Verified

What the seal means

Most of the 1,300+ listings here are researched from public sources. Some are claimed and maintained by the provider. A Verified listing is one where the provider has confirmed who they are, keeps the listing correct, and is marked that way everywhere a merchant — or the AI assistant a merchant asks — sees it.

Verified does not change where a provider ranks. It changes what a reader can trust.

What merchants and assistants see

The seal is on the profile, in every comparison and match result, on browse cards and the home page. The same fact travels with the data: the markdown twin of every profile carries a Listing status line, and the MCP server returns verified: true on the provider — so when Claude or ChatGPT reads the directory on a merchant’s behalf, it can weigh the listing accordingly.

Three things are true of a Verified listing
  1. 1

    Claimed from a company email

    The listing was claimed by someone with an address on the provider’s own domain, and we approved the claim. Free-mail claims are not approved.

  2. 2

    Identity confirmed

    Where a registry record is on file — legal entity, registration number, regulator — it sits on the profile’s compliance tab, cited to the register. Verified listings are matched to that record.

  3. 3

    Maintained by the provider

    Fees, coverage, settlement and payment methods are kept current by the company itself, not researched from public sources. Edits are logged.

What a Verified listing includes
  • The seal beside your name on your profile, in comparisons, match results and browse — and in the data AI assistants read: markdown twins, JSON-LD and the MCP server all carry the listing status. When an assistant weighs providers for a merchant, a Verified listing reads as the confirmed, provider-maintained source; an unclaimed one reads as researched from public records.
  • Merchant leads delivered with the merchant’s contact details, in the portal and by email. Unverified listings see that a lead is waiting, not who asked.
  • The complete performance breakdown: daily activity, AI-agent reads versus website visits, your rank and top-3 placements in merchant matches, leads by source.
  • MCP access for your whole organisation: the full quota of 5,000 tool calls per hour to search, compare and match against the directory from Claude or any agent.
What it does not do

It does not buy position. Browse, category and country pages order providers by how complete and current their data is, and comparisons are alphabetical. That order is never paid, by claimed or by Verified listings, and unclaimed listings stay listed. Verified is a mark on the listing, not a lever on the list.

Questions

Is claiming a listing free?

Yes, and it stays free. Claiming gives you the editor, the headline performance numbers, and lead matching. Verified is optional.

Does Verified change where a provider ranks?

No. Directory and comparison order is tier-neutral and never paid. The seal marks who maintains the listing; it does not move the listing.

Can merchants tell the difference between Verified and Claimed?

Yes — that is the point. Verified carries the violet seal everywhere; Claimed carries a quiet grey check; Unclaimed is labelled as researched from public sources. AI assistants get the same three states as data.

What happens if we cancel?

The listing stays live and stays yours. The seal comes off, leads go back to waiting, and the performance page returns to headline totals. Nothing you edited is lost.

How much is it?

€149 per month per listing excluding VAT, cancel anytime, from the provider portal. Enter your VAT number at checkout; invoices and receipts are in the Stripe billing portal. One listing, one subscription — a group with several brands pays per brand.
