Credostar
What it is
Credostar is a digital credentialing platform for organizations issuing certificates, badges, and professional credentials. Teams can design branded credentials with a visual editor or upload HTML/CSS templates, then issue them in bulk from CSV files, LMS connections, or the API with automated email delivery. Credentials are cryptographically signed W3C Verifiable Credentials and have public verification pages. The platform follows W3C Verifiable Credentials and OpenBadges 3.0 standards, and it lists Google Drive, Razorpay, Zoho, LMS/CRM connectors, REST API, webhooks, and CSV imports. Analytics cover views, referral sources, shares, and clicks. Standard credentials have a limited download window and no QR code; Premium adds a QR code, unique ID, lifetime availability, and public verification, while Blockchain credentials anchor proof to a public chain. Exports are available in open formats, and enterprise plans can run a self-hosted verifier. A free plan provides 1,000 credits for one month. Pay-as-you-go costs ₹500 once for at least 500 credits, which never expire. Credostar says it is onboarding early-access issuers ahead of its Q3 2026 launch.
