Everything that keeps a trade safe, in one place.

Our whole job is to make trading with a stranger feel as safe as trading with a known local partner. Four things do that, from the first check to the final payment, and the credentials behind us.

The foundations of a safe trade

What we check, and against what

Seven checks, every one run against an authoritative source, never a form the business fills in about itself.

Business registration

Legal name, address, and active status.

Official company registry

Tax registration

Registered, with details that match.

Tax authority records

Authorised signatory

The person acting for the business.

Government ID, with consent

Bank account

In the business’s own name, so money lands in the right place.

Live account-holder check

Financial-crime screening

Re-run at every deal, in case anything changes.

Global sanctions and watch-lists

Beneficial owners

The people who ultimately own and control it.

Ownership records

Sector credentials

Any licence or certificate your goods require.

The issuing authority

What the badge can say

Fully approved, with a badge valid for three years. Full access to trade, and visible to every counterparty.

Verification did not pass, with specific reasons given. Only the affected details reopen for correction and resubmission.

For domestic India-to-India trade, the same verification carries a Verified · India badge, tuned to GST-registered businesses.

An Expired badge means the three-year validity has lapsed and needs renewal before starting new trades. Trades already in progress are not interrupted.

Verification is a hard gate: no business can trade until it is verified.

Frequently asked questions

What makes trado.world different from a directory or marketplace?

A directory lists businesses; a marketplace connects them. trado.world runs the whole trade, with verified identities, a structured lifecycle of generated documents and a full audit trail, and bank-secured payment, so nothing important happens off-platform.

How long does verification take?

The target review turnaround is typically 24 to 48 hours per submission. You are told clearly when it is under review and when it is complete.

How long does the badge last?

A Verified badge is valid for three years, with reminders before it expires. It is also re-checked if your registered business details materially change.

Why can’t the badge be faked?

Because it is not self-declared. Details are checked against government registries, tax records, and bank confirmation, and both sides are re-screened at every deal confirmation.

What happens if a check fails?

You get specific, per-item reasons and a path to correct and resubmit. Verification is a gate with a way through, not a dead end.

Who can see my identity and contact details?

Your legal name is shared only at the proforma invoice stage, and contact details only after a deal is confirmed. Staff who help run trades see masked identities; only the platform owner can reveal details, and every reveal is logged.

Can payment ever be released without checks?

No. Release requires every checkpoint to clear and an explicit administrator authorisation. There is no automatic, timer-based, or seller-triggered release path.
