Trust & Safety

How seller rankings work

Rankings combine our Trust Score™, review quality, and review weighting. Sponsored placements never modify a lab's trust score.

What drives ranking position

  • Trust Score (six weighted factors — see below)
  • Weighted average rating from verified, registered, and guest reviews
  • Review volume + recency
  • Profile completeness and external presence

What does NOT affect ranking

Paying for the Premium tier does not change a lab's Trust Score or ranking position. Premium placements are always clearly labelled Sponsored.
