaries set in chat—so expectations are explicit before anyone books.
Transparency first
Share expectations before you share space—how you split, house rules, schedule, and non‑negotiables.
End the Solo Tax™
Rooms and cabins are priced for two. Roamate turns “double priced” into per‑person fair—without turning your trip into someone else’s itinerary.

FAQs
Do I have to share a room?
Solo but shared means it doesn’t have to be either/or. You can split costs and share a room if you want—or keep separate rooms and simply have a travel companion or meet‑ups in‑destination.
Is verification required?
No. Cleared to Roam™ is optional. Where legally available, third‑party ID + criminal background checks add a visible trust signal to profiles.
How do I know we’re a good fit?
The Vibe Check creates a travel‑style profile—pace, budget, vibe, boundaries, planning style—so your matches reflect how you actually travel. Then align expectations in chat.
Can I just meet up and keep my own place?
Absolutely. Choose meet‑ups only—keep separate stays and link up for a food tour, hike, or day trip.
What if plans change?
Prefer flexible rates, and agree in chat how deposits, refunds, and name changes are handled before you book. That clarity is part of the guardrails.
How does “Split never doubled” work?
Rooms and cabins are priced for two. We surface per‑person math so double‑occupancy finally feels fair—no “solo tax.”
Is Roamate gender‑inclusive?
Yes—all are welcome. Use comfort filters and preferences to match how you want to roam.
How do trip posts work?
Share dates, vibe, and budget; compatible Roamates can raise a hand. Align in chat, then choose to share a space, keep separate stays, or just meet up.
