    Verification: What We Check

    What RedSquare verifies — your screen's location, your payout account and every ad — and what it does not

    Getting Started
    3 min

    Here is everything that gets verified on RedSquare, who checks it, and why.

    Your Account

    For Everyone

    • You sign up with your email and a password, or with a sign-in option shown on the sign-up page
    • RedSquare doesn't ask for ID, and there are no account levels or badges to unlock
    • If the sign-up page asks you to confirm your email, use the link we send. If the link has expired, the page it opens lets you ask for a new one

    Verification Steps

    Your Screen's Location (Screen Owners)

    1. Your screen is shown to advertisers only once its location is confirmed: someone stood at the screen, within 50 m of its map pin
    2. It usually happens while you add the screen, when you allow the location prompt
    3. If it didn't, run it from the screen's Location & verification settings — see Verifying your screen
    4. A confirmed screen shows advertisers a green Verified location badge

    Your Payout Account (Screen Owners)

    Needed only for a screen that charges:

    1. Connect PayPal or Stripe on the Get paid step (/onboard?step=payouts)
    2. Your payout provider — not RedSquare — checks who you are: your legal name, your bank account, and sometimes an ID document or tax details. You give those to them, not to us
    3. Advertisers can book a paid screen once its payout account is connected

    Every Ad (Advertisers)

    1. Every ad is reviewed before it can be booked, when you upload it on the first step of booking
    2. A rejected ad shows the reason, so you can fix it and upload it again
    3. The category you choose for the ad is checked against each screen's house rules
