Your Community Profile
Your profile introduces you through what you actually do — participation, contributions, reviews, and badges earned over time.
What this means inside swapup
- A profile grows from real activity instead of self-description alone.
- Reviews and recognition come from people you have genuinely worked with.
- You decide what appears publicly. Private activity stays private.
Examples
Illustrations only — not live listings or real member activity.
- Here's what this could look like: after a handful of completed exchanges, a member's profile shows the kinds of help they reliably provide.
- Here's what this could look like: someone new joins with an empty profile and builds it up one small contribution at a time.
How it works, step by step
- 1Add what you can offer and what you're looking for.
- 2Join the communities you already belong to.
- 3Complete an exchange, event, or contribution.
- 4Receive a review from the other person.
- 5Watch your profile fill in with real evidence over time.
Good to know
- This is not a numeric social score, and members are not ranked against each other.
- Nothing from your activity is published publicly without your control over your profile settings.
