for colleges, fests, NSS & NCC
Fest certificates out the same week — not next semester
Your registration sheet already has every name and event. Turn it into participation and winner certificates for the whole fest in one go — each with a QR code a recruiter can scan to check it's real.
- No sign-up
- Lists stay on your computer
- Hindi done right
- Pay once
Sound familiar?
The fest ends. The certificate backlog begins.
Certificates arrive months late
The organising committee graduates, the Canva file is on someone's laptop, and participants are still asking in the WhatsApp group.
Fake certificates hurt everyone
Edited PDFs of “winner” certificates turn up in placement files, and genuine winners lose out.
A new team every year
Subscriptions and logins tied to last year's coordinator's email. Nobody knows the password.
How Sanmaan helps
Made for student committees and faculty coordinators
Straight from Google Forms or Excel
Export the registration responses, paste them in, and use any column — Event, Position, College — on the certificate.
Verifiable for placements
With QR verification, each certificate carries a short ID. A recruiter scans it and sees Genuine — or Altered if someone edited it.
No account to hand over
There's no login. Next year's committee opens the site and starts. A Lifetime key can be kept in the department's email.
Named files, ready to send
Download a ZIP with one PDF per person, named
{Name} - {Event}, ready for a mail merge or the fest's Drive folder.

How the certificate team did it
- Chose “Ocean Tech” and wrote
{Position} — {Event}, TechNova 2026. - Added the college logo, the convenor's and the principal's signatures.
- Turned on QR verification and typed the college name as the organisation.
- Set file names to
{Name} - {Event}and downloaded the ZIP. - Published the college's issuer fingerprint on the fest website, so anyone can match it.
Sanmaan doesn't send emails itself. You download the ZIP and send the files with a mail-merge add-on that attaches a file per person, or share them in a Drive folder.
FAQ
Questions college committees ask
How do recruiters verify a certificate?
They scan the QR code with any phone camera, open the short link printed under it, or type the certificate ID at sanmaan.pages.dev/v/. They see Genuine, Altered, Revoked or Not found, with the name, event, date and your college.
What if we issue one by mistake?
Revoke it from the app. Anyone who checks it then sees “Revoked”.
Can different events have different designs?
Yes — make one batch per design. Most fests use one design with the event name filled in from the sheet, which keeps it consistent.
Can we use the fest's own Canva design?
Yes. Export it as PNG or JPG without names, upload it, and drag the fields onto it.
Who pays — students or the college?
Whoever runs the event. An Event Pass covers the whole fest for 30 days; departments that run events all year usually pick Lifetime.
