Our 5-Step Nursery
Verification Program
Buying plants online can be risky. That's why every seller carrying our verification badge undergoes rigorous verification to guarantee authenticity, health, and secure deliveries.
1. GST & Identity Verification
We verify the nursery's government registration documents, matching active GST numbers, tax filings, and company ownership credentials to prevent identity fraud and ensure stable commercial transactions.
2. Physical Location Audit
Our regional agents or mapping systems physically confirm the nursery's geographical location, acreage, and inventory scale. We cross-verify that the nursery is not a virtual reseller.
3. Reputation & Review Audit
We compile and sync verified Google Business Profile ratings and real customer reviews. This feedback loop ensures poor performers are weeded out and high-quality sellers are rewarded.
4. Logistics & Delivery Guarantee
We check shipping and packaging procedures to ensure plants are wrapped correctly to survive transit. We only certify sellers who have a proven method of delivering fresh plants without stress.
5. Agri-Licensing & Quality Check
We review official certifications, state agriculture department nursery licenses, and tissue culture credentials to ensure that saplings are pathogen-free, true-to-type, and legally compliant.
The PlantTrade Authenticity Promise
If any nursery verified on PlantTrade fails to deliver what was promised, or provides incorrect botanical varieties, our dedicated support team intervenes immediately to resolve disputes, secure refunds, or arrange replacements.
