How do I use the seal on my website?
To embed the security seal on your online shop or website, please use the provided embed code.
Here’s how to proceed:
- Log in to your customer account and, under “Security Seal,” click the button “Download Security Seal for Your Website.”
- Select your preferred seal size.
- Choose either German or English as the language.
- In the preview, you can see the selected seal version. The seal itself is linked to a detail page, where your customers can find more information.
- Copy the embed code using the “Copy to clipboard” button.
- Paste the embed code at the desired location on your website.
Good to know: By using the embed code, the seal will automatically update after future compliance checks—manual updates are not necessary.
I have achieved PCI DSS compliance, but the seal is not updating. What can I do?
Please make sure that you are using the official embed code for the security seal on your website. If the seal still does not update, try clearing your browser cache and reload the page.
If the seal is still not up to date, please check whether your company is still PCI compliant—i.e., whether your Self-Assessment Questionnaire (SAQ) and/or ASV scan are still valid.
The seal shows the wrong date. Shouldn't it display the expiry date when our PCI compliance expires?
No, the seal shows the date when you achieved PCI DSS compliance. It is a snapshot of your compliance status at that time. Tip: Click on the seal to open the detail page. There you will also find the date on which your PCI DSS compliance will expire.
- Verified on: The date when an SAQ, audit, or ASV scan was completed with a compliant status.
- Valid until: The date when PCI compliance will expire, for example because the validity of the SAQ, audit, or ASV scan ends.
Is the seal available as an image file?
The security seal is intended solely for website integration and is therefore only available as an embed code. Downloadable image files (such as PNG or JPEG) for print or advertising purposes are not provided.
