## What is XGuard?

Affordable private security, on demand. XGuard is a platform for both clients and licensed security guards — schedule the kind of protection that fits your night, your event, or your property, and get peace of mind from a verified professional in minutes.

From a girls' night out to the club, to showings for high-status performers, to patrol routes for your locations and property, XGuard helps you protect what matters. Bookings can be short-term — a few hours of door coverage, a single-event detail, an overnight watch — or long-term standing assignments.

XGUARD IS A TECHNOLOGY PLATFORM, NOT A SECURITY COMPANY
We don't employ guards or provide protection services. XGuard is a marketplace that connects clients with independent, separately-licensed security professionals and agencies. All services are performed by those providers under their own credentials, insurance, and licensing — XGuard makes the connection, handles messaging and payment, and provides shift tools.

Available across the US, Australia, the UK, Canada, and New Zealand. Find a verified independent provider — usually in under 10 minutes.

WHY XGUARD
• Identity verified with Stripe Identity (government ID + matching selfie)
• Licenses checked against the issuing authority — BSIS, SLED, SIA, ACIC + 168 regulators
• Every booking documented, with real-time GPS tools for the provider
• Transparent flat platform fees — no surge pricing, no hidden markup

WHAT INDEPENDENT PROVIDERS OFFER
— Personal protection for nights out, dates, and travel
— Club, lounge & nightlife door security
— High-status performer & celebrity escort details
— Event security (concerts, weddings, conferences, private parties)
— Patrol coverage for properties, sites, and assets
— Fire watch (hot work, sprinkler impairment, post-fire monitoring)
— Construction, retail, healthcare & after-hours patrol
— Residential, estate & commercial property protection
— Protective driver, crowd control & VIP escorts
Short-term bookings and long-term standing assignments both supported.

TOOLS THE PROVIDER USES ON SHIFT
Live GPS tracking with geofenced checkpoints, QR-code patrol tour reports, hold-to-fire SOS alerts, time-stamped incident logs with photo evidence, and offline mode that syncs automatically when reconnected.

FOR SECURITY PROFESSIONALS
Licensed guards, agency owners, and off-duty officers list services on the marketplace, set their own rates, get matched by license and region, and receive direct Stripe payouts. Build a reputation with verified reviews and use the Compliance Hub for renewals, CE tracking, and insurance. Tier up — Founding Pro, Verified Pro, Elite.

COMPLIANCE & SAFETY
Region-specific license validation across the US, AU, UK, CA, and NZ. Public liability and workers' compensation verification, ABN/ACN agency credentialing, Labour Hire Licence checks where required. Encrypted chat, location used only during active shifts, no background recording, full data export and deletion — GDPR & CCPA compliant.

PRICING
The app is free. Service rates are set by the independent provider; XGuard charges a transparent platform fee on each booking. Typical rates start around $35/hr unarmed and $55/hr armed (varies by region and credential tier). Payment is held when you confirm and released to the provider after the shift completes.

HOW IT WORKS
1. Tell us what you need to protect
2. Confirm your location and shift window — short-term or long-term
3. Review verified independent providers, rates, and reviews
4. Book — the provider you chose is on the way

IMPORTANT: XGuard, Inc. is a neutral technology platform, not a licensed security provider in any jurisdiction. All security services are performed exclusively by independent third-party professionals on the marketplace, who are solely responsible for their conduct, service quality, and legal compliance. Use is governed by our Terms of Service.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.5.3 — 2026-08-19

Armed credentials for every guard.

• Guards holding a firearm licence or a permit to carry on duty can now upload it, whether or not armed work is already switched on. Previously the upload was hidden behind armed status — which is set by that very upload.
• The Firearm section now appears whenever your region recognises firearm classes, with a note explaining that armed work turns on automatically once the credential is verified.
• General performance and reliability improvements.

### 1.5.2 — 2026-08-14

Government contract bids, plus membership improvements and stability fixes.

• New Government Bid Board: browse public-sector security contracts, see the roles each one needs, and register your interest without leaving the app.
• Bids now show what each role pays — a confirmed rate, an estimated range, or an open invitation to name your own.
• On contracts where rates are still open, you can submit the rate you'd want, and it helps set the price for the work.
• Guard and Agency membership plan cards now share the same look, with clearer borders and easier-to-read benefits.
• The welcome offer screen has been redesigned so your free trial, what's included, and the price afterwards are all visible at a glance.
• Plans already covered by your current membership no longer show a Subscribe button, so you can't be charged for something you already have.
• Fixed a crash some members saw when opening the app.
• Fixed a crash when opening the payment sheet.
• General performance and reliability improvements.

### 1.5.0 — 2026-07-16

Lock in ongoing work and share the bill — Contracted Work and Split Pay are here.

NEW
• Contracted Work — propose, review, and manage recurring or fixed-term security engagements right in the app, with clear rates and terms for both sides.
• Split Pay — invite co-payers to a contract and split the cost by share, so venues, partners, or teams can cover their portion.
• Group chat — coordinate everyone on an engagement in one shared thread in Messages.

IMPROVED
• Faster, clearer contract and payment flows.
• Notifications now deep-link straight to the contract or invite that needs you.
• Various bug fixes and performance improvements.

### 1.4.0 — 2026-07-14

Work across state lines — manage credentials for every region you operate in, right from My Credentials.

NEW
• Operating regions — add every state or country you work in and switch between them with one tap.
• Region-aware credentials — My Credentials now shows exactly which licenses and certifications each region requires, with live status and clear reasons if something is rejected.
• Region-required documents surface on your dashboard so nothing sneaks up on you.
• Available 24/7 — a one-tap toggle in the schedule editor for providers who never close.

IMPROVED
• Adding a payment card is faster and more reliable.
• Document-resubmission notifications now take you straight to the right credential.
• Booking duration display fixed for date-only bookings.
• Keyboard no longer covers the search box when adding a region.
• Various bug fixes and performance improvements.

### 1.3.9 — 2026-07-04

New region-aware credential workspace to upload licences and certifications. Manage your payout bank account — add, change, or remove it. Clearer guidance when finishing your profile to verify your ID. Re-verify your phone number right from Edit Profile. Plus localization and stability improvements.
