How to score a provider

Mark each check as pass, fail or not verified. Do not convert “not verified” into a pass. A provider with fewer claims but clearer evidence may be the safer shortlist choice.

Decision rule

Any failure involving payment clarity, app safety or account credentials should pause the purchase until the issue is resolved in writing.
