What you enter before joining
A guest provides a display name, country, gender-based avatar style, age, and an optional short bio. You must confirm an age of at least 18. Funchat does not ask a guest for an email address, password, phone number, or social-media account.
Your display name, country flag, age, avatar, and optional bio can be viewed by other participants through your profile. Choose details that help conversation without revealing sensitive personal information.
How a temporary guest session works
The browser receives a short-lived access token and a protected refresh session. Closing a tab does not immediately erase the identity because brief disconnections are normal on mobile networks. Logging out deletes the guest identity, and inactive guest identities are automatically removed after the beta retention window.
If a deleted guest returns, they create a new identity. Old public messages may remain without an active profile where retention is needed for conversation continuity, security, or moderation evidence.
Registration-free does not mean rule-free
Temporary access reduces signup friction, but every guest is still subject to rate limits, community rules, automated sharing protection, reports, mutes, and administrator sanctions. A ban applies to the current guest identity and related security controls.
- Adults only: guests must be 18 or older
- External links and contact-detail sharing are blocked
- Reports enter an administrator review queue
- Repeated policy violations can lead to a mute or ban
When an account-based service may be better
A temporary guest product is useful for spontaneous conversation, but it is not designed for long-term identity, contacts, account recovery, or permanent message archives. If those features matter to you, use a service built around durable accounts instead.
Frequently asked questions
Can I chat without an email address?
Yes. Guest entry does not require an email address, phone number, password, or social login.
Will my guest identity stay forever?
No. Logging out deletes it, and the service removes guest identities after the configured inactivity period.
Can guests use private chat?
Yes. An online guest can select another participant from the member directory and start a one-to-one text conversation.
