Verification FAQs

Top Rope Verification

Top Rope Verification allows you to belay on the top rope walls using a belay device attached to your harness.

Climbers should have attended a Top Rope Class OR have at least 1 year of climbing and belaying experience. Climbers would also need to be at least 13 years old to undergo verification and belay in our facilities.

Top Rope Verification is only available at Climb Central Novena as we have a wall that is specifically set up for Top Rope Verifications.

Lead Verification

Lead verification allows you to lead climb and lead belay within our facilities.

Climbers should have attended a Lead Class OR have at least 3 years of lead climbing and lead belaying experience. Climbers would also need to be at least 13 years old to undergo verification and belay in our facilities.

We do not have lead climbing facilities at Climb Central Novena.

Verification Reservation System 

We recommend making a booking to secure a confirmed verification slot as walk-ins will be subject to availability.

We will be releasing new verification slots on a quarterly basis. Do keep a lookout on our website for new verification dates!

Absolutely! You would have till the end of the day to show off your swanky new verification tag on the wall!

Ad-hoc verification requests will be taken up at the discretion of the Duty Officers on shift.

Verification is more fun when done in pairs. Please find a partner that’s either already verified or wants to be verified.

We require our climbers to show up for their verification slot on time. If you are late for your verification slot, we may push you back to a later time slot (subject to availability). However, if there are no available slots, we reserve the right to not conduct the verification and no refunds would be given.

There will be no cancellations or changes allowed for verification slots due to the limited slots available. We ask that our climbers are certain of their attendance before making their bookings for verification.

First-timers who are new to Climb Central (have never registered an account before and do not hold a Climb Central keytag) will have to arrive at least 30 mins before their verification slot to register and attend a safety briefing before they are allowed to take the test.

Do remember to indicate that you are a first-timer in your booking under the “Are you a first-timer at Climb Central?” prompt.
