How to verify your store with Zamn on the Business Platform using a freelance document

Here is how to verify your store on the Business Platform using a freelance document, in clear and easy steps, and then link the verification to your platform on Zamn.

To make online trade more trusted and its payments safer, the Ministry of Commerce asked online store owners to verify their stores through the "Business Platform" of the Saudi Business Center, instead of the "Maroof" platform.

This step comes in cooperation with the E-Commerce Council. It aims to improve verification steps and to make sure stores are linked to business bank accounts. This builds trust in online deals and reduces fraud.

The Ministry of Commerce said that online store verification is done easily on the Saudi Business Center website. To get verified, you need a valid freelance document and a business bank account in the name of the person doing the business (the store owner on Zamn).

It also said that the "Business Platform" will be the only official platform for verifying online stores in the Kingdom.
