Meet new people without handing over your real number
You buy or sell something in person, answer a “for rent” or “lost pet” sign, or just met someone who wants to stay in touch. They need to reach you a few times — but you’d rather not give your personal number to someone you’ve known for five minutes.
How it usually goes
Hand over your number and it’s out of your hands. It gets saved, forwarded and sometimes sold — and weeks later the marketing calls and spam start, long after that one errand is done.
How it works in Tacq
- 1
When you decide how people reach you, give a Tacq link or show a QR code instead of your number — on a sign or note, or screen to screen in person.
- 2
They open it in Tacq and get their own anonymous ID. You sort out the details — time, address, a photo, a quick call — and neither side ever sees a phone number.
- 3
Keep it on your terms: turn off calls for that contact, keep it text-only, or add a private note so you remember who they are.
- 4
Done? Block the contact in one tap — and if they ever need you again, restore it just as easily. Your number was never part of it.
The result
You handle the one-off contact, keep your real number out of strangers’ phones, and decide exactly when the door closes — and whether it opens again.
