Bidville Verified Seller Program

Bidville has been developing innovative solutions to keep our community safe. The VIP program is the first to be released. We are confident that this program, along with others that will be introduced soon, will make us pioneers of eCommerce safety.

VIP stands for Verification of Identity by Phone. The VIP Program was designed to help verify that a member is actually who they say they are. Unfortunately, it is very easy for online 'scammers' to falsify their identity. This program is a simple but effective tool in helping to verify a person's identity.

The VIP Program is currently open to all registered members from the USA and Canada with a credit card or checking account on file with Bidville.

The VIP Program is in addition to another innovative program Bidville is pioneering - the SAFE (Sellers Against Fraudulent E-Commerce) Program, which we discussed in a previous post.

The SAFE Program allows sellers to set their own security level on their auctions. Combine this with the soon to be released "Checkout" system and a Bidder VIP Program, and sellers will soon be rid of fraudulent bidders. Only here at Bidville.

More next time!
