Request verification with a store logo, valid contact info and acceptance of the store policy; once approved your storefront shows a trust badge and gets priority in search.
Buyers hesitate to pay an unknown store.
5 steps, in this order. Each one is explained in the step-by-step guide.
On Pludor, go to Settings > Verification, make sure you have a store logo and valid contact email and phone, tick the store policy box, and press Request Verification. Your storefront then shows a trust badge and gets priority in search once approved. The review takes 1-2 business days.
It's a visible trust signal that tells buyers a store has been reviewed and has valid contact details. It addresses the core problem that buyers hesitate to pay an unknown store, so it's especially useful for new stores or those selling higher-value items. Pludor's version also boosts your store in search results.
On Pludor it's available on every plan, including the Free plan, with a free amount every month — you only pay for what you use beyond that, at 1 credit = 1 cent. There's no separate charge just to request the badge. You need a Pludor store, which is free to create.
Pludor reviews verification requests in 1-2 business days. Make sure your logo, contact email and phone are all in place before requesting, since those are required. You'll see the trust badge on your storefront once it's approved.
You need a store logo, a valid contact email and phone, and you must accept the store policy. On Pludor, upload the logo under Settings > Branding & Visuals, check your contact info, then open Settings > Verification to accept the policy and submit the request.
A badge means the store has been reviewed and has valid contact information on file, which is a better signal than nothing — but you should still check the store's policies yourself. Look for clear refund, shipping and privacy policies before paying. Stores with published policies and verified contact details are generally safer to buy from.
Write clear refund, shipping and privacy policies that describe exactly what happens when something goes wrong. Pludor offers a free Shop Policy Generator that drafts these for you — describe your store and it produces the policies, free to try with 8 runs an hour and no account needed.
Store verification is about your storefront: a logo, valid contact info and accepting the store policy, which earns a trust badge and search priority. Identity verification (KYC) is a profile-wide ID check — tax details, then a government ID scan and selfie — that unlocks payouts and verified-seller badges. On Pludor you can do both: store verification in Settings, KYC at pludor.com/me/wallet.
No — on Pludor the Store Verification Badge is on for every store, including the Free plan. Each month includes a free amount of usage; beyond that you pay only for what you use in credits. You can create a free store at pludor.com/setup with no card needed.
Create a free store, add your first product with photos and price, connect Stripe for payouts, and share your store link on social media. Then request verification so a trust badge appears on your storefront, and publish clear refund, shipping and privacy policies. Pludor bundles all of this — free store setup, the verification badge, and a free Shop Policy Generator — in one place.
