Verified organisations

Slack Connect is a secure way to collaborate across companies – right in Slack. Unlike email, which leaves your team at risk of spam and phishing, Slack Connect and verified organisations help ensure that your team is working with trusted partners.


What verification looks like

When Slack verifies an organisation, a purple tick mark will appear next to an organisation’s name. You’ll see this tick when you add someone from a verified organisation to a channel in your Slack workspace, or when you accept an invitation from someone at that organisation, as seen below. Request from a member to join a channel with a verified company, showing a purple tick next to the company name and buttons to approve or deny


How Slack verifies organisations

We'll be working to verify organisations on an ongoing basis, but we're not accepting verification requests at this time. If verified, we’ll automatically apply the verified tick mark to that organisation's profile. 

When evaluating the legitimacy of an organisation, we look at a number of factors:

  • The organisation is a paid customer of Slack.
  • The organisation is authenticit has a verifiable public business presence, or other factors that we may evaluate.

Slack cannot fully guarantee that an organisation’s identity is legitimate, and this feature is provided as a convenience for customers. It is ultimately the responsibility of customers to confirm the identity of its trusted partners. Slack is not liable for any issues caused by identification errors, and Slack reserves the right to remove the verified tick mark from organisations at our discretion.
