Where It All Happens: The Recipient Dashboard

Recipients can access all the credentials issued to them from the Recipient Dashboard, your personalized space where:

  • All your credentials are listed

  • You can see status tags like “Expired,” “Voided,” or “Pending Change”

  • Notifications and banners give real-time status updates for change requests

  • The dashboard is fully responsive, so you get the same experience whether you log in via desktop, mobile, or tablet

What Can You Do as a Recipient?

Below is a full breakdown of all the actions you can perform in Wauld as a credential recipient:

1. Viewing and Downloading Credentials

Wauld gives you instant access to your credentials from any device; with no need to search through emails or attachments.

  • View full credential details including:

    • Name, issuer, issuance/expiry dates, tags (voided, expired, etc.)

  • Download your credentials as high-quality PDFs

  • Keep a personal archive of your achievements, licenses, or certifications

2. Sharing Your Credentials

You can easily share your credentials with employers, academic institutions, or on your professional networks. Wauld supports three primary methods:

  • Shareable Link - Copy a unique credential link and share it anywhere

  • Email Sharing - Send directly to third parties (up to 5 recipients at a time)

  • LinkedIn Sharing - Publish directly to LinkedIn as a post or featured item

Sharing adds visibility and credibility to your achievements; especially on platforms like LinkedIn where professional proof matters.

3. Submitting a Change Request

Mistakes happen; maybe your name was misspelled or your credential shows the wrong grade. Instead of reaching out via email and waiting indefinitely, Wauld gives you a structured Change Request system.

  • Submit a request directly from the credential page on desktop, mobile, or tablet

  • Provide a subject, detailed explanation, and optionally upload documents (PDF, JPG, PNG, DOCX – up to 10MB)

  • Track your request status live from the dashboard

  • Get notified once your request is approved, rejected, or fulfilled

4. Verifying Credentials

Received a credential and want to confirm its authenticity? Or maybe you shared a credential and someone wants to verify it?

Wauld’s verification layer ensures:

  • Each credential link leads to a secure, tamper-proof record

  • Organizations and third parties can confirm authenticity without logging in

  • Recipients can verify their credentials

5. Changing Password

Whether you've forgotten your password or just want to keep your account secure, Wauld provides a secure password management system.

  • Reset via the "Forgot Password" flow on the login screen

  • Or change it anytime from your profile settings

  • Passwords must meet strong security standards (e.g., uppercase, special character, minimum length)

6. Editing Your Profile

As a recipient, you can easily view and update your profile details; like your first and last name; directly from your dashboard.

Wauld gives recipients full control of their digital credentials; across desktop, mobile, and tablet. Wherever you are, your credentials are always secure, accessible, and ready to share.

It’s your achievements, your story, and your professional proof; available anytime, anywhere.
