HubSpot Partner Badges: Showcase Your Expertise & Credibility

About HubSpot Partner Badges

HubSpot Partner Badges validate the skills, specialization, and verified credentials of a solutions partner organization. They're earned at the organization level and reflect something specific and substantive about what your firm brings to the table.

Solutions partner organizations can earn HubSpot Partner Badges through validation and verification of:

Experience selling to and servicing a specific segment of HubSpot customers

HubSpot Verified Security Badge

Verified Security Badges recognize partner organizations that hold active, recognized third-party security credentials. These badges help enterprise customers identify partners who meet specific security standards, an increasingly important consideration as customers evaluate partners for engagements involving sensitive data in HubSpot Smart CRM.

Verified Security Badges are awarded after HubSpot reviews evidence provided by the partner demonstrating they hold an active credential. Once awarded, the badge remains valid for 12 months, at which point HubSpot conducts a subsequent review.

_{Please note the HubSpot Verified Security Credential Holder badge is for indicative purposes only. While these badges validate that a solutions partner has shared evidence of specific security credentials with HubSpot, they do not guarantee the ongoing security capabilities or practices of the partner. Customers are strongly advised to conduct their own due diligence and thoroughly assess the security capabilities of any solutions partner before engaging them. HubSpot does not assume any responsibility or liability for the security practices of its partners.}
