Trust
Standard acts as a third-party verification layer
Our goal is to help buyers compare sellers before buying, understand payment risk, and reduce scams using clear, public trust signals.
Approved by Standard
A Verified Seller badge means the seller has been reviewed and approved by our team. It is not automatic, paid-only, or self-assigned.
Official seller tag
The Provider / Developer tag is reserved for sellers who can show they are the official owner, developer, or provider of a listed product.
Real customer feedback
Reviews are designed to come from real customers. Sellers cannot directly manipulate, edit, or remove reviews from their products.

How Standard ranks products

How seller verification works
We review public seller information, marketplace history, and profile consistency before assigning verification.
Sellers who request the Provider / Developer tag must submit proof such as website, Discord, Telegram, or other ownership signals.
Payment methods, refund policies, and high-risk payment profiles can be reviewed by the Standard team.
Verification is not permanent. It can be removed if a seller misleads users, manipulates reviews, or violates Standard rules.
Review integrity rules
What Standard does and does not guarantee
Standard helps buyers compare sellers, payment methods, reviews, and trust signals. We do not directly sell third-party products and we do not guarantee every transaction. Buyers should still review seller status, payment method risk, delivery details, refund policy, and public trust signals before purchasing.
