What It Means to Be Accredited
The Ultimate Seal of Trust and Credibility
Accreditation by the National Consumer Trust and Confidence Bureau (NCTCB) is more than just a badge—it is a distinction of excellence that proves your business upholds the highest standards of trust, ethics, and service quality. Unlike other accreditation services that can be purchased with a simple fee, our certification is earned through a rigorous evaluation process.
When a business is Trust Certified by us, it demonstrates a commitment to customer satisfaction, ethical business practices, and transparency. This elite recognition sets you apart from competitors and builds lasting consumer confidence in your brand.
The Benefits of Being Accredited by NCTCB

How We Compare to Other Accreditation Services
Beyond the Pay-to-Play Model
Many accreditation organizations, such as the Better Business Bureau (BBB), primarily operate on a pay-to-play model. Businesses pay membership fees, and as long as they continue paying, they maintain their accreditation, regardless of actual customer satisfaction or ethical standards.
At the NCTCB, we do things differently:
| Feature | NCTCB Accreditation | BBB Accreditation |
| Earned Through Evaluation | ✅ Yes | ❌ No (Pay-to-Play) |
| Consumer Trust Badge | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes |
| Ongoing Monitoring | ✅ Yes | ❌ No |
| Exclusive “Top Trusted” Lists | ✅ Yes | ❌ No |
| Reputation-Based Ranking | ✅ Yes | ❌ No |
When you earn our Trust Certification, it’s because you truly deserve it, not because you paid for a title.
