What is OpenCredia?

Issue, share, and verify
without a PDF or a locked platform

Credentials today live as files or inside closed platforms. OpenCredia makes them signed, portable, and independently verifiable, over one API. You build credentials from templates, tie them to the right people, and each one gets a link anyone can use to see it is real, without guessing whether a PDF was forged.

Credentials verifier

Verified

No silos. No proprietary formats. Credentials that move with the recipient and work in the tools (and verifiers) that support the same open standard.

Who it's for

Made for the whole chain

Organizations issue. Recipients keep the proof. Anyone can verify. Not a tool that stops at the issuer.

How it works

Four steps from
issuance to a public check

Under ten minutes from onboarding to your first issued credential.

01

Issue

Issue from a template in the console or through the API.
02

Bind

Tie the credential to the recipient.
03

Claim

The recipient claims the credential into their wallet.
04

Verify

The credential becomes public so anyone can verify it.

Principles

What every credential is built to do

So the proof still works when the platform changes, an employer asks, or you wire it into a product you already run.

Owned by the recipient

Learners and alumni keep portable credentials in their own wallet. The proof moves with the person, not a single vendor, when the platform changes.

Verifiable by default

Each credential is signed and comes with a check people can run in a browser or through your product. Nobody has to trust a screenshot to believe it.

Open standards

Native Open Badges 3.0 and W3C Verifiable Credentials. The same record works in any wallet or tool that supports the spec, not a locked-in format.

Built for integration

Call a REST API when you are ready to wire credentials into onboarding, an LMS, HR, or a product you ship. You do not have to build signing yourself.

Capabilities

Public verification, then wallets your recipients own

Public verification and APIs are how teams plug OpenCredia in. The rest is what keeps your program able to issue, your recipients able to keep what they earned, and your security story straightforward.

Public verification

Every credential gets a public page, plus JSON your product can call. Public reads need no API key.

API access

Call OpenCredia from your backend over REST. Retries do not double a write, and errors tell you what failed.

Issuance

Issue from templates at cohort scale, including batches and CSV import, with a clear record of what went out.

Identity match

Tie each credential to the right person by email, DID, or an id you use. Deduplication stops double issue.

Credential wallet

Recipients claim into a hosted wallet, then share a link or download the signed credential they keep.

Keys & policy

Each organization has its own signing key, stored encrypted. Organization owners can rotate it; previous keys stay published so existing credentials still verify.

Built for developers

An API designed to disappear into your stack

No dashboards required. Issue, revoke, and verify with predictable calls, and point anything at the verification endpoint.

  • REST API with idempotent writes
  • Bulk issuance via CSV
  • Public verification URLs
  • Scoped API keys per environment

Standards

Built on open standards you
can take anywhere

The credential is not locked to one vendor. Recipients can take it with them. Anyone can verify it without an account.

Open Badges v3

The format recipients can take into other wallets and tools. Issued to the Open Badges 3.0 spec.

1EdTech OBv3 spec

W3C Verifiable Credentials

A signed proof, not a screenshot. Compatible tools can check it without logging into OpenCredia.

W3C VC Data Model

Public issuer identity

Issuers can publish a public did:web so verifiers can see who signed it. Recipient DIDs are accepted as IDs.
