There are a lot of content creators and independent media that have a difficult time getting into press conferences, news events, breaking news events; when they don't have proper press credentials.
Many of these content creators create their own pass but in many cases they are not sufficient and don't work.
Media Guild has created press credentials that not only certify you are a news professional; the press pass can be confirmed and verified by us as a third-party organization.
Users can print the press pass to make as a badge in any size as needed. The badge can still be confirmed digitally with the included QR code.
Here's a demo of the Press Credential:
This is a working demo. The QR code works. If you're on a phone (and cannot take a snapshot of the QR Code), you can go to ool.io/DC5504 to see the digital confirmation.
Why Should I Get This:
Media Guild acts as a third-party agent that can confirm and verify that you are a media professional and a working press professional.
How Do You Verify For The Credentials:
We have a process that includes confirming your name, position, outlet, distribution and profession. This includes verifying a few things like your name, address, social media, traffic, media outlet (if you have one) and other topics.
Does Everyone Who Applies Get Credentials:
No. We do not approve everyone. Only after our verification and confirmation process is passed; we will then create credentials for applicant.
Do I Need To Pay First:
No. We provide an initial review before doing a complete verification. This will allow us to determine if you would be able to get confirmed for press credentials. This process will prevent you having to pay only to find out you do not get approved.
Can My Credentials Get Denied After Approval:
Yes. If it is found that you are misusing the credentials, the digital verification and press pass will be cancelled. There will be no refund if credential misuse occurs. Misuse of credentials includes (but not limited to); Using press pass for personal reasons. Using pass to get into to events without working. Sharing pass with others. Using pass to allow more than one person to enter a venue or event. Making any type of alteration, duplication (except one printed badge) or selling credential.
