Issue credentials your members truly own.
Government agencies, boards, associations and schools use FreeholdIP to issue licenses, certifications and diplomas that the holder owns and anyone can verify for free. They can't be silently altered, and they keep working even if your systems go down.

The proof rests on your domain, not on ours
A FreeholdIP credential is checked against the signing key your organization publishes in its own DNS, read directly by whoever is verifying it, with no FreeholdIP server in the loop.
- 1The signatureProves that key signed the credential.
- 2Your DNS recordProves the key is yours. Whoever controls your domain is your organization, and anyone can confirm that for themselves.
- 3Our part is narrowerBefore an organization can issue here, we confirm it is the organization it says it is, and we don't open issuing to just anyone. That vetting is a gate, not the source of the trust.
A copy the holder keeps still checks out even if the issuer, or FreeholdIP, is gone.
How you become an issuer
We set up every issuer personally. Here's how it works.
- ApplyTell us about your organization, then publish one TXT record on your domain holding your signing key. That one record proves both things at once: the domain is yours, and the key is yours. It's the same record the public reads when they check one of your credentials, so it isn't paperwork for us. It's the proof itself.
- We verify youThrough your official channels and the proof you upload, never just an email address.
- You generate your signing keyIn your own browser. We never see it. Your organization then takes its own name on the Algorand blockchain, an asset only you hold, publishing that public key where anyone can look it up without asking us. Then you issue credentials your members own.
What an issued credential gives them
Licenses and certificates people keep for life. Anyone can confirm one in seconds, for free.
They own it
The credential is theirs, held with their own key.
Free to verify
No logins or fees for anyone checking it.
Tamper-evident
Sealed with your digital signature and permanently stamped on the public record. Alter one character and it stops verifying.
Outlives everything
A held copy still verifies even if your systems, or ours, go away.
