For the safety of our Users, and to ensure the integrity of the Gloworder Marketplace Platform, Gloworder reviews and verifies each entity and/or person attempting to register for Third-Party Provider access. The primary objectives of the review process are to ensure that the person registering the Third-Party Provider (Registerer) is legally authorized to do so on behalf of the Third-Party Provider – and may therefore legally-bind the establishment to Gloworder’s Terms of Use – and to prevent false and misleading registrations.

There are two individuals who are commonly recognized to have control in establishments that server alcohol:
a. the owner of the legal entity whose name is listed on the current, valid corporate documents as filed with each state’s secretary of state, or
b. the person in whose name the liquor license is held as is filed with each state’s Department of Revenue and/or publicly listed on each state’s government website.
More often than not, this is the same person: the business owner. However, owners sometimes authorize general managers to be the named holder of the business’s liquor license. While we understand the reasons for this decision, in the vein of transparency and with respect for our agreements with our payment processors and/or partners, only a majority owner with legal control over the business may register the business as a Third-Party Provider.
For each registration for Third-Party Provider access, an agent of Gloworder will review the information provided and compare the information to the public databases provided by each state. A list of state databases can be found below. It is from the below-listed databases that verifying information will be obtained.
The listed owner and the holder of the liquor license will then be contacted for verification using the information available in the state’s database. This protects us all against fraudulent registrations.
