In every industry, there are competitors selling similar products and fighting for market position. In many cases, there are differentiators that help consumers choose one product over the others. When it comes to building trust online, there are a lot of options out there. So how does Trusted Shops differentiate itself from the competition?
Many of these companies focus on reviews… and for good reason. Product and shop reviews offer shoppers social proof. Consumers can share their experiences with each other. However, there is more you can do to build trust for your online shop. So, let’s take a look at what kinds of shops can benefit most from Trusted Shops’ unique products and which of these products suit their needs.

For Shops that sell high-end or expensive products or are establishing themselves in a highly competitive industry, trust is always a huge factor for first-time visitors. Before dropping hundreds of pounds on a product, confidence in your company must be established. The same goes for new brands in any industry. In such cases, the Trusted Shops trustmark is the perfect conversion booster.
The Trusted Shops Trustmark
The Trustmark is Trusted Shops’ hallmark product. Not only is it Europe’s most recognised trustmark, it is the reason Trusted Shops came into existence in 1999.
After completing an audit, companies are awarded the Trustmark to display on their website. It is not just an empty symbol; it’s a quality seal that essentially proves that an online shop is legally sound and follows strict guidelines of transparency. It allows customers to opt in to a 30-day Buyer Protection, which covers non-delivery and non-refunds.
Although it sounds like the Trustmark and the 30-day Buyer Protection are strictly a benefit to customers, it actually helps the shops that display it as well. Through the audit, companies are guided through the process to ensure they are legally compliant according to EU (as well as local) regulations. In some cases, Trusted Shops has even helped their clients improve their terms and conditions to give themselves more protection.
All in all, this tool is great for shop owners as well as first-time customers. When a brand has instant credibility, it gives consumers the peace of mind to buy from a shop they’ve never visited before, thus increasing conversion rates for shop owners.
