Rotary Club Certificate Maker Service Above Self, Recognized Properly
Welcoming a new member, handing out a Paul Harris Fellow, or thanking your outgoing board? Build a certificate that looks the part in a few minutes, no design software needed.
Thanking your board this year?
A framed certificate is nice, but most of it ends up in a drawer. Give your outgoing officers and board members something they can actually put to use - a verified certificate they can post to LinkedIn, attach to a resume, or just share with family. Each one carries its own QR code, so nobody has to take their word for it.

Questions Clubs Actually Ask
How do I create a Rotary Club certificate?
Pick a Rotary template, enter your club details and the member's information, adjust the colors or logo if you'd like, then generate. Download it as a PDF or send it digitally.
Can I give my board members a certificate they can actually share?
Yes - every certificate comes with a QR code and verification link, so board members can post it to LinkedIn, attach it to a resume, or just email it to family. Anyone who checks it can confirm it's genuine.
What types of Rotary certificates can I create?
Membership certificates, Paul Harris Fellow recognition, Service Above Self awards, perfect attendance, officer and board appointments, youth program certificates, and one-off recognition awards.
Is this officially affiliated with Rotary International?
No. IssueBadge is an independent tool for building certificates - it isn't affiliated with or endorsed by Rotary International. If an award itself needs official Rotary approval (like a Paul Harris Fellow), that still goes through your district's process; this just handles the certificate your club issues.
Can I reuse a template for future certificates?
Yes - once you've set up your club's branding on a template, you can reuse it for the next batch instead of starting over each time.
Is there a free trial?
Yes, you can sign up and try it without a credit card. Once you're issuing certificates regularly, paid plans start at $14.99/month.
