BuyerProtection shows whether a store has public TrustedSite proof and whether BuyerProtection Guaranteed status is active before you pay.

What should I check beyond an ABN?

Use the ABN as one clue, then check business identity, official domain, support, delivery and refund proof, and the current guarantee status.

What should I do when a store says Verified but BuyerProtection says Unknown?

Treat Unknown as a neutral result and ask the store for its public TrustedSite proof before relying on the claim.

A result cannot float free from the case events that created it.

Institution-owned

The packet carries evidence, not the institution’s decision.

Chargeback, reimbursement and guarantee decisions stay with their authorised owner.

Measured
