Certify
How OTF certification currently works
Keep the ROCKVALID page open while you complete the selected provider's sandbox flow.
Upload your PDF
Select Upload PDF or drag one PDF into the browser window. ROCKVALID prepares a document preview.
Review the document
Check that the preview shows the correct, complete document. The final proof will relate to this exact PDF version.
Enter the test user's name
Enter the first and last name displayed for the provider: Tommy Sternen-Himmel for finAPI or John Sandbridge for TrueLayer.
For finAPI GiroIdent + Payment, the entered name must match the account-holder name returned by finAPI.
Choose a test bank
Open Choose a test bank and select the payment provider and demo flow you want to test. The current options are listed in the table below.
Start certification
Select Start certification. ROCKVALID opens the provider's sandbox in a separate window or redirects you to it, depending on the selected flow.
Complete the provider flow
Sign in with the sandbox credentials shown on the Certify page and complete the requested identity and/or payment steps. Do not close the original ROCKVALID page.
Wait for automatic certification
Once the required provider checks are confirmed, ROCKVALID creates the document fingerprints, associates the process data with the document and publishes the proof in the current blockchain test environment.
Download the certified PDF
When Certification complete appears, select Download certified PDF and save the file. This downloaded file—not the original upload—is the ROCKVALID document intended for verification.

Verify
Check the completed document
Verification uses the downloaded ROCKVALID PDF and compares it with its public cryptographic proof.
Switch to Verify
Return to the OTF demo and select Verify at the top.
Select the certified PDF
Upload the file downloaded at the end of certification. Verification begins after the document is selected.
Read the result
Check whether the document matches its proof and review the displayed name, timestamp and public blockchain record. Any subsequent modification of the certified PDF invalidates verification.
Do not rely on a screenshot of a verification result. Verify the actual ROCKVALID PDF whenever the result matters.
Meaning
What a successful verification shows
ROCKVALID can demonstrate
- A particular PDF version was processed.
- The certified PDF has remained unchanged.
- The recorded name was associated with the workflow.
- A matching public proof record exists.
- The record came from an authorised ROCKVALID issuer.
- The recorded process time can be displayed.
ROCKVALID does not automatically prove
- That every statement inside the PDF is true.
- That every required legal authority existed.
- That the document is lawful in every jurisdiction.
- That a prescribed notarised or qualified form is satisfied.
ROCKVALID is currently not a qualified trust service provider and does not provide a qualified electronic signature under eIDAS. Do not use the demo as a substitute for a legally prescribed signature or notarisation form.
Security & privacy
Use the demo carefully
Before certification
- Use only a document you are authorised to process.
- Review the complete PDF before continuing.
- Use only the displayed sandbox credentials.
- Check provider, account and payment details.
After certification
- Download the completed ROCKVALID PDF.
- Verify the downloaded file before sharing it.
- Keep your own copy of important documents.
- Verify the PDF again after receiving it from someone else.
The public blockchain proof uses cryptographic verification data; it does not publish the contents of your PDF. The demo is still under development, and provider flows or test environments may change.
Select a document. Complete the test provider flow. Download the ROCKVALID PDF. Verify the result independently.
