How Verification Works

Trust is the foundation of digital business. At Digital Book of India, our verification process is designed to ensure that every business profile is attached to a real, legally operating entity.

Step 1: Identity Verification

Upon registering, every business owner is required to verify their personal identity. We utilize industry-standard checks including Aadhaar verification and Owner Identity Proof (e.g., PAN Card) submissions to ensure that a real person stands behind the profile.

Step 2: Business Authenticity

After identity is confirmed, the business entity itself must be authenticated. Users upload an Establishment Proof, such as a Shop License, GST Certificate, or any other government-recognized document.

Step 3: Manual Review Phase

Our dedicated trust and safety team manually reviews every document submitted. We cross-reference the details provided on the profile (address, brand name, category) against the physical documents. This robust check prevents bad actors and ensures that consumers only see legitimate businesses.

Step 4: The Verification Badge

Once a business passes these checks, they receive a 'Verified' badge on their public profile. This badge signals to consumers that the business has successfully met DBI's stringent trust criteria and can be engaged with confidence.
