Why Use Mark Certificates? Compare VMC and CMC
With the ongoing advancements of digital email communications, it has become crucial for the latter to use authentication solutions such as DMARC and BIMI. An important task of Mark Certificates in this process is to improve brand recognition and prevent users from phishing. Looking at the logo name, organizations can attain credibility, enhance the brand image, and protect consumers from a fake email or phishing emails.
Purchasing VMC or CMC brings abilities to organizations in providing safer and more reliable interactions with the target community. There are three main differences between VMCs and CMCs:
- Trademark requirements: In the case of VMCs, the trademark needs to be registered for the logo. In the case of CMCs, the logo can be used without trademark registration, provided there is public use of such a logo for 12 months or more.
- Verified Checkmark: VMCs display a blue checkmark next to the logo in Gmail, signifying much higher verification. CMCs will only display the logo.
- Accessibility: Both require an enforced DMARC policy, but CMCs eliminate the trademark requirement, hence it is accessible to even startups and small businesses.
For companies with a registered trademark, VMC gives credibility by virtue of Gmail's blue checkmark. On the contrary, CMCs provide a simpler and cost-effective route for non-trademark businesses to use BIMI's brand and security benefits.
