Turn a results file or an awards list into certificates for every runner, player and squad, each with a QR code to a verified story page. Junior members’ pages stay private; adult members can show theirs to the world.
Your timing company sends a results file within hours of the last finisher. Upload it untouched, and every runner gets a certificate with their own time on it while their legs are still sore.
Ask your timing provider for the CSV or Excel export with bib, name, category, chip time and gun time. There’s no need to tidy it.
Match the name, category and time columns to the certificate. Pick chip time, gun time or both, and each runner’s own figure lands on their certificate.
Rows without a finish time, such as DNF or DNS, are flagged so you can leave them out. Long double-barrelled names shrink to fit their line.
Email each finisher their certificate and story link, or download every certificate as one ZIP and link to it from your results page.
Sizing it up: Free takes 25 names a month (most awards nights), Pro 300 (a fun run) and Business 1,000 (a mid-sized 10K), and only Business emails certificates in your club’s name. Compare plans

Chip time runs from the moment each runner crosses the start mat, so nobody loses the seconds spent shuffling to the line. It’s the time most runners quote.
certale.com/t/7RJ3K0WC“Thirty seasons, and I still love the six o’clock outings.”
The QR code on each certificate opens the athlete’s story page: the certificate, the club’s verified badge, a line in their own words and applause from teammates. Adult members decide who sees it. Under-18s never appear in public, whatever anyone clicks.
Gregory can drop the link into the club WhatsApp group or post it on LinkedIn. People without the link can’t find it.
Anyone can scan and check a club certificate for free, on every plan, without signing up.

With thanks to Sarah Mitchell for six seasons of Saturday mornings with the Under-9s, a mountain of orange slices and not one missed session. From every player and parent at Kestrel Park FC.

Awarded to Marta Kowalczyk, who passed her blue belt grading at Northgate Judo Academy on 19 September 2026 in front of a panel of three examiners.
Gradings come round several times a year. Save the design once and only the sheet changes each time.
Well played, Noah Williams! You took part in the Wexcombe Junior Tennis Festival 2026 and played five matches in one sunny Saturday. Same time next year?
At festivals where everyone plays, “participation” is the honest word. Keep “winner” wording for the finals.

Sample data. Wexcombe Rowing Club is a demo club, not a customer.Ask your timing provider for the results file, upload it to a finisher design and match the name, category and time columns. Every certificate then prints that runner’s own time. Choose chip time, gun time or both, and leave out rows with no finish time, such as DNF or DNS.
Yes, in two ways. Issue a certificate to each player from your squad list, with the team name on every one, or make a single team certificate with the whole squad printed on it. The Regatta design has a crew list for exactly that.
Never. When a batch is marked under-18, each certificate can be private (opened from its QR code) or shared by private link, but never public. It stays off the Wall of Tales and out of search engines. Parents and the club can still send the private link to family.
Put the award and the season in the title, then the player’s name and one or two specifics: appearances, goals, the moment people still talk about. Add the club crest and a signature from the chair or captain. The wording examples above are ready to copy.
