Info
Trust & Verification
Doğrulama ilkesi
Document-based verification with progressive feature unlocks. Every tier opens more of the platform.
How verification works
Submit documents. We review them. You earn badges. Badges determine your tier. Tiers unlock features.
Apply for badges
Choose which badges to apply for from your supplier dashboard. Each badge has specific document requirements. Your account must be at least 1 day old.
Upload documents and fill questionnaire
Each badge has a tailored questionnaire — business name, registration numbers, supporting documents. Accepted in English or Hindi. Certified translations for other languages.
AI pre-screen, then manual review
Applications first go through an AI review for completeness and consistency. AI-approved applications proceed to manual review by our verification team. Rejected applications include a reason and can be resubmitted after 24 hours.
Badge awarded, tier updated
Once approved, the badge appears on your profile immediately. Your verification tier is recalculated automatically. New features unlock instantly.

Rejected applications include a reason. You can reapply after 24 hours with updated documents.
Badge validity and rules
Each badge has its own validity period (1–3 years depending on type). Badges must be renewed before expiration to maintain your tier.
If a badge expires or is revoked, your tier is automatically recalculated. Features locked behind the lost tier become unavailable until you re-verify.
We may conduct random audits to ensure ongoing compliance. Failure to cooperate with an audit may result in badge revocation.
Badge applications are limited to 1 per badge per 24 hours to prevent spam submissions.
