MODULE 3.3

Certification

Why certified businesses pay better commissions and convert higher.

Course · Businesses

On top of KYB, some businesses earn a Dharte Certification — a deeper review that promoters can point to with high-trust clients.

What certification reviews

Goes beyond KYB. The Dharte team observes the business in action — sits a session, attends a class, reviews multiple customer journeys, audits sustainability claims. Most certifications take 30–90 days.

Why promoters care

Certified businesses have a visible badge in the directory, pay higher commissions in most categories, and get priority slots in events. Promoters can filter the directory for certified-only when picking who to refer.

Nominating a business

Active promoters can nominate businesses they work with for certification. The Dharte team uses promoter feedback as part of the review process.

Reflection. Which business would you nominate today if you could? What would you tell the Dharte team about why?
Exercise. Find one certified business in the directory and one non-certified. Note the difference in how each presents itself.
