Our verdict on BadgeCert
BadgeCert is a digital credentialing platform for associations, universities, training providers, corporations, nonprofits, and other organizations. It supports digital badge and certificate issuance, public verification pages, credential expiration rules, stackable credentials, micro-credential pathways, and cloud-based earner portfolios. Recipients can share credentials through social networks, websites, email, and professional profiles, with eligible credentials saved to Apple Wallet or Google Wallet. It is particularly suited to organizations connecting credential programs with an LMS or broader learning ecosystem.
The plan structure scales from core issuance to enterprise administration. Basic includes digital badges and certificates, public verification pages, Open Badge 3.0, Google SSO and MFA, 2 administrators, and 5 credential templates. Growth adds custom branding and white-labeling, engagement analytics, API and LTI 1.3 integration, custom email templates and sender domains, and Apple and Google Wallet access for every earner. Enterprise adds enterprise SSO and SAML, custom workflows, dedicated onboarding and an account manager, a 99.99% SLA, and 24/7 support. Pricing is paid and calculated by recipient volume, so the product is better suited to organizations planning an ongoing credentialing program than to casual or occasional issuers.
BadgeCert’s strongest fit is an LMS-connected program that needs more than simple certificate generation. Its listed integrations include Canvas, Blackboard Learn, Moodle LMS, Schoology, Sakai, D2L Brightspace, Cornerstone, Skillsoft, Docebo, and other education and training platforms. Credential expiration, verification, analytics, branding, API access, and pathways provide room for structured programs and progression-based credentials. Organizations with limited administrative needs may find Basic sufficient, while larger programs can use Growth or Enterprise capabilities. Buyers seeking a free entry tier, a small template allowance with broader administration, or a simpler standalone certificate tool should consider a narrower alternative.
