Trusted Broker badge
The badge shows the holder uses Vanguard Verify checks. It is not a guarantee of any deal.
What it means
A Trusted Broker shares Vanguard Verify with the people they trade with, using their personal invite link, and at least 5 of the friends they invited became paying members. The badge is switched on automatically when the 5th invited friend pays.
What is needed
| For the badge | 5 paying friends: people who joined with your invite link and then paid for a Vanguard Verify plan. Your account shows how many more you need. |
|---|---|
| Checks | No number of checks is needed for the badge. Free members start with 25 of the 41 checks; every 2 friends who join free with your link unlock 1 more. |
| Each paying friend | 1 free Broker-plan month for you. |
| Price | Free. The Trusted Broker badge is earned and cannot be bought. |
