How it sells itself

Certificate of Analysis helps you upload and organize lab certificates, link them to products and variants, and show them on the online store. You can upload PDFs, assign a public lookup code to each certificate, and mark records as latest or archived when new tests are published.

Tired of answering "where's the lab result for my batch?" over and over? COA Vault puts every certificate on your storefront so customers find it themselves, by typing their batch or lot number or scanning a QR code. Fewer support emails, faster answers, more trust at checkout. Upload your COAs, link each to a batch, and the app builds the lookup page, theme block, and print-ready QR codes.

Key points
  • Certificates Archive with Powerful Search
  • Product page CoA display
  • Public Certificate Verification
  • Shareable certificate pages
  • Upload COA PDFs and organize them by product and batch or lot number
  • Print-ready QR codes (PNG + SVG) that open the right certificate when scanned
  • Storefront lookup block — add it to any page in the theme editor, no code
  • Lookup analytics, including not-found searches that reveal missing batches

How Shoplist compares apps

Reviews, ratings, plans, features and integrations come from each app’s Shopify App Store listing. 28-day figures are labeled when estimated, and a figure that is missing or estimated never decides who leads.
