Frequently Asked Questions

What is MerchantGuard Verified?

A 3-level verification system that proves your compliance to PSPs and ISOs. Profile Verified is a compliance assessment, Processing Verified verifies your processing data, and On-Chain Attested creates an on-chain attestation.

Is it free?

Profile Verified and Processing Verified are completely free. On-Chain Attested minting is gasless (we sponsor the transaction). You only pay if you want premium features like priority placement or custom branding.

How does Stripe OAuth work?

We use read-only OAuth scope to fetch your transaction data, disputes, and chargeback rates. We never store your access tokens. Data stays in Stripe's secure environment. We only store the calculated metrics (GuardScore, VAMP ratio, etc.).

What if I don't use Stripe?

You can upload CSV processing statements from 12+ PSPs including PayPal, Square, Shopify, Checkout.com, Braintree, and more. Our system auto-detects the processor format.

Do I need crypto knowledge for On-Chain Attested?

No. We handle the NFT minting with gasless transactions. If you don't have a wallet, we'll help you create a Coinbase Smart Wallet in seconds. It's as easy as signing up for an email account.
