How to check a provider's licence
A licence number is only useful if you check it with the regulator. Here is how.
Spotting an unlicensed seller
The warning signs, why they matter and where to report a seller you think is operating without a licence.
Comparing compliance and point-of-sale software
A checklist for businesses choosing tools: what to ask, what to see demonstrated and what to put in writing.
What a provider listing should include
The fields that make a listing trustworthy, from licence number to a regulator link and a last-checked date.
Reading a certificate of analysis
What the lab report on a product tells you, what it does not and the one calculation that explains THC versus THCA.
Why lab figures and home calculations differ
A lab reports what is in a product. A home calculation estimates a maximum. They answer different questions.
