vouch
Stake your word
To vouch for someone or something is to personally guarantee their quality, truth, or reliability: I can vouch for her honesty.
The word implies putting your own credibility on the line—if you vouch for someone who proves untrustworthy, your reputation suffers too.
A voucher is a document that serves as proof of payment or entitlement.
