Trust is essential in the relationship between consumers and brands.
That's why we've introduced a certificate of trust, issued only to products that have passed our rigorous, uniform tests. Each evaluation is carried out according to strict protocols that guarantee objectivity and accuracy, enabling consumers to make informed choices.
Our certificate attests not only to the quality of our products, but also to our commitment to transparency. By choosing products bearing our certificate, consumers can rest assured that they are investing in items that have been thoroughly tested and designed to meet their expectations. We're here to protect consumers and strengthen their trust in brands, because a worry-free shopping experience starts with a reliable review.
We test every product on our premises. This means that we first gather information from the Internet. Then we examine the product closely, test it and check the accuracy of the features promoted on the merchant's website. The final score is made up of a wide variety of categories such as packaging, design, quality and value for money. The exact test catalog is shown below.

Frequently asked questions
For consumers
The French SaferBuy Institute carries out in-depth tests and certifies products and services. These services are entirely free of charge for the end user.
Our detailed test reports are available at any time on our website. Consumers can verify the authenticity and validity of our seals by using our license search tool verified on our website (enter the brand's license number and observe the tests performed).
The institute is 100% self-financed, and is therefore totally independent of retailers and manufacturers. Funding is provided by a license fee paid in advance of the test. This guarantees impartial evaluation. We receive no commission on brand sales.
Our tests are rigorously carried out directly on our premises according to standardized protocols. This ensures that our evaluations are not based on online information, but on a detailed and specific examination of product characteristics. Each product is evaluated on specific criteria, such as quality, safety, durability, performance, the veracity of marketing arguments used in advertisements and on product pages, and many other criteria detailed in our “test procedure” section. This guarantees consistent, reliable results, whatever the product tested.
