SheerID Community Verification

Instantly verify eligibility for exclusive offers for hundreds of communities around the world, including students, teachers, and the military.

Why Verify Community Members?

One of the best ways to acquire customers is by giving an exclusive offer to a target community and verifying a customer’s eligibility for it.

When you give a gated offer to a group like students, you make them feel special, which motivates them to buy from you, again and again. Research shows that when a consumer community receives an exclusive offer, 67% of its members would use it to try a new brand, and 70% would be more loyal to that brand.

This exchange with consumers is called identity marketing, and you can use it to acquire hundreds of communities across the world.

Create Highly Secure and Appealing Offers

Discount abuse can be as high as 35%. Digital verification ensures only eligible customers can redeem your offer, which prevents revenue leakage and increases your margin. And when customers see your offer is truly exclusive, it increases the offer’s value and underscores your intent to launch a genuine relationship with them.
