Why should I get an LEI Certificate?

It is very common that your bank, broker, etc may ask for your LEI or proof of it while opening an account or before making a financial transaction. This is where the LEI Certificate becomes handy. You can forward an electronic LEI Certificate via email to their onboarding team or upload it to your bank account or trader's cabinet. We also offer a physical paper certificate that you can order to your office.

An LEI is required from any legal entity that regularly incorporates financial transactions. This includes buying stocks, bonds and other securities. Some jurisdictions also require legal entities to obtain an LEI to make them easily identifiable. There are also a number of industries that are now required to apply for an LEI.

What is an LEI Tag?

LEI Tag is an informational data source that you can display on your website in order to indicate the legal entity behind the website. Website visitors can click on the LEI Tag, open it up, and see the basic information like the full legal entity name and address. By clicking the LEI Tag once more, a new tab will be opened with your company's LEI Certificate page on the LEI Register website that has all the information based on your LEI. Learn how to implement it on your website from below

What is an LEI Tag+?

LEI Tag+ is a token that comes with an LEI Tag and it shows that the company displaying it is compliant with the LEI requirements and has been issued one. LEI is an ISO 17442:2019 standard and by completing an LEI registration, you are proving your organisation's commitment to achieving transparency standards and increasing the credibility of your company. LEI Tag+ is also linked to your company's LEI Certificate page on the LEI Register website that has all the information based on your LEI. 

LEI Tag and Tag+ can be used on the same website simultaneously, but you can also display either one of them. LEI Tag+ can be displayed everywhere on your website. Learn how to implement it on your website from below

Why should I get an LEI Tag?

In some countries, you must display your company name on your company's website. Not necessarily on every single web page, but it must be easily accessible to your visitors in order to validate the legal entity behind the site. In other countries, it is not required, but it is a good practice to have it displayed in order to build trust for your website visitor. This increases the chance that people will interact with your website. The LEI Tag also indicates that you have an active LEI code, which makes your company more trustworthy.

Can I display this information myself or use some other trust mark?

Many companies who sell trust marks do not actually validate your information after the initial application. If you do not renew your LEI and Certificate annually, then your LEI Certificate and Tag will display “Inactive” status which means that your information is expired. If you do update, then we check your information, validate it with the Companies Registry and the “Active” status will be shown.

Yes, you can display all this information yourself, but getting an LEI Tag on your website indicates that you have gone a step further and validated your information with a global standard like an LEI (ISO 17442) and your information is public and you have an LEI Certificate. With an LEI Tag, you will be directly linked to your LEI Certificate and you can display that to your customers to instill more trust.

How to implement the LEI Tag on your website?

Here is an Html script snippet that you would have to copy-paste to the <head> of your website.
Replace XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX with the LEI code of your company:

<script src="https://leiadmin.com/leitag.js?lei=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"></script>

To get the dark blue version of the LEI Tag instead of the lighter white version, use the color=dark attribute:

<script src="https://leiadmin.com/leitag.js?color=dark&lei=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"></script>

After that, the clickable LEI Tag with valid information about your LEI and company will appear in the bottom-right corner of your website.

WordPress

One easy solution would be to install for example the Insert Headers and Footers plugin to allow easy copy-pasting on script snippets to your website. Follow the instructions on how to install the plugin and copy-paste the LEI Tag snippet to the header box in the WordPress admin. You could also add it as custom code if you have developed custom plugins on your website.

Drupal

Basically the same approach as mentioned for WordPress, but for Drupal, is to use the Header and Footer Scripts module:

Others

You can basically google "adding javascript" and your platforms or frameworks name to see some tutorials on how to embed the script. The required web development hours should most likely not exceed 15 to 30 minutes.


How to implement the LEI Tag+ on your website?

Here is an Html snippet that contains the link and the image of the LEI Tag+ symbol that  you would have to copy-paste to where ever you like within your website. Common places to place the image would be in the header, footer or on some page that has information about your service.
Replace XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX with the LEI code of your company:

<a href="https://www.leicode.hk/leicert/?lei=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX&utm_source=website&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=tagplus" id="leitagplus"><img src="https://www.leicode.hk/leitag/gold.svg" height="50px"/></a>

To get the silver version of the LEI Tag+ instead of the gold version, use the silver.svg image:

<a href="https://www.leicode.hk/leicert/?lei=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX&utm_source=website&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=tagplus" id="leitagplus"><img src="https://www.leicode.hk/leitag/silver.svg" height="50px"/></a>

After that, the clickable LEI Tag+ logo will appear on your site exactly where you placed it.

Note that you can change the size of the image by changing the height attribute in the html snippet. For more advanced styling and exact positioning of the image you can use the #leitagplus ID in your CSS style.
