Phaten Matter Module and Comprehensive Certification Services¶
Why Choose Matter Certification?¶
The Matter standard aims to enhance compatibility and interoperability among smart home devices. For device manufacturers, Matter certification is not only a market requirement but also a guarantee of quality. Matter certification includes:
- Device Authentication Certificate (DAC): Ensures the device identity with a Matter Device ID issued by the CSA Alliance or its authorized entities.
- Product Compliance Certification: Confirms that the device complies with Matter protocol requirements, ensuring legal market entry.

Comparison with Traditional Matter Certification Processes Offered by Feiteng Cloud¶
Method 1: Formal Membership, High Cost, Development of Matter
- Device manufacturers must apply to become formal members of the CSA Alliance, paying a membership fee of at least $7,000 USD per year.
- Upon completing development, devices are submitted to designated testing facilities to verify compliance with Matter protocols, with testing costs ranging from $3,000 to $10,000 USD.
- After compliance verification, an application for certification is submitted to the CSA Alliance, with fees ranging between $2,000 to $3,000 USD.
- Upon completion of these steps, the device receives Matter "Product Compliance Certification."
Method 2: Provisional Member - OEM, Unable to Change Devices
- The solution provider has already completed Matter certification for multiple device models.
- Device manufacturers apply to become provisional members of the CSA Alliance, a process that is free and takes 2-3 days.
- Manufacturers select suitable devices from the solution provider's list and OEM them. No changes to device functionality are permitted during OEM.
- The solution provider transfers the certification certificate to the device manufacturer, who pays $2,500 USD to the CSA Alliance and undergoes a process lasting 5-10 days.
- Starting from the second year after certification, manufacturers are required to pay $500 USD annually to the CSA Alliance.
