Help keep scammers and fake listings out of our rental community.

University at Buffalo (UB) Housing, Sublets & Roommates

Simplify your search for a rental or renter

Online screening is tough, take two minutes to make it easier.

Download the goConfirm mobile app

You'll need your mobile device to sign up and complete verification. Head to the iOS App Store, Google Play Store, or tap here to get the goConfirm app.

Once you’ve downloaded the app, your first step will be to enter your email and set a password. Next, we’ll move on to building your profile!

Set a profile photo

First, set a profile photo—this should be well-lit and closely cropped to your face. Make sure to choose a photo with no glasses or obstructions, and no other people in the frame.

Your profile photo will not be public, and is only shared with verified users who connect with you through a goCode you choose to share.

Verify your identity

Choose the appropriate country and ID type. Scan your ID in a well-lit room on a neutral background. Lastly, a quick face scan to make sure the person using your ID is you. You're done!

Create your goCode

You're ready to create your goCode! A unique code used to connect with others and build trust in relation to one specific transaction. Enter a descriptive name, choose all the platforms where you intend to share it, and choose an expiry date.

Copy, paste, and share

On the confirmation screen for your goCode, tap the button to copy it to your clipboard. Switch back over to Facebook, and paste it into your new draft post. Submit your post as usual!

Connect with interested members

When another member is interested in your listing or might have one that matches your needs, make sure you ask them to connect using your goCode. They can do this by entering your code in their own goConfirm app.

When they connect, you'll exchange verified profiles and have improved confidence in one another, as well as a record of your connection in the event you need it.

Love this new app! Setting up my profile was a breeze, and the extra security features it provides give me peace of mind when doing online transactions. I feel confident knowing I'm dealing with a verified user and not a scammer.
Super smooth

Selling a kitchen table. Setting up the whole transaction here was super smooth. Totally get why you'd want to go a more verified route like with this app.

I have one I'm willing to part with that I got as part of the MM pass. I'll only sell to ppl goConfirm Verified though.
Really easy identity check

When I'm buying or selling more expensive items, I always want to know who I'm meeting with. Too many scams and risks out there. This app made it dead simple and you can't beat free.
Makes selling easier

Used goConfirm when selling my bike on FB Marketplace. Last time I sold something there I had to filter out so many scam inquiries. With this, I had confidence I was dealing with a legit buyer and felt better about the meetup. Highly recommend.
Makes me feel safer as a female

I don’t typically write reviews but this app has made my life so much easier. I recently moved and had to sell a bunch of stuff on FB marketplace. As a female, I don’t usually like to meet complete strangers but this app makes me feel better since I know that everyone is who they say they are. It was very helpful during my move, and I want to tell everyone about this app so that more people use it!!
Know who you’re dealing with

Great app for more peace of mind when selling stuff in actual offline transactions irl. Definitely a must-have for fb marketplace or Craigslist deals
I wish all Marketplaces enforced this!

I created a goConfirm account because I had to verify my identity in order to join a Facebook group as a seller. I was so impressed by how seamless the onboarding experience was and how beautiful the UI is! I can't believe marketplaces have not enforced this before, it would help protect so many identity attacks and scams!

GoConfirm is an amazing idea and it truly takes 99.9% of the fear out of buying and selling in a community such as that. l've used GoConfirm before on other sites and it really is a 3 minute process to open your account and get verified.
