Jewellery Council of South Africa

Show your customers they're in safe hands.

Accredited members of the Jewellery Council of South Africa can display a digital accreditation badge on their website and email signature — a simple, visible signal of trust that links straight back to the Council.

For customers

When you see the Jewellery Council badge on a website or in an email, you can click it to confirm that the business is officially accredited and listed in the Council directory.

Designed to match your brand

Every business presents its brand differently, so the badge comes in two themes:

  • Light badge — for darker websites and layouts.
  • Dark badge — for light backgrounds and clean white designs.

Inside the member portal, you can preview both versions, test them on light and dark backgrounds, and choose a size that sits comfortably with your brand.
