The Sitewide Trustmark is shown in the bottom left or right-hand corner on all pages of your site. New visitors can shop with confidence because they know your site has been verified by a trusted third party.
The Product Page Trustmark is shown on each product page, typically under the add to cart button. Showing trustmarks before checkout reinforces that you are a trusted merchant, encouraging the shopper to add products to their cart.
