If your application is approved, you must agree to the VN’s terms. You must pay the fee (also called Accreditation Dues). Remember, when you pay the fee you are not paying for a rating.

Can Online Businesses Get VN Accredited?

Yes. Online businesses can apply for and obtain accreditation. You might wonder why bother, but actually the reason is simple. Online trust is more important than ever.

How Do I Find Out if a Business is VN Accredited?

There are two ways. First, look for a dynamic VN Accredited Business Seal on the company’s website. The dynamic Seal is an interactive software version of the VN logo enabling consumers to check out a business in a click.

Second, you can also go to the www.vanicomnext.com website, and search for the business. The business profile will say whether the business has accreditation with the word of “value for money”. If you can’t find the business, check to make sure you spelled the name right. If there’s no profile there is no accreditation.

What Are the Vanicom Next Standards of Trust?

The VN accreditation Team accredited entities for ongoing adherence to eight principles called the standards of marketplace trust: build trust, advertise honestly, tell the truth, be transparent, honor promises, be responsive, guard privacy and embody integrity.

And these standards just happen to be good principles to run your business by.
