White-Label Verification & Brand Trust

The Strategic Value of White-Label Verification

When a student, employee, or accredited professional receives a digital credential, their immediate action is to share it on professional networks like LinkedIn or embed it in digital resumes. When third-party recruiters, clients, or verification officers click to validate that credential, the verification landing page represents your organization's primary digital flagship.

Redirecting verifiers to generic third-party vendor URLs dilutes your brand authority and introduces unnecessary security skepticism. iCertify's white-label verification engine enables institutions to host the entire verification experience under their own domain (e.g., verify.yourcompany.com) with custom CSS, branded navigation headers, and custom SSL certificates.

Architectural Setup for Custom Domains

Configuring a white-label domain in iCertify requires a simple 3-step DNS configuration:

1. Create DNS CNAME Record: Map your chosen subdomain (e.g., verify.yourdomain.com) to cname.icertify.online.
2. Automatic TLS/SSL Provisioning: iCertify automatically issues a TLS certificate for your custom domain within 5 minutes.
3. Domain Ownership Validation: The portal validates HTTP/DNS challenge response and activates your custom verification route.
