Embeddable Beacon Score badges.

Card (default) — 320 × 140

The standard newsroom-card variant. Brand name, full legal name, website URL on the left; Beacon Score and band on the right; verify-URL strip at the bottom. Suitable for in-line use on a site’s “About us” or “Regulatory” page.

Medal seal — 240 × 320 vertical

A vertical medal-style badge with a circular medallion, four small rosette stars at cardinal points, the entity’s Beacon Score in the centre, and a ribbon banner displaying the brand name below. The band (CLEAN, RESTRICTED, LICENCE LOST, etc.) sits inside the medallion in the band colour; the ribbon picks up the same accent. Designed to be embeddable like an award seal — what a regulated broker may already display elsewhere on its site.

Like all our badges, this is editorial attestation, not a promotional award. The copy is factual; the rendering evokes the prize format brokers and their audiences recognise from industry awards, but The Beacon doesn’t give “Broker of the Year” trophies.

Display — 480 × 220 with band stamp + QR

The display variant. Larger brand block, a circular band-coloured seal that reads as a notary-style stamp (“CLEAN”, “MATERIAL”, “RESTRICTED”, etc.), and a QR code in the bottom strip that resolves to the dossier on beacon.enon.md. Suitable for marketing collateral, sidebar slots, or where the badge needs to stand on its own.

Text attestation — for footers

A single-line text attestation suitable for site footers or T&C pages. Not an image — just text with a link. The same content is also available at the badge URL with ?variant=textas plain text, if you’d rather pull the line server-side.

Click behaviour

Wrapping the SVG with an <a href="https://beacon.enon.md/entities/<slug>"> makes the badge clickable. Visitors land on the firm’s dossier on The Beacon, where the score composition, the licence list, the event timeline, and the Editorial Practices breakdown are visible. We recommend the link open in a new tab.

The display (large) variant also encodes the same URL into the QR code in the bottom strip, so the badge is verifiable from printed media and screenshots without relying on the hyperlink being live.

Permitted use

• Embedding any variant on the firm’s own website, linked to its dossier page on The Beacon.
• Citing the badge in marketing copy as “Listed with a Beacon Score of [X] by The Beacon” or similar factual phrasing, with a current date.
• Referencing the badge in regulatory disclosures where third-party recognition is relevant (subject to the firm’s own regulator’s rules on comparative claims).

What firms may not do

• Represent the badge as a regulatory authorisation, endorsement of any specific product, or guarantee of financial soundness.
• Modify any badge image, remove the date stamp, alter the score, or display a historical score as if current.
• Display any badge after eligibility has been revoked. The SVG itself updates when the firm’s band moves into a revoked or never-authorised state — but firms must also remove marketing copy that quoted a now-stale score.
• Combine the badge with adjacent marketing that implies The Beacon recommends a specific product, trade or investment strategy. The Beacon Score is institution-level, not product-level.
