RV Help currently has three distinct levels of verification with an expectation to add a fourth before long. Verification levels are a way that the platform can ensure we're providing good, up to date information to end users.
Current Verification Levels
1. None
This is the default verification level for all new service providers who have not claimed their listing. At this level, providers have started the process or have been imported in but haven't yet completed their basic profile information.
Characteristics:
Initial listing creation
Basic account setup
Limited visibility in search results
No verification badge
2. Profile Complete
This is the initial verification level when a service provider completes their basic profile information. While this represents the first step in our verification process, it does not include any additional verification steps.
Requirements:
Complete basic profile information
Set up business details
Define service area
Add pricing information (for technicians)
3. RV Help Verified
This is our standard verification level for established service providers. RV Help Verified members have undergone our verification process and met specific criteria.
Requirements:
Complete profile information
Valid RVTAA/NRVIA membership
Verified contact information (email and phone)
In-person verification completed (this is handled automatically via the associations in person training)
Benefits:
Increased visibility in search results
