Credentialsthat provethemselves.

Credostar is a digital credentialing platform for organizations that issue certificates, badges, and professional credentials. Design templates, issue at scale, and give recipients a verification page they can share anywhere. Every credential is cryptographically signed and follows the W3C Verifiable Credentials and OpenBadges 3.0 open standards.

A verifiable credential is a digitally signed claim about a person (a degree, license, course completion, professional certification) that any third party can verify without contacting the issuer. The proof lives in the credential itself via cryptographic signatures and public keys. The W3C Verifiable Credentials specification is the open standard most platforms now follow.

Credostar is built on open standards from the ground up. Every credential is a W3C Verifiable Credential, which means it is portable and independently verifiable through any compliant tool. We also charge per credential issued, not per seat, and credits never expire. The product fundamentals are deeper too: three credential tiers, a recipient rectification workflow with audit trail, and customizable branding without forcing a full white-label tier.

Activation is immediate. You can sign up, design your first template in the visual editor, upload a recipient CSV, and issue your first batch in well under an hour. Bulk imports from your LMS or CRM use the same flow.

Yes. The free plan covers 1,000 credits with one-month validity, no credit card required. After that, credits are pay-as-you-go starting at 500 credits and never expire once purchased. Each credential tier (Standard, Premium, Blockchain) consumes a different credit amount.

Three tiers cover the spectrum. Standard credentials have a limited-time download window and no QR code, suited for low-stakes attendance or participation proofs. Premium credentials get a QR code, a unique credential ID, lifetime availability, and a public verification page; this is what most organizations choose. Blockchain credentials anchor the proof to a public chain for tamper-evident verification on high-stakes credentials. You can mix tiers across programs.

Yes. Credostar exposes a REST API and webhooks, and supports CSV imports for systems without a direct connector. The bulk issuance flow is designed to slot into existing learning, HR, and events workflows without requiring you to replace them.

Yes. Upload a CSV or connect a group of recipients and Credostar issues, delivers, and tracks each credential individually with a unique verification URL. Email delivery is automated with retry and bounce handling. Large batches process in the background; you get a notification when they finish.

Anywhere. Every credential is a W3C Verifiable Credential, which means the cryptographic proof travels with the credential itself. Any compliant verifier (including open-source implementations and a self-hosted endpoint on Enterprise) can validate a Credostar-issued credential. You can also export every credential, recipient, and template in open formats at any time.

Credostar is ISO 27001 certified and SOC 2 audit is in progress. All credentials are cryptographically signed; verification is tamper-evident. We follow the W3C Verifiable Credentials and OpenBadges 3.0 specifications natively, both of which are designed for adversarial verification. Enterprise plans include self-hosted verifier options so internal teams never depend on a public endpoint.

Fully. Bring your logo, primary and secondary colors, font family, and even a branded login screen out of the box. The advanced visual editor handles pixel-perfect template design without code, and you can upload raw HTML/CSS templates if you want full control. Enterprise plans extend this to a full white-label experience.

Each credential ships with a unique verification URL and (on Premium and Blockchain tiers) a QR code. Recipients can share the URL or QR on LinkedIn, in resumes, with employers, or anywhere. Anyone who opens it sees a public verification page that confirms the credential is genuine, issued by your organization, and unmodified.
