What Is passes.com, and Is It Safe?

Last Updated on November 2, 2024 by Mathew Diekhake

Passes (passes.com) is a social media site where creators can connect with fans. Creators can share content and fans can subscribe to the posts of creators. Many influencers use Passes to scale their brands. For instance, influencers already on Facebook, Instagram, or OnlyFans may want to use Passes as well.

ALTERNATIVES

Similar sites to Passes include Fanhouse, DoorDash, Uber Eats, thisNZlife, and SimpCity.

DESCRIPTION

The passes.com homepage had impressive graphics but I question their usefulness and objectives. When I scrolled down the page, it didn’t scroll smoothly because the graphics were so heavy. I recommend keeping your website as light as possible. I wouldn’t sacrifice the ability to scroll smoothly just for some graphics. Nothing is more important than scrolling smoothly and quickly. Scrolling should be zippy and doable in an instant. When I scrolled, it didn’t automatically scroll down the page either; first, it used my scrolling to reveal the features I could find on passes.com. Eventually, when it showed me the features, I could then begin to scroll down the screen. I don’t recommend having features that utilize the mouse scrolling wheel for them to work. I also don’t recommend having any feature that prevents the mouse from scrolling. I think the average person would understand what is happening on their screens when they scroll the homepage, but that doesn’t mean it’s a good experience. I don’t think most people would want the features on the passes.com homepage.

HISTORY

As of July 2023, passes.com has an estimated 851.5K monthly views, according to Similar Web. The Wayback Machine estimates that passes.com was founded for the first time on December 5, 1998; however, it wasn’t saved much in 2020 or 2021 and started getting saved regularly in late 2022, suggesting that it might be a new site since then. The Internet Archive has saved the domain passes.com 243 times between December 5, 1998, and August 9, 2023.

Is passes.com Safe?

I analyzed passes.com for malware and malicious content to check if it was legit or a scam. Here are the results:

I checked passes.com on Sucuri, and it returned with no issues.

Security hardening flaws:

• The ‘unsafe-inline’ keyword in Content-Security-Policy is not recommended. Affected pages:

I then ran a parasite scan with Unmask Parasites on passes.com, and it is clean.

I also checked passes.com on VirusTotal, and it is flagged as Not Recommended by alphaMountain.ai.

Further, passes.com passed all blocklist engines on URLVoid.

In conclusion, Sucuri says passes.com doesn’t have malware. Unmask Parasites says passes.com is clean of parasites. VirusTotal and Sucuri say passes.com is flagged as Not Recommended by alphaMountain.ai. OVERALL GRADE: Relatively Safe.
