The Google Trusted Store badge is awarded to e-commerce sites that demonstrate a track record of on-time shipping and excellent customer service. When visiting a qualifying store, shoppers can hover over the Google Trusted Store badge and see metrics on the store’s shipping and customer service performance.

Possibly a way to collect more data about the stores (which in a way could be used to launch a competitor in the business in latter days).

I used to have one of those badges 8 years ago, one I made myself.

I can only see this as a joke. Does anybody think this will ever catch up?
