Why ISIS Accreditation?
ISIS-Accredited retailers now account for approximately two thirds of all UK online shopping.
Consumers can shop online with confidence wherever they see the ISIS logo because it certifies that the retailer has:
• registered with the ISIS programme and undertaken to trade in a manner that is LEGAL, DECENT, HONEST, TRUTHFUL AND FAIR;
• had its web site and service reviewed and monitored by
IMRG;
• had its Business, VAT and Data Protection registrations checked by
ISIS.
Customer Confidence
One of the main reasons that consumers cite as the reason for not shopping online, is a lack of awareness of the retailer. Whilst the established online traders and high street retailers have solid brand exposure to comfort the customer, smaller e-Retailer's do not. Use of the ISIS Mark confirms your identity and will indicate to those with whom you are conducting business that you are using ISIS's standards. The ISIS Mark has built up a great reputation over many years and as a result, ISIS-accredited merchants benefit from the reputation for reliability, security and trustworthiness engendered by the ISIS Mark. Customers purchasing goods and services branded under the ISIS Mark can do so with confidence, knowing that they do so from ISIS-accredited merchants.

The VeriSign Secured Seal and Extended Validation SSL
As online shoppers become more aware of identity theft and other threats, they make purchase decisions based on whether they trust the Web site to be safe. Including a trust mark on your Web site alerts your customers that your site is secure, which can improve consumer confidence and decrease shopping basket abandonment. As the most trusted security mark on the Internet, the VeriSign Secured Seal is the best choice for businesses to communicate online transaction security to customers.
The VeriSign Secured Seal and VeriSign
® Extended Validation SSL Certificates deliver additional features that consumers demand: authentication and verification. When a consumer clicks on the seal, security information about that site is displayed. When shoppers visit a Web site secured with an Extended Validation SSL Certificate, the latest browsers trigger the address bar to turn green and show a number of other visual cues to demonstrate the authenticity of that website. Choosing the right website security can make it easier for people to shop with confidence.
The IMRG protects its website visitors with industry leading Extended Validation SSL encryption technology from VeriSign. Ensure your website is also covered by a VeriSign EV SSL certificate and display the VeriSign Secured Seal to maximise consumer confidence by visiting:
