How does the trust system work?

I sold one item successfully this morning and marked it sold and indicated the buyer's name
I thought when the trade is done, the trust point is automatically given to both parties but I see nothing has changed
Does seller and buyer need to press something in order to get trust point?

Once a trade is complete the buyer then has to click "trust" on your trade for it to transfer over. after all, anyone can SAY that "oh i sold this guy this item" but that person has to add your Trust from their account for it to be valid.

In the next trade patch, scheduled to drop next friday-ish, both buyers and sellers will receive the ability to give trust per-trade.

If you look at my profile, i also sold some stuff and only 3 people gave me trust. I typically PM the person and ask them if they can give me trust and link them the trade.

Thank you for the prompt response
Oh I see...so it's kinda like voluntary review/feedback on Amazon after a sale lol

Exactly, but only once the sale is complete and trader is tagged. This makes the trust worth more since its not so automated. At least IMO.

A lot of fake reviews on amazon.

Always ensure to ask for the person to confirm the trust!
