TrustLink Badges – Setup Guide

TrustLink badges let you display your verified Pearl Industry Network status anywhere you can add a script tag.

Both and Account and a Token are required in order to make the TrustLink badge work. If you don't have one, Click the button below to request one from Support.

If you don't already have an Account registered with PiN, or a Badge Token, you can get them here

What You’ll Need

  • A Pearl Industry Network membership (free or paid)
  • A TrustLink Token issued by our support team
  • Access to edit HTML/JavaScript where you want the badge to show
  • Ability to insert a script tag on your site or platform

TrustLink badges verify identity badges anywhere you can place code — creator portfolios, fan platforms, community networks, custom domains, etc.

Get your Trustlink Badge

Step 1 — Request Your Badge

  • Go to the TrustLink Badges page and click Get Your Badge.
  • Fill out the request form with your account and platform details.
  • Submit — your request goes to our support team.
  • Support reviews your Pearl Industry Network account and badge eligibility.
  • Once approved, we generate your API key and email your setup instructions.

This API key is what connects your badge to your verified data.

Step 2 — Add the Script Tag

After you receive your API key:

  1. Copy the embed script provided with your key.
  2. Paste it into your site or profile where you want the badge to appear.
  3. Enter the email address you use to login to PiN OR your PiN User ID (Not Both).

Example embed (replace TRUSTLINK_TOKEN with the one you receive):

1<!-- Step 1: Include the TrustLink Badge Widget script -->
2<script src="https://cdn.trustlink360.com/badges/badge.js" defer></script>
3

4<!-- Step 2: Add a badge container with your configuration -->
5<div class="trustlink-badge"
6	data-token="TRUSTLINK_TOKEN"
7	data-email="[email protected]"
8	data-user-id="xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
9	data-size="md"
10	data-type="creator">
11</div>

Note: Business Badges are currently experimental and are not recommended for production use at this time

When the script runs, it loads your dynamic TrustLink badge automatically.

Please Note:

If you have a strict CSP (Content Security Policy) you will need to add the following rules in order for the badges to load correctly.


Configuration Options

  • data-token (required) — Your TrustLink API bearer token from the dashboard
  • data-email or data-user-id (required) — User identifier to fetch badge data
  • data-size — Badge size: sm, md, or lg (default: md)
  • data-type — Badge type: creator or business (default: creator)
  • data-force-refresh — Set to true to bypass cache (optional)

How It Works

  • The badge script checks your verification status in real time.
  • Only verified users render a badge — no broken or placeholder elements.
  • Badges are styled to work in dark, light, and vibrant environments without conflicts.
  • Status updates automatically as your verification state changes.

For Platforms & Partners

TrustLink is built for scale. Fan sites, membership communities, and creator platforms can deploy badges across thousands of profiles with one integration. Badges load conditionally — they only render if a verified user exists — keeping your UI clean and fast.



Troubleshooting

If your badge doesn’t display:

  • Double-check the API key is correct.
  • Confirm the script tag was placed in a valid location.
  • Make sure your Pearl Industry Network account is verified.
  • If issues persist, contact support with your API key and embed location.
