Badge Integration
How to display the CAIRL trust badge on your platform, including sizes, placement rules, and certification levels.
Badge Integration
The CAIRL trust badge is a contextual trust signal that tells users your platform is integrated with CAIRL identity verification. It is not a promotional logo.
Badge overview
The trust badge is a horizontal Assurance Rail lockup containing the canonical CAIRL compact mark, "CAIRL VERIFIED" text, and a trailing success check inside a rounded capsule.
Two colorways are available:
| Background | Treatment |
|---|---|
| Light | Foundation Blue rail, black mark on white, Trust Blue VERIFIED accent |
| Dark | Trust Blue rail, white mark on Foundation Blue, white text |
Sizes
Choose the size appropriate to your placement context.
| Size | Dimensions | Use case |
|---|---|---|
| Large | 200 x 60 px | Verification entry points, dedicated trust sections |
| Medium | 160 x 48 px | Checkout flows, signup forms, footers |
| Icon | 120px wide or below | Space-constrained contexts (compact mark only) |
Placement rules
The badge should appear where users encounter CAIRL verification, not elsewhere.
Recommended placements
- Verification entry point — directly adjacent to the button that initiates verification (Large)
- Checkout or signup — near the verification step in your flow (Medium)
- Footer — in the trust or security section of your page footer (Medium)
Placement requirements
- The badge must appear within the same visual group as the verification action
- The badge must link to cairl.app
- The badge must not be separated from the verification CTA by unrelated content
Prohibited placements
- Advertising or promotional banners
- Pages with no CAIRL verification touchpoint
- Product listing pages where CAIRL is not involved
- As a floating, fixed, or decorative element
Implementation
The official badge exports are founder-approved for production and public use. Use the canonical hosted SVG from the production marketing origin and keep the badge adjacent to the verification action. Replace blue with white for dark backgrounds.
