More than form filling: an explainable credential case built from your records, checked by a person, and designed to remain useful for the next transaction.

01

Your records—not assumptions

We start with the credential, sea service, training, and evidence you actually have instead of forcing every mariner through the same checklist.

02

Answers you can trace

What qualifies, what is missing, and what does not apply are recorded with the basis for the determination—not hidden behind a vague recommendation.

03

Human review stays in the loop

Automated organization supports the work, but a person reviews the case before it is treated as submission-ready.

04

A record that carries forward

Your Verified Mariner Record is designed to support later renewals, upgrades, endorsements, and career decisions without starting over.

Our rule: We do not recommend unnecessary training, examinations, endorsements, applications, or services simply to create another sale.

Built by a mariner, for mariners

Experience behind every credential case.

MMC Credential Concierge was founded by Captain Larry Tompkins, a working U.S. merchant mariner and U.S. Navy Gulf War combat veteran.

After more than three decades at sea, he understands what a credential means to a mariner's livelihood—and how costly missing, unclear, or incorrect application information can become.

We help organize and prepare credential applications. We are not the National Maritime Center, do not issue credentials, and cannot guarantee approval or processing time.
