What's involved?

Step 1 of 6

We can advise on our testing availability and help you prioritize your device list.

Step 2 of 6

Sign our WWHA agreement

This lays out clearly each party’s responsibilities to each other.

Step 3 of 6

Pay the annual fee payment of 500 Swiss Francs

Our expert team tests devices

Let us know if you require any customizations to help our team start using your devices.

Step 5 of 6

Testing feedback is given

Not simply a pass/fail: Feedback rounds are imperative to help us address issues and keep user experience a top priority.

Approval and WWHA badge awarded

Use the badge on product listings, web pages, packaging, and other marketing material to showcase your connection with our community.

What's required?

End-devices or hubs

We don’t currently certify items such as Zigbee sticks, Z-Wave sticks, or connecting bridges without matching end devices.

Available to the general public

If your device is going through a crowd-funding or pre-sale campaign, we will not test it until it is fully funded and in the manufacturing stage.

Available locally and not reliant on a separate cloud connection

We prioritize local control above everything else. Cloud control can be an extra, but must be opt-in only.

Available to access firmware updates directly in Home Assistant

Ideally, all devices should be able to access over-the-air (OTA) firmware updates from within our system. If this isn't possible, you must provide a way to alert users about firmware updates.

Zigbee

Matter

CSA Certification

Z-Wave

Z-Wave Alliance Certification

Local network or Bluetooth connectivity

An integration quality of gold or above

All devices must have FCC/CE or equivalent certification

Above all, partners need to share our values of Privacy, Choice, and Sustainability.
