Three steps turn scattered, hard-to-find signals into one score you can check before you commit to a deal.
When you look up an identity, we pull together whatever public signals exist for it: verification status, available transaction or account history, and any scam reports on file. See identity verification for what "verified" actually means.
Signals are weighted and combined into a single score. Scam reports go through a separate verification review — described in full on the report a scam page — before they're allowed to affect anyone's score, which keeps the system resistant to false or retaliatory reports.
Instead of a wall of raw data, you get a score and a plain-language summary of what's behind it, ready to check in under a minute at check a trust score.
ID, phone, and payment verification — explained on identity verification.
Account age, transaction patterns, and dispute outcomes where available.
Verified reports from scam reports, weighted by corroboration.
No score is perfect, and a limited history isn't the same as a bad one. Read what a trust score is for the full picture, and our buyer safety guide for how to use it responsibly.
