Online credential verification
Online credential verification for businesses
Customers want proof before they call, quote, or book. Credentials AI TrustBadge gives businesses a customer-facing way to show online credential verification for ABN details, licences, insurance, compliance documents, and other trust proof.
What is online credential verification?
Online credential verification gives customers a clear place to review business proof. Instead of hiding licences, insurance, ABN details, and compliance documents across emails, PDFs, or old web pages, a TrustBadge profile can show what has been checked and what is still pending.
For local services like plumbers, electricians, builders, cleaners, pest control, HVAC, maintenance, and mobile trades, verified proof is a trust signal. Customers are letting someone into their home or business. Clear credentials help reduce doubt before contact.
Credential types a business can show
Internal compliance vs customer-facing proof
Many credential systems are built for HR teams, onboarding, background checks, or site access. Those are useful internally, but customers rarely see them before deciding who to call.
TrustBadge is designed as a public trust layer: a clear page or badge customers can review before they contact your business.
Verification states matter
Good verification should not overclaim. A credential should be labelled clearly as verified, pending, uploaded, expired, or not supplied. That protects the business and gives customers a more honest trust signal.

- 1. Register your business. Add business details and contact information.
- 2. Verify business identity. ABN or business registration details can be checked where available.
- 3. Upload credentials. Add licences, insurance, compliance documents, or other relevant proof.
- 4. Show your TrustBadge. Share your verification page with customers, on your website, in quotes, and in your AI-readable profile.
