- Certified models can carry a higher price tag than similar uncertified models. The majority of our customers have indicated they would prefer to buy a certified model and would pay more for it.
- You’ll have fewer returns because buyers can be sure the model will work in a particular application.
- Certified models get a boost in Search results.
How It Works
- You submit a model for CheckMate through the Publisher.
- A TurboSquid inspector looks at the product, both the Product Preview and the 3D model itself.
- If the product passes, it gets the badge and other benefits.
