Our verdict on Certifier
Certifier is a web-based and API-enabled platform for organizations that issue digital certificates, badges, and other credentials. It is suited to individuals, small companies, education and certification bodies, mid-sized organizations, and enterprises. Its feature set covers credential design, bulk generation and delivery, online hosting, public verification, expiration management, analytics, social sharing, and integrations. Organizations building a growing credential program can use it for both certificates and badges rather than limiting issuance to one format.
Pricing follows a freemium model. The Starter plan is free forever and includes a certificate and badge editor, mass issuing and delivery, PDF certificate export, verifiable credentials, API access, and integrations. Professional costs $89 per month with monthly billing or $76 per month with annual billing, adding branded emails, scheduled issuing, expirable credentials, advanced analytics, QR code verification, and a custom email sender. Advanced costs $399 per month monthly or $339 per month annually, adding a custom domain, Credentials Portal, verified issuer status, a dedicated account manager, multiple workspaces, and security and compliance support. Certifier for Enterprise adds custom credential limits, custom users and teams, single sign-on, audit and activity logs, unlimited custom roles, and full whitelabeling.
Its ecosystem supports Zapier, Pipedream, Make, Moodle, Google Sheets, Google Forms, Canvas, Zoom, Typeform, Teachable, and HubSpot. API, webhooks, PDF, PNG, and JSON generation give teams several ways to connect issuance with existing workflows. Public verification uses unique links and QR codes, while LinkedIn and social sharing support distribution after issuance. Choose Certifier when a program needs broad credential formats, automation, lifecycle management, and integrations. Smaller programs may find the Starter plan sufficient; teams requiring advanced workspaces, portals, or enterprise controls should evaluate the higher tiers.
