BulkCertPDF’s pricing page, as we read it
What BulkCertPDF does
Turns an Excel or CSV attendee list into named PDF certificates, with 8 designs, your logo and signatures.
The Batch Pass suits a one-off class; Pro suits regular courses
Free is enough to test the layout on a small group, but it caps you at 25 certificates a month and adds a watermark. If you issue certificates a few times a year, the $19 Batch Pass covers up to 500 for a week and costs less than a month of Pro. Pro at $29 a month pays off when you run batches every month; the yearly price of $199 is less than seven monthly payments.
How to actually use BulkCertPDF
Open bulkcertpdf.com, upload your attendee list as Excel or CSV, pick one of the 8 designs, map the columns to the certificate fields and add your logo and signatures. The page says the result is a ZIP of named PDF certificates. We did not upload a list or create certificates.
Distilled from BulkCertPDF's own homepage and pricing page, read on 11 November 2026 with research prepared in November 2026. BulkCertPDF is an affiliate partner of ours through Lemon Squeezy. We have not used the product ourselves.
