This guide is for recipients: the people who receive certificates and badges. Issuers can send them this page.
Every credential you receive is kept in your free Hyperstack wallet at hyperstack.id. Credentials sent to your email arrive in it on their own.
Open your credential
When an organization issues you a credential, you get an email with a link to it. The credential page shows your certificate and badge, who issued it, and when.
On the credential page you can:
- Download the certificate as a PDF, or the badge as a PNG. There are two badge files: Open Badges 2.0 works with most platforms, and Open Badges 3.0 is signed, for digital wallets. If you are not sure, choose Open Badges 2.0.
- Switch between the Certificate and the Badge.
- Verify credential: check that it is genuine and still valid.
- Share on LinkedIn, or share on X, Facebook and WhatsApp.
- Add to LinkedIn Profile: the LinkedIn icon adds the credential to the Licenses & certifications part of your profile.
- Copy the credential link to send it to anyone, for example an employer.
Some credentials also have a Transcript Letter, the progress on a learning pathway, or an Add to Google Wallet button.
Sign in to your wallet
Go to hyperstack.id and click Sign in, or Create account if you are new. Use the email address your credentials were sent to. You can also click Manage My Wallet on any credential page.
You can sign in with your email and password, with Google, or with a passkey.
Your credentials
Credentials lists everything you have earned.
- Issued to you: verified credentials from the organizations you learned with.
- Added by you: certificates or badges you earned elsewhere, which you keep here yourself.
- Your pathways: your progress on learning pathways.
Choose what others can see
Open the menu on a credential and click Make private or Make public.
- Public: anyone with the link can see it, and it shows on your public profile.
- Private: only you, and the organization that issued it, can see it.
An issuer can show one short promotion, such as its next course, after your credential on your credential pages. Your credential and its verification do not change.
To hide promotions on all your credentials, go to Settings and turn off Show issuers’ promotions. You can also click Hide on all my credentials above the promotion on your own credential page.
Add a credential you earned elsewhere
Click Add credential. Enter the title, the credential ID or serial number, who issued it and when. Then upload the file (PDF, PNG or JPEG, up to 25 MB) or add a link to it.
Fix a mistake on your credential
Is your name spelled wrong, or is a detail wrong? Ask the issuer to fix it.
- Open the menu on the credential and click Request a change.
- Type the correct details. Change only what is wrong, and add a note if you like.
- Click Send request.
Nothing changes until the issuer approves it. We email you their answer. If they approve, your credential shows the new details and its link stays the same. See Change requests.
Add your work to a credential
Some organizations let you add your own work to a credential, such as a link to your project, your portfolio or a report. It shows in the Evidence card on your credential page, labelled Added by the recipient.
- Open the menu on the credential and click Add evidence. If the credential already has evidence, click Evidence, then Add evidence.
- Choose Link, File or Text, and type a Title.
- Add the link, choose the file (PDF, PNG, JPEG or WebP, up to 10 MB), or type the text.
- Click Add evidence.
You can also add it on the credential page. Sign in, open the credential page and click Add evidence.
Anyone who can see the credential can see what you add. The organization does not check it.
Evidence on the credential’s menu, or the Evidence line on the card, opens the list. It shows what the organization added and what you added. Click ⋯ on one of your items to edit or delete it.
- You can add up to 5 items to each credential.
- You can’t change the organization’s items.
- The organization can hide an item you added. It no longer shows on the credential page, and your list marks it Hidden by with the organization’s name. If you delete a hidden item, it still counts as one of your 5.
- You can add only when the organization allows it, and only while the credential is active. If you can’t add, the dialog tells you why.
See Credential evidence for how organizations use it.
Claim a credential
If an organization issued you a credential without your email, they give you a claim link. Open it, click Claim credential, and sign in. The credential is added to your wallet.
Claim an NFT of your credential
Some organizations also mint your credential as an NFT on Hedera. The credential card then reads NFT ready to claim. Open the claim form, paste your Hedera account ID (0.0.…) or your MetaMask address (0x…), and click Claim NFT. The NFT reaches your wallet within seconds. You can claim it once, and it cannot be sent on. See NFT credentials.
Your public profile
Profile shows the certificates and badges you made public, and your contact details. Click Copy link to share your profile, or View as visitor to see it as others do.
Your profile’s address is hyperstack.id/ followed by your username. To change your name, username, tagline, picture, contact links or profile visibility, go to Settings.
Pathways
Pathways shows the learning pathways your credentials are part of, and what is left to earn on each. When you complete a pathway, you may get its goal credential automatically.
Reviews
Your credential email can have a link to review the course. Reviews lists the reviews you wrote, so you can edit them. Issuers may show them on their public pages.
Transcripts
If the issuer added a transcript, the credential page has a Transcript Letter card. Click View transcript and sign in with the email the credential was sent to. Only you and the issuer can open it.
Need help?
If you can’t find your credential email, ask the organization that issued it to resend it. For questions about your wallet, contact Hyperstack support. Last modified on November 10, 2026
