In support of our continued efforts to drive equity in programmatic advertising, Mediavine has partnered with Sertify to help publishers achieve official accreditation.

If you are opted into Uplift and have self-identified as one or more of the available options, you can now also take additional steps with Sertify to verify your business. The goal is to help to remove barriers that limit publishers’ opportunity to benefit from equity advertising budgets. This service is available at no cost to you, as a publisher.

1. Enable Uplift Mediavine in your Mediavine Dashboard.

2. Be sure that you have completed the About You section, and have selected one of the available options as it pertains to you and your business.

3. Navigate to Mediavine X Sertify and create your account by clicking on the Get Sertify button located at the bottom and top right of the page.

4. Then you’ll need to confirm your Ownership, Identity, and Application.

Applying to have your business ‘Sertified’ takes just a few minutes, and status will be determined within a few days. Sertify will email you with additional details and approval status.

Once approved your Mediavine dashboard(s) will display a Sertify banner located at the top. Please allow a few days for your dashboard(s) to display the Sertify status banner.

If you have been approved and the banner does not appear, please contact publishers@mediavine.com for assistance.

Any changes needed to the information submitted during your application process will need to be processed through the Sertify team. Please reach out to them to perform any changes to the submitted information.
