Introducing Verification Badges: Build Trust with Your Audience

What is Verification?

Verification on pullup is a way to confirm that an account belongs to who it claims to be. Verified accounts display a blue checkmark badge next to their name, signaling authenticity to event attendees and collaborators.

Whether you're an influencer, artist, public figure, or a company hosting events, verification helps you stand out and build trust with your audience.

Why Get Verified?

1. Build Trust

A verification badge instantly communicates authenticity. Attendees know they're buying tickets from the real you—not an impersonator or scammer.

2. Stand Out

In a sea of event hosts, the blue checkmark helps you catch attention. It's a mark of credibility that sets you apart.

3. Protect Your Brand

Verification helps protect against impersonation. When people see your verified badge, they know it's officially you.

4. Enhanced Visibility

Verified accounts may receive priority placement in search results and recommendations, helping more people discover your events.

Two Types of Verification

Notable Person

For individuals with a notable public presence:

**Influencers and creators** with established followings

**Artists and performers** who host shows and events

**Public figures** including athletes, journalists, and politicians

**Industry professionals** with notable achievements

Company / Organization

For businesses and organizations:

**Event companies** and promoters

**Venues** and hospitality businesses

**Brands** hosting experiential events

Company verification requires domain verification through DNS TXT records, ensuring only authorized representatives can claim organizational accounts.

Important Notes

Display Name Lock

Once verified, your display name is locked to what you provided in your application. This ensures consistency and authenticity across the platform. Name changes after verification require a new review process.

Maintain Your Standing

Verification can be removed if you violate our terms of service, engage in misleading behavior, or become inactive for extended periods. Keep your account in good standing to maintain your badge.

No Guarantees

Submitting an application doesn't guarantee approval. Our team reviews each request individually based on authenticity, notability, and completeness of information provided.
