6. Generation of LEAR Verifiable Credentials

The verifiable credentials are used in the Marketplace to as the unique login mechanism, for they are a reliable digital ID that allow to trace back the activity of any person operating within the platform to the original company to which she represents and to minimise the risk of tampering through its own multi-factor authentication mechanism.

The Verifiable Credentials are used to login into the Marketplace, for publishing the company offerings in the Marketplace and, if and when the functionality is available, to manage commercial transactions operated through the Marketplace.

The information you provided about the company, the LEAR designation, etc. is needed for the generation of such verificable credentials in a consistent and reliable way that will bring trust and thus, value, to the users of the Marketplace (be them CSP or Cloud Customers).

Once you receive the confirmation of receipt of the signed copy of the Marketplace Terms and Conditions for Cloud Service Providers, the process for the generation of the verifiable credential for your LEAR starts.

By generating verifiable credentials (LEARCredentials), the Marketplace ensures that only people entrusted by the CSP can operate the CSP’s Marketplace account. This brings value to the operation of the Marketplace as it dramatically lessens the possibility of having illegitimate Offerings listed in the Marketplace, thus uplifting trust sentiment in the Cloud Customers, and also in the CSPs, that have a robust means to control that only the people authorized by the company can implement actions in the Marketplace on their behalf.

Generation of LEAR Credential

The next step will be the generation of verifiable credentials by the Marketplace for your LEAR. To do this, you will need to register on the DOME Digital Wallet (app).

Registering on the Marketplace Digital Wallet

Access the Digital Wallet:

For detailed instructions on how to register and set up your Marketplace Digital Wallet, please refer to the registration section in our comprehensive Wallet Guide. This guide provides step-by-step instructions on creating your wallet account.

Receiving and Accepting the Credential Offer

0. Receiving the Credential Offer:

Once you complete the registration on Marketplace Digital Wallet, and have received the confirmation, you will receive within a few days an email with a so-called credential offer.

(NOTE: even if the name is Credential Offer accepting the verifiable credential is mandatory for having an operational CSP account in the Marketplace: if you do not complete the process of generating the verifiable credential - i.e., accepting the credential offer- you will not be able to operate your account and thus, even if you have signed the Marketplace Contract for Cloud Service Providers, you will not be technically enabled to receive the Marketplace Services).
