A verified MRR badge for your website.

What a badge should show

Most revenue badges show one number and a growth percentage. That proves the business exists this month, which is not the thing your prospect is uncertain about. They are wondering whether you will still be here when they need you, and a snapshot cannot speak to that.

The version worth embedding shows the history: every month, as far back as your payments go, with the launches and pricing changes marked on the dates they happened. A reader can see the shape of the thing in two seconds and check the detail if they want to.

One line of code

Connect, publish, then paste this where you want it — an about page, a pricing page, a footer:

<iframe src="https://thonest.com/embed/your-company"
        style="width:100%;height:520px;border:0"></iframe>
<script src="https://thonest.com/embed.js" async></script>

It sizes itself to its container, follows the visitor’s light or dark setting, and updates on its own as your revenue moves. There is no screenshot to retake.

Why the mark stays on

Every Thonest embed carries a small “Thonest Verified” link, on every plan, and there is no tier that removes it. That is not a watermark we are charging you to take off — it is the entire mechanism. A revenue figure with nothing standing behind it is a number you typed, and your visitors have been discounting those for years.

The link goes to a page explaining what verified means, written for the person reading your site rather than for you — so the reader who wants to check has somewhere to go.

What it connects to

Stripe, Paddle, Polar, Dodo Payments, RevenueCat, Superwall, Creem and Lemon Squeezy. Where the processor offers a read-only key, that is what you paste, and it cannot move money, issue refunds or change your account; Creem and Lemon Squeezy offer none, so Thonest uses their key only to read. You can revoke any key at any time. Nothing is public until you publish it, and you choose which moments appear.

Questions founders ask

What is an MRR badge?

A small widget on your own website showing your monthly recurring revenue, read from your payment processor rather than typed in. The useful ones update themselves and carry a mark saying who verified the figure, so a reader has something to check rather than a number to take on faith.

How do I add one to my site?

Connect your payment processor with a read-only key, publish, then paste one line of code where you want it. It works in plain HTML, Webflow, Framer, WordPress or anything else that accepts an iframe, and it follows your visitor's light or dark setting.

Is it free?

On Thonest, yes. Publishing a timeline and embedding it costs nothing, with no limit on how far back the history reaches. The paid plan is for founders running more than one business.

Can I remove the verification mark?

No, and you would not want to. The mark is the claim: an unbranded revenue figure sitting on your own website is a number you typed, which is exactly what your visitors already discount. Removing it removes the only reason the widget is worth putting up.

Does it show my customer data?

No. Thonest reads subscriptions and customer counts, and individual customer identities are never stored or published. Where your processor offers a read-only key — Stripe, Paddle, Polar, Dodo Payments, RevenueCat and Superwall do — the key cannot move money, issue refunds or change your account. Lemon Squeezy and Creem keys could, so for those Thonest uses the key only to read.

What if my revenue goes down?

It shows that too, which is why the rest gets believed. A widget that only moved upward would be a marketing graphic, and readers treat those as decoration.
