Ship verifiable credential issuance solutions fast and with ease.

Start to issue digital credentials or build Issuance-as-a-Service platforms.

  • Self-managed - Host on-prem or in your cloud
  • Standards-based - OID4VC, W3C/SD-JWT VC, mDL
  • Compliant with ID regulations and trust frameworks

Who it's for

Outcomes trusted across industries

+30k devs, businesses and governments already rely on our infrastructure.

Why so many teams use our stack?

  • Go to market fast and stay compliant with a build-apps/buy-infra model.
  • Ship production-grade issuance solutions without re-implementing specs (OID4VCI, ISO/IEC 18013, W3C VC, SD-JWT VC, …)
  • Focus on product, not plumbing with ready-made rails for key management, revocation, data sourcing and more
  • Open, modular architecture maximises flexibility, prevents lock-in and minimises development or compliance risks.

Issuer highlights

Core capabilities

Issuance Protocols

OID4VCI (+ Draft 11/13), ISO/IEC 18013:7 path for mDL.

Credential formats and types

SD-JWT VC, W3C VC 1.1 / 2.0, ISO/IEC 18013:5 mDL/mDoc. Custom attribute structures, types and schemas.

Lifecycle and status

Revocation and suspension: Status lists (e.g. Bitstring Status List, TokenStatusList, ...). Pre-determined validity: Valid-from / expiry dates.

Keys and KMS

Manage keys (e.g. ed25519, secp256r1/k1, RSA) via external KMS (e.g. AWS, Azure, Hashicorp, OCI…).

DIDs and identifiers

DIDs based on various methods (e.g. did:key, did:web, ...) or x509 certificates.

ID Ecosystems

Issuance aligned with new ID regulations and trust frameworks like eIDAS2, EBSI, DISTF, ...

Webhooks and events

Real-time callbacks for offer creation, claim attempts, credential issuance, and failure states.

Data sourcing and functions

Populate claims from your DB/IdP and compute values just-in-time—timestamps, IDs, external lookups.

Credential branding and display

Control wallet rendering, titles, logos, colour palette, attribute labels, and localisation.

Core Capabilities

Key Management (KMS-agnostic)

Use external KMS (AWS, Azure, Hashicorp, Oracle, …) or raw keys for PoCs; supports ed25519, secp256r1/k1, RSA and key rotation.

DIDs & Identifiers

Supports did:key, did:jwk, did:web (and others) plus x509 certificates;

(DID Web Hosting DIY)
(DID Web Hosting Managed)

Webhooks / Callbacks

Notify or mirror lifecycle events (e.g., re...cess/error) into external systems for orchestration and audit.

Credential Templates / Types

Flexible JSON models to define credential data structures without rigid templates; sign arbitrary JSON payloads.

Credential Issuance Trigger

Supports issuer-initiated and (roadmapped / coming soon) wallet-initiated issuance flows.

Credential Delivery

Generate OID4VCI offers as QR codes or deep links; Digital Credentials API integration coming soon.

User Auth for Issuance

Pre-auth (with optional PIN) or auth-code via external IdP; verified claims can map into credential fields.

Issuance Modes

Single, batch or deferred issuance to handle bundled credentials (e.g. ID + entitlements).

Credential Lifecycle & Status

Set Revocation & Suspension

Use status fields and status credentials to revoke/suspend credentials.

~(DIY)
(Managed)

Set Expiration & Validity Controls

Configure static or dynamically generated validity periods (valid-from / expiry) via data functions.

Identifiers & Trust Anchors

Host did:web Documents

Serve and auto-update did:web documents directly from the platform.
