Integrate Trust Mark

Integrating the CHECK Trust Mark

Section titled “Integrating the CHECK Trust Mark”

This guide explains how to integrate the CHECK EVI (Embedded Verification Interface) trust mark into your web shop to display verifiable organizational data and build customer confidence.

Motivation

Section titled “Motivation”

New visitors to web shops are often concerned with understanding whether they can trust the visited shop. Traditional trust indicators like SSL certificates or generic trust badges provide limited information about the actual organization behind the website.

Decentralized Identity and Verifiable Credentials transform the way trust can be conveyed by:

  • Linking a web shop directly to a verified organizational identity
  • Sharing cryptographically verifiable claims about the organization
  • Enabling customers to independently verify authenticity without relying on third parties

CHECK’s EVI widget enables retailers to embed a dynamic trust mark in their web shops that displays real-time verifiable data alongside the web shop’s offers, providing transparency and building customer confidence through independent verification.

Prerequisites

Section titled “Prerequisites”

Before integrating the trust mark, ensure that you have:

  1. Obtained your organization’s decentralized identifier and credentials
  2. Properly shared and linked your credentials to your web shop domain
