What should a lender be able to edit after claiming its profile?
Domain verification can establish page administration, but public criteria still need provenance and review. Which fields can be self-service, and which require moderation?

Contact details, partner links, products, logo, and documents can be self-service with a visible lender-provided source label.
Criteria changes should create a version and review event rather than silently replacing the public history.
Admins need multiple seats, role permissions, and a way to remove former employees promptly.
Should a domain-matched email make the person a full admin immediately?
It can grant scoped administration after verification, but sensitive actions should require reauthentication and be audited.
Claimed status should never affect editorial ranking, reviews, or whether users can report a problem.
A profile completion meter would help lenders see missing criteria, contacts, products, address, and current documents.
Completion must measure supplied fields, not accuracy. Verification and source quality remain separate indicators.
Manual claiming through support remains necessary when the lender cannot use its website domain.
Enable practical self-service with permissions and audit history, while keeping verification, completeness, and editorial independence distinct.
