Every supplier on PartsBid is manually verified by our team within 1–2 business days. Verification includes Commercial Registration (CR) validation, business legitimacy review, and category confirmation. The platform uses TLS 1.3 encryption, bcrypt password hashing, email OTP two-factor authentication, and complies with the Saudi Arabia PDPL and UAE data protection regulations.
A rigorous 4-step process ensures only legitimate businesses operate on PartsBid.
Every supplier application is reviewed by our team within 1-2 business days. We check company details, contact information, and declared categories.
We verify the supplier's Commercial Registration (CR) number with the relevant government authority to confirm business legitimacy.
When you see the green verified badge on a supplier profile, it means their Commercial Registration has been validated, their business operations have been confirmed, and they have been manually approved by our team. We do not use automated verification — every supplier is reviewed by a human.
Security, transparency, and compliance are embedded in every feature.
