Alexandre Emeriau Posted December 18, 2014 at 12:00 AM Share Posted December 18, 2014 at 12:00 AM One of the challenges with claiming a listing is the need for an email address to be a part of the listing. Scraping email addresses can be a challenge. Im proposing that an option be available that would allow claiming by the processing of a small charge against a credit card. This validates the claiming in a number of ways. It requires a billing address and a name. It also provides tracking in case of fraud. Finally, it adds a small revenue sources and makes it easier to upsell a package. This particular system is being used by the United States Post Office to validate a persons request to change addresses for mail. Also the option to claim based on an email verification; email domain having to be the same as the domain mentioned for the listing. Link to comment
