Certificates & verification
Certificates anyone can verify in seconds
Fake certificates damage every institution's reputation. Soma360 issues certificates only when a student has truly met the requirements, gives each one a unique QR code, and lets employers confirm it is genuine on your public verification page.
Only when earned
Fees, results and attendance requirements are checked before a certificate can be issued.
Instant verification
Anyone can scan the QR code to confirm a certificate is genuine and current.

FAQ
Questions about Certificates & verification
How do employers verify a certificate?
They scan the QR code or enter the certificate number on your verification page, which shows whether it is valid, revoked or unknown.
Can we stop certificates for students with fee balances?
Yes. "Fees cleared" is one of the completion requirements checked before issuing.
What if a certificate has a mistake?
Reissue it. The corrected certificate replaces the old one and the history is kept.
