The score buyers can check
Passmark turns your compliance evidence into one honest 0–100 trust benchmark — with a public methodology, so a buyer knows exactly what it means.
What goes into your score
How much of your market’s legal requirement checklist you meet — the biggest driver, straight from your compliance checks and vault.
Recognised certifications on file (Rainforest Alliance, Fairtrade, organic, GlobalG.A.P., FSC, RSPO and more) that buyers and regulators look for.
Evidence you can trace your product back to farm/plot — geolocation, chain-of-custody, cooperative records.
How far your evidence has been checked: self-declared → AI-checked → Passmark-verified (human document review).
Consistency over time — how long you’ve maintained a profile and kept documents current.
From Provisional to Passmark Verified
Provisional
0–39
Getting started — a profile exists but little evidence yet.
Developing
40–64
Real progress: core documents and checks in place.
Trusted
65–84
A strong, well-evidenced compliance position buyers can rely on.
Passmark Verified
85–100
The top band — requires both a high score AND human verification of your organisation. This is what "verified" actually means here.
How scoring works
What is a Passmark Score?
A single 0–100 trust benchmark built from your real compliance evidence across five weighted pillars: regulatory readiness (40), certifications (20), traceability (15), verification (15) and track record (10).
What does “Passmark Verified” mean?
It’s the top band and is deliberately hard to reach: it needs a composite score of 85+ AND human verification of your organisation and documents. A high score alone is not enough — so the badge means something to a buyer.
How do I raise my score?
Run compliance checks for your lanes, upload your certificates to the Vault (they’re matched to requirements automatically), keep documents current, and request verification once your evidence is strong.
Can buyers see my score?
Yes — that’s the point. Your score lives on a shareable public profile with a live badge you can put in quotes, on WhatsApp, and on marketplace listings.
