Add more details
The Verisart Shopify App creates basic certificates by automatically populating the certificate with the product information such as product title, image and description.
To give your customers full confidence in the accuracy and authenticity of the certificate and their purchase, we recommend you provide additional details including:
Production year
Dimensions
Edition information (if relevant)
Production location
Current location
Inventory number
