The Challenge
Your members' credentials go stale.
Static certificates can't reflect changes in membership status, fee payment, or CPD compliance. Once issued, they stop telling the truth.
Outdated Certificates
Members carry static proof that no longer reflects current standing or fee status.
Holder
Membership leakage when there's no visible consequence for lapsed fees or CPD
Credential Fraud
Credential fraud through altered or copied paper and static digital certificates
Weak Member Proposition
A weaker member proposition when membership can't be easily evidenced
How It Works
A live connection between issuer, holder, and verifier.
Static certificates can't reflect changes in membership status, fee payment, or CPD compliance. Once issued, they stop telling the truth.
1
Your Body Sets the Rules
Define eligibility: membership dates, fee status, CPD thresholds.
2
PrivySeal Issues the Live Credential
Generated from real-time source data, never a static snapshot.
3
Members Carry Living Proof
Embedded in email signatures, LinkedIn, and documents, updating automatically.
4
Weak Member Proposition
One click confirms current status directly against your organization.
Credentials are automatically revoked when a member lapses on fees or CPD, and reinstated the moment they're compliant again.
The Difference
Not a badge.
A living credential.
A Static Badge
Issued once, then frozen in time
Reads as valid long after standing changes
Easy to copy, forge, or keep using after lapse
Verification requires contacting the issuer
A PrivySeal
Reflects live status, updated continuously
Revoked the moment standing lapses — reinstated just as fast
Sealed to your record; nothing static to forge
Anyone verifies in seconds, at the point of need
Why It Matters
Six outcomes for your professional body.
Member Retention
A credential that stays current gives members a real reason to renew, not just an obligation.
New Registrations
Prospective members verify your body’s standing before joining, shortening the decision.
Revenue & Fee Recovery
Fee-linked status updates automatically, with no manual reconciliation against a separate ledger.
CPD Completion
Completion status ties directly to credential validity, so non-compliance surfaces before renewal.
Fraud Prevention
Nothing static to forge or reuse — a revoked credential simply stops reading as valid.
Institutional Credibility
Every credential your body issues carries a live, checkable standard behind it.

ECSA

Professional registration. PrivySeal enables real-time verification of engineering credentials, directly integrated into ECSA's registration infrastructure.
FPI

FSA® and other financial planning designations. Members carry seals confirming current good standing, embedding trust into every client-facing interaction.
Driving Adoption
The tipping point.
400,000+
monthly seal views for one regulator requiring seals on all municipal submissions
10% → 80–90%
adoption, once stakeholders start asking
1
Show members the value
Early adopters carry a live, verifiable credential their peers don't have — in signatures, on profiles, on submissions. Visibility does the recruiting.
2
Engage the stakeholders
When employers, clients, and regulators start asking for the seal, carrying one stops being optional. That's the tipping point — and it arrives fast.
Implementation
Getting started is straightforward.
1
Connect Your Data
We connect to your membership or registry system as the source of record.
2
Define Eligibility Rules
You define what standing requires — fees, CPD, registration status.
3
Brand Your Credentials
Credentials carry your body’s identity, marks, and required fields.
4
Deploy to Members
Members receive live credentials, ready to carry and verify from day one.
