Quickie from my phone, sorry.
I think the world is not full of stupid people. Two similar but distinct logos should not be a challenge for the general population... even in the USA, where education is somewhat questionable in quality, or in African countries where education is *ahem* borderline extant. You don't have to be able to name e.g. pink and blue in order to know them as different...
Someone with an iq below say 75 /might/ have trouble - but someone with an iq that's also a thermostat setting is going to have a tremendous challenge just generally navigating through the world as-is, and we can therefore ignore that use case.

So... have the word "EOMA68" in the logo for both tiers,
no tiers. too dangerous, too confusing.
just have something that universally indicates "premium" or "certified" or "extra"
or
"plus" in the "EOMA68=Certified" logo,
which means "optional" which means "confusion". no, sorry chris.
Luke, with all due respect, it's kind of obvious that you're not even trying here.
i'm trying *really hard* to get across that the risk when you have a hundred million people buying "stuff" it's a totally different ballgame.
if this was only maybe 50,000 people world-wide even in my wildest dreams, i simply would not be bothering. at all.
can you reassure me that out of a HUNDRED MILLION people there will be ZERO CONFUSION over what a different colour means?
...feck it. I've got to get ready for some errands, it's that day of the week. I'll draw up examples and show you, when I get back later. It'll
be a
few hours.
it's appreciated... but no, i do appreciate what you're saying, i do appreciate the distinction you're trying to make.... and unless you can provide GUARANTEED reassurance that there will be ZERO confusion in the eyes of hundreds of millions of users... no fear, no uncertainty, no doubt WHATSOEVER, the answer really does have to be no.
can you do that?
