What is Virtualbadge.io?

Virtualbadge.io is a digital credentialing platform that helps organisations create, issue, manage, and track certificates and badges. It’s designed for trainers, event organisers, educators, and community builders who want to provide professional, verifiable recognition for participant achievements.

It combines trust, branding, and social media reach in one seamless workflow.

How it Works (End-to-End Flow)

Create

Design your badge or certificate using custom templates or upload your own branded design.

Send

Upload a recipient list and issue certificates automatically or manually via email or integrations.

Manage

Organise credentials, resend if needed, set expiry dates, and group certificates into collections.

Verify

Every certificate includes a unique QR code for instant validation. Verification pages can be white-labelled or hosted on your own domain.

Share

Badges are built for easy sharing on LinkedIn and other social networks, increasing your brand visibility.

Track

Monitor engagement: see who has claimed, shared, or downloaded certificates and badges.

Main Features

Badge and Certificate Designer

Customise your credentials with your brand, colours, and layout. Upload your own backgrounds or use built-in templates.

Social Media-Optimised Credentials

Badges and certificates are optimised for sharing, especially on LinkedIn. They can be added to the “Licenses & Certifications” section with a single click.

Verification and Anti-Fraud

Each credential includes a secure QR code linking to a public validation page. These pages are tamper-proof and help others confirm the authenticity of the award.

Recipient Experience

Participants don’t need to create an account to claim their credentials. They simply click a secure link, download their certificate, and share it if they choose.

Integrations and Automations

Virtualbadge.io connects with over 3,000 apps and tools. You can automate issuance with Zapier, LMS platforms, and email tools. Great for scaling your workflows.

Analytics and Insights

You’ll get detailed tracking on certificate engagement, including claim rates, social shares, and downloads. Use this data to improve your program and understand visibility.

Digital Wallet Support

Certificates can be saved to Apple Wallet and Google Wallet, so recipients always have a mobile version on hand.

QR Codes, Forms, and Surveys

Add QR codes for attendance tracking or let participants request certificates via a feedback form. Good for live or hybrid training events.

In-Person Training Mode

Ideal for events or face-to-face sessions. Attendees scan a QR code to request their certificate, and admins can approve requests on the spot.

GDPR and Data Security

All data is hosted in the EU and complies with GDPR, making the platform a strong fit for European organisations and global teams handling personal data.
