One verified licence.
A whole school transformed.
The Blastbeat Licence is our flagship digital product. Each licence is uniquely numbered, audit-trailed, SDG-mapped and issued under the charter of Climate Actions Now group — aligned with W3C Verifiable Credentials, ISO 9001 quality processes, and an independent verification registry.
Four programmes. One verification standard.
Click any certificate to enlarge it and see the W3C Verifiable Credentials JSON it would generate. Each programme has its own colour, but every licence shares the same credibility framework.

The certificates above are illustrative samples for display. All licence IDs, hashes, DIDs and dates shown are synthetic. On issuance, every Blastbeat Licence is rendered as a printable PDF, a web-verifiable URL and a machine-readable JSON record using the W3C Verifiable Credentials data model.
Twelve credibility markers. One licence.
Every Blastbeat Licence carries the same twelve markers. They’re what turn a piece of paper into a verifiable credential a school, an auditor, a sponsor and a journalist can all trust.

Three classes (A, B, C) with explicit colour-coding, scope and entitlements. No ambiguity about what was bought.

One scan or one click resolves to the live registry record. Anyone — sponsor, parent, journalist — can confirm in seconds.
What sponsors and schools usually ask.
Is the Blastbeat Licence a legal contract?
Yes. The certificate is the visual artefact, but it is backed by a formal written agreement between Climate Actions Now group and the school or sponsor. The licence ID on the certificate is the contract reference.
How is a licence verified?
Three ways: scan the QR code, visit blastbeat.education/verify with the licence ID, or fetch the JSON record (W3C Verifiable Credentials format) directly. Any of these will confirm the licence is active, the holder, the dates, and the scope.
What happens at the end of the licence year?
The licence is renewed (a new ID is issued), revoked (if terms are breached), or marked “completed” with the year’s impact report attached to the registry record. Holders keep their historical certificates as a permanent credential.
Can a sponsor revoke a licence?
No. Only Climate Actions Now (the issuer) can revoke. Sponsors fund the licence and are named on it — they don’t hold revocation rights, which protects the school’s programme continuity.
Does the licence carry tax benefits in South Africa?
Sponsor-Adopted licences include eligibility documentation for SARS Section 18A and B-BBEE Socio-Economic Development scoring. Each sponsor’s tax position depends on their own structure — we provide the paperwork; the sponsor’s auditor finalises the position.
Why call it “Product 01”?
Because the licence is the product. Everything else — modules, events, reports, sponsorship packages — either feeds it (Adopt-A-School) or flows from it (MACC, FootBeat, the impact report). One licence per school per year is the unit Blastbeat is sold and measured by.
