Authentica: COA Certificates
A Certificate of Authenticity for every order, automatically
Authentica issues a serial-numbered, QR-verifiable Certificate of Authenticity the moment an order is paid. Your buyer, or a future owner, confirms the item is genuine from a verification page hosted on your own store. No wallets, no crypto, no blockchain, and never a fee per certificate.
Free plan. 50 certificates a month with the full designer. Starter is $7.99/mo, Pro is $19.99/mo.
Available in 8 languages: English, German, Spanish, Italian, French, Arabic, Japanese, Chinese
Every order, certified automatically.
Under a minute, from paid order to a serial-numbered certificate the buyer can verify by scanning it.
Every brand where authenticity and provenance matter
If a buyer could ever wonder "is this real", Authentica gives them the answer in one scan. Starter presets auto-fill the wording and fields for every niche, so the certificate is never generic.
Proof of authenticity, designed by you
Authentica is not a fixed template. It is a real design tool with the verification, provenance and reach the older certificate-of-authenticity tools charge crypto fees for.
Auto-issue on every paid order
A certificate is created for each item the moment an order is paid, with no work from you. Prefer to wait until fulfillment? Switch the trigger in one click.
QR verification, anywhere
Every certificate gets its own verification page and QR code. Buyers verify instantly with no account and nothing to install. Print QR labels or add a scan-to-verify QR to packing slips.
Design your certificate, no code
A real drag-and-drop designer with live preview. Your logo, colors, custom fields and wording, 30-plus fonts, a custom seal upload, light and dark themes, and paper sizes ready to print.
Prove provenance and ownership
Record ownership transfers when an item is resold or gifted, so the certificate follows the item to its new owner. Buyers can report a suspected problem, and a refunded item is revoked automatically.
Cryptographically signed
Every certificate carries a tamper-evident fingerprint and signature, independently verifiable, without any wallet, NFT or blockchain to set up or pay for.
Certify your back-catalog
Issue certificates for past orders in one run, so every customer you have ever had gets a certificate before your next launch or fair.
Install today, certify your first order today
There is nothing to configure before the first certificate goes out. A sample certificate is ready to view the moment you open the app.
Pick a category
Choose your niche and the designer auto-fills wording, fields and a starter layout built for it, from jewelry to trading cards to fine art.
Design it your way
Drag elements on the canvas, add your logo and seal, pick a theme, colors and fonts. What you design is exactly what buyers receive.
Orders certify themselves
Every paid order issues a serial-numbered certificate with its own QR verification page and cryptographic signature. Nothing more to do.
Track and print
Print QR labels, add a verify QR to packing slips, watch verification insights come in, and certify past orders whenever you are ready.
