Certified is a watch certification service that includes (among other things) the certification of the authenticity of the watch by a verified watchmaker. Certified was created to make the sale of luxury watches faster and easier, and to increase buyer confidence on Chrono24.

Along with the four badges you're already familiar with, you can now earn a fifth: the Trusted Seller badge. The Trusted Seller badge is another way to promote your excellent work on Chrono24 and win over potential buyers. Read this article to learn more about how to earn the Trusted Seller badge.

Since 2019, the German Packaging Act (VerpackG) requires online retailers to assume responsibility for the life cycle of their packaging. Since July 2022, Chrono24, as a marketplace operator, must check whether certain requirements are being met.

With our new badges, potential buyers can more easily compare dealers based on their performance. They also help you stand out from competitors and increase your chances of making a sale.

We've expanded our Dealer Program: We reward you for shipping items on time and excellent overall performance, and charge additional fees for orders shipped late or cancelled after payment is received for reasons attributable to the seller.

Beginning in February, orders for items with the status "Item in stock" will be accepted automatically. Furthermore, our new penalty fee for orders canceled by the seller after payment also goes into effect.

As of January 1, 2023, we are obligated to submit information about seller transactions on our platform to the German Federal Central Tax Office (BZSt). For this purpose, we need further information from you about your company.

The settings "Inventory" and "Availability" are being combined into "Handling time." Handling time is the time you need to hand the item over to a delivery service. After a transition period, handling time will replace the existing availability settings.

We're optimizing the way potential buyers reserve watches via price suggestions. With this update, a watch will only be reserved after a customer has committed to buying it by placing an order. This will give you more flexibility and help avoid unnecessary cancelations.
