Questions
What's the difference between Pending and Connected?+
Pending holds requests waiting on a reply — ones you've sent (marked "Pending") and ones sent to you (with Accept/decline). Connected is everyone you've already linked with.
Who can see my email address?+
Nobody by default. The share-email tick-box is off until you turn it on, and even then it only lets connected event partners receive your email so organisers can send you a meeting schedule.
Who are RepBuddies?+
RepBuddies are the trade buyers active on RepBud. The Find directory surfaces them so you can send a connection request; they appear in your Pending list once they accept.
What does the "RepBud Real" badge mean?+
It marks a verified business on RepBud, so you can see at a glance which connections have been confirmed.
