What Trust Scores tell you

Every site listed on Tested.gg has a Trust Score - a number from 0 to 100, recalculated daily. The score combines multiple data points: user review ratings, security practices (SSL, two-factor authentication, domain age), transparency signals (public company info, clear terms of service), and traffic data.

A higher Trust Score means the site has stronger signals across all of these factors. It does not mean the site is perfect or that you won't have issues. It means the available data points in a more trustworthy direction.

Trust Scores are relative. A score of 80 means the site performs better than most sites in its category. A score below 50 means multiple data points are weak or missing.

How to use filters

Directory pages let you filter sites by category, game, and other criteria. Filters narrow down your options when you already know what you need.

Category filters show sites that operate in a specific marketplace type - trading, currency, boosting, accounts, keys, or rewards. A site can appear in multiple categories if it offers more than one type of service.

Game filters narrow results to sites that support a specific game. Not all categories have game filters - rewards and keys platforms typically serve all games.

Sort options let you order results by Trust Score, number of reviews, or other ranking factors. The default sort is by Trust Score, highest first.

Reading user reviews

User reviews on Tested.gg come from accounts verified through Steam or Discord. This doesn't make every review accurate, but it raises the bar above anonymous review platforms.

When reading reviews, look for patterns rather than individual opinions. A single negative review among dozens of positive ones may be an outlier. Five reviews mentioning the same issue - slow withdrawals, unresponsive support - is a pattern worth paying attention to.

Check review dates. A site that had problems a year ago may have improved. A site with recent complaints about the same issue has not.

What matters by service type

Different services have different decision factors:

Trading: Fee structures vary widely. The final checkout price after fees is the true cost - listed prices alone can be misleading.

Currency: Delivery speed ranges from minutes to hours. Reviews often mention delivery times for specific games and order sizes.

Boosting: Piloted boosting requires sharing account credentials. Self-play does not. The Trust Score's security factor reflects which protections a site offers.

Keys: Stock availability fluctuates. Prices on grey market platforms vary by seller, not just by platform.

Accounts: Account recovery by the original owner is the primary risk. Marketplace warranty policies and seller verification vary.
