Email Mark Certificates
Email Mark certificates make your brand seen and trusted in inboxes by displaying verified brand logo in supported email inboxes such as Gmail, Yahoo Mail, and Apple Mail. They prove sender authenticity and prevent domain impersonation to strengthen trust in marketing and transactional emails.
What is an Email Mark Certificate?
An Email Mark Certificate is a digital certificate that allows organizations to display the verified brand logo on supported email clients. This certificate works with BIMI and DMARC authentication to confirm the sender’s identity. It visually indicates that the message has come from a legitimate domain.
Email mark certificates are issued by a trusted Certificate Authority (CA) after completing a verification process. There are two types of mark certificates:
- Verified Mark Certificate (VMC) – requires a registered trademark and can display a verified check mark in supported inboxes.
- Common Mark Certificate (CMC) – allows brand logo display without requiring a registered trademark.
Official Verified Blue Tick
Verified Mark Certificate
A VMC certificate implemented on your domain allows your trademarked VMC logo to appear in supported email clients, such as Gmail, Apple Mail, etc. This helps improve email engagement and protection against impersonation or spoofing attacks. Any business can use VMCs to prove their brand’s identity in inboxes.
Common Mark Certificate
A CMC certificate implemented in your domain allows your verified brand logo to display in Gmail and Yahoo. Unlike VMC, it verifies the brand logo for use in BIMI, even if it’s not trademarked. Apart from preventing domain spoofing and improving email performance, a CMC certificate is more cost-efficient and is issued faster.
Email Spoofing is on the Rise. Protect Your Brand Identity.
The Problem – Spoofed Emails
Every day, cybercriminals send thousands of emails impersonating trusted brands. Without email logo verification, your brand is exposed to phishing attacks. Your domain reputation and customer trust are at stake.
The Cost – Lost Trust
Email remains one of the most common initial attack vectors in cyber incidents. It allows attackers to impersonate trusted brands and deceive customers. Result? Businesses lose trillions of dollars globally every year.
The Solution – BIMI Certificate
Email Mark certificates signal your email’s authenticity in inboxes through BIMI logos. Backed by SPF, DKIM and DMARC, they reduce impersonation risks. This results in improved deliverability and brand reputation.
