Get Paid to Be a Friend in Philadelphia

If you are easy to talk to and you know this city, people will pay for your time.

Frienda companions set their own hourly rate and choose which bookings to accept - a concert, a walk, coffee, showing a visitor round. It is strictly platonic work, it fits round whatever else you do, and there is nothing to pay to join. What you make depends on your rate and how many bookings you take.

How it works

  1. Set up a free profile - what you are up for, and where in Philadelphia you are.
  2. Look through people nearby and read their profiles properly.
  3. Message someone whose plan and pace suit yours, and agree the details before you meet.

Staying safe

Meet somewhere public the first time, tell someone where you are going, and keep it short. Profiles are verified, and when a conversation starts turning into a real meetup, Friend-A prompts you to set up One Tap Alert - a free app that sends your location to your own trusted contacts at one tap. It notifies the people you choose, not the emergency services; call your local emergency number directly if you are ever in danger.

Friend-A is strictly platonic. Not dating, not adult services. Accounts that treat it otherwise are removed.

Questions

Does it cost anything to join as a companion?

No. Creating a companion profile is free.

How much do companions charge?

You set your own rate. What you earn depends on that rate, your city, and how many bookings you accept - we do not promise an amount.

Is this escort work?

No, and it is worth being blunt: Frienda is strictly platonic. Anything else is against the rules and gets accounts removed.

Do I have to accept every booking?

No. You choose who you meet and when, and you can decline without giving a reason.
