What does Verified mean on a listing?

A listing with the Verified badge was listed by the Tack-o-Tack team itself. You see the badge on the listing's photo in every grid, and in the owner card on the listing page.

Two different badges

Badge on	Means
A listing	The Tack-o-Tack team listed it
A user	That person passed an identity check. See How does identity verification work?

Listings without the badge

A listing without the badge is not a worse listing. There is no negative mark on any listing or user.

Listings published by other users are not Verified, and there is no way to apply for the badge on your own listing.
