How to Set Up Your Sertifier Account: A Step-by-Step Guide

This guide provides a step-by-step walkthrough to help you set up and customize your Sertifier account, ensuring smooth onboarding and optimal use of the platform’s features.

This guide will walk you through the essential settings to get your account up and running.

Accessing Organization Settings

To begin, navigate to Organization Settings. You can find this option in the left-hand menu or by clicking your organization’s name in the top-right corner of the dashboard.



In Organization Settings, you’ll find several key sections:

  • Issuer Profile Settings
  •  General Settings
  •  Issuer Verification
  • Account Preferences
We’ll walk through each of these settings in detail.

Issuer Profile Settings


Your Issuer Profile is your organization’s public-facing profile on Verified, which third parties can access and even find through search engines. Here’s how to customize it:

  • Logo & Organization Name: Upload your organization’s logo and update your organization name.
  • Website URL: Provide your organization’s website link. This can help drive traffic to your site through your issuer profile.
  • Contact Email: Ensure you include a contact email address for recipients to reach out if needed.
  • Profile Visibility: Manage whether your issuer profile is public or not by toggling the profile status.
  • Credential Display: Customize your profile by selecting which credentials, collections, or recipients will be displayed.

    You can preview how your profile looks by clicking the **Visit Issuer Profile** button. For a more detailed walkthrough, refer to our Issuer Profile guide.

General Settings


This section helps you integrate your organization’s details with Sertifier.

  • LinkedIn Organization ID: Link your LinkedIn company ID to display your company’s information when recipients share digital credentials on LinkedIn.
  • Social Media URL: Add your social media account URLs, which will appear on your credential pages, boosting your organization’s visibility.
