Can I verify with other discount scheme cards?
Gocertify is committed to providing a secure, privacy-first verification system that ensures discounts are only given to eligible individuals in real time. While we recognise that Blue Light Cards, TOTUM Cards, UNiDAYS, and Student Beans are popular discount schemes, we do not use these for verification. Here's why:
1. We verify directly, not through third-party discount cards
Gocertify directly verifies eligibility through secure methods such as:
Work email verification
Student portal login
Document uploads
Blue Light Cards, TOTUM, UNiDAYS, and Student Beans are membership-based discount services rather than official certification.
2. Higher accuracy & up-to-date verification
Membership cards and apps can be obtained at one point in time, but they do not prove ongoing eligibility.
You may still have an active membership card, even if they are no longer eligible.
Gocertify ensures live verification, meaning:
Students must still be actively enrolled to qualify.
Key workers must be currently employed in an eligible sector.
This prevents misuse and ensures discounts reach only those who qualify.
3. Retailers choose to use Gocertify for independent verification
Many retailers partner with Gocertify because we offer a more secure, independent, and brand-controlled verification process.
Unlike discount card providers, Gocertify does not require brands to list their discounts on a third-party marketplace, ensuring full control over their customer experience.
Retailers define their own eligibility criteria and use Gocertify to confirm real-time status without relying on third-party memberships.
