How To Upload Your Profile picture and Complete Your Profile

Your profile is often the first introduction another member has to you.

Before a conversation begins, people may want to understand your appearance, values, interests, faith and intentions.

That is why completing your Covenant Connect profile matters.

A good profile is not about pretending to be perfect. It is about presenting yourself honestly and giving others enough information to determine whether there may be meaningful compatibility.

Start with a Clear, Recent Photo

When prompted to upload a photo after creating your account, choose one that clearly shows your face.

Avoid sunglasses, group photographs and filters that make it difficult for others to recognise you.

Your photo will be reviewed before it becomes visible, as part of the platform's moderation process.

Tell Your Story

After uploading your photo, navigate to Settings → My profile.

This section contains the information other members and your Spotlight matches can see.

Complete the available fields, including:

• About you.
• Core values.
• Interests.
• Faith level.
• Church role.
• Profession.

Think carefully about what you share.

What values guide your decisions? What interests are important to you?

How does your faith influence your daily life?

These details give potential connections a clearer understanding of who you are beyond your photograph.

Why Profile Completeness Matters

Covenant Connect requires at least 60% profile completeness before you can connect with other members.

This requirement encourages members to provide meaningful information before reaching out to others.

Rather than rushing through the process, use the opportunity to create a profile that represents you accurately.

Add More Photos or an Introduction Video

You can also use the media editor to add additional photographs or a short introduction video.

These additions can provide more context about your personality and help others become familiar with you.

Ensure that any content you upload represents you honestly.

Save Your Changes

Once you have completed your profile, save your changes and confirm that your information has been updated.

You are now better prepared to explore the platform and connect with other members.

Your Profile Is Your Introduction

You do not need to manufacture an impressive personality or exaggerate your achievements to attract attention.

You need to communicate honestly.

A thoughtful profile gives others a better opportunity to understand your values, intentions and the person you are becoming.

Complete your profile today and take the next step towards intentional connection.
