Each electronic certificate has a:

• unique number that could be used for checking the certificate
• unique URL on the Internet that could be used for sharing
• fields like name, city, date, description and others depending on its purpose
• custom branding exactly for you organization

This is where electronic verifiable certificates from Retiffy step in. They could be downloaded and printed, but they could also be shared and tracked.

A few years ago we personally tried giving paper certificates to out students. Printed on a white paper and put into a plastic they looked really beautiful. Here is one of them:

Paper in this case meant “invisible to more then a few people”

What we noticed is that after students receive them only their parent and probably siblings see the certificates. This, we thought, was definitely not fair for the efforts  the student has put. So we start issuing paper and electronic certificates to our students. And even today we issue electronic certificates, we print them, hand them out to the students and after that send them on their email.
