How TrustScore Helps Buyers

TrustScore is UpBusiness's proprietary credibility and reliability scoring system designed to help buyers evaluate companies more confidently. Higher TrustScore generally indicates stronger credibility and trust signals.

TrustScore considers
  • Verification quality
  • Reviews and ratings
  • Responsiveness
  • Portfolio quality
  • Profile strength
  • Platform activity
  • Integrity signals
  • Buyer engagement

TrustScore should help guide decisions, not completely replace due diligence. Multiple strong signals together usually indicate stronger companies.

The strongest decisions come from evaluating
  • TrustScore
  • Case studies
  • Reviews and ratings
  • Commercial fit
  • Communication quality
  • Responsiveness
  • Industry expertise

Why Verification Matters

Verification helps improve buyer confidence by validating key business information. It helps reduce low-quality and suspicious companies on the platform.

Companies may go through
  • Business verification
  • Identity verification
  • Document verification
  • Integrity checks

How Rankings Work

Companies within each visibility tier are ranked dynamically based on overall quality and trust signals. Rankings are based on:

  • TrustScore
  • Verification quality
  • Reviews and ratings
  • Profile quality
  • Responsiveness
  • Buyer engagement
  • Platform activity
  • AI relevance matching

  • Industry
  • Project scope
  • Expected outcomes

  • Reviews and ratings
  • Communication quality
  • Responsiveness
  • Commercial fit
