The blue check that
means something.
Anyone can put a checkmark on a profile. The Wave Certified blue check is earned — a real background check and a verified identity behind it — and it travels with you across every gig: one credential you can hand to any client, platform, or employer. You hold it. You choose who sees it.

A credential, not a job. Certification guarantees no work with Wave or any other company — it proves you cleared the check, and the rest is yours.

Three things behind every blue check.
Vetted
Every credential holder clears a full background check with FCRA-compliant processing and renewal every 12 months.
Named
The blue check is tied to a real, identity-verified person. You know who's showing up before they arrive.
Verifiable
Anyone you share your badge with can verify it in public. Scan the QR, read the badge, see the status.
Anyone can check it. In seconds.
Share your badge link or QR and anyone can confirm it in public — no login, no PII. They see whether the credential is authentic and current, and nothing else.
This credential is authentic and current.

A public register of certified partners.
Every active credential is searchable and public. Each entry is a live badge — no PII beyond a first name and last initial.
You hold the credential. You choose who sees it.
Wave never sends your background report — or anything in it — to employers or platforms. Your badge shows certification status and dates, nothing more. Verification only happens when you share it.
Share your badge
Put your verify link or QR on your profile, your rate card, your gig-app bio — anywhere a client wonders whether to trust you.
They see status — never your report
Public view, no PII: whether the credential is active, when it expires, and what it covers. Background report contents stay sealed inside the certification pipeline.
Trusted because we stand behind it
If a Wave Certified credential is compromised, we issue an incident notice within 24 hours and suspend the badge.
Hold it. Share it.
Your credential lives in one place: share it by link or QR, watch where it gets checked, and let it renew itself.
wavecertified.ai/verify/wc_a71c92e0Each time someone opens your public badge, it counts here. Your report contents are never shown — only that the credential is active.
Get certified.
Enrollment is two minutes. The background check runs in 3–5 business days. Your blue check goes live the moment results clear — $199/year, background check included.
