What is a "Verified Issuer" and how to get it

What Verified Issuer status means, who can get it, and how to request it.

Certify offers issuers the option to become a Verified Issuer. Verification makes your credentials more credible to recipients and to anyone checking them, such as employers.

What being verified means

Certify checks that your organisation is who it says it is. Once verified, your issuer profile and your credentials show a verified mark. Credentials from organisations that haven't been verified show that the issuer is not verified, which recipients sometimes ask about. See Why does my credential say 'Unverified'?

Who can get verified

Verified Issuer status is available to organisations on a paid plan.

How to get verified

  1. Make sure your organisation is on a paid plan.

  2. Open the chat inside your Certify account and ask our team to verify your organisation.

  3. We will guide you through the rest of the process.

While you wait, it's worth completing your issuer page, so recipients see your logo, description and website. See Setting up your issuer account: a checklist.
