What is Certify’em?

Certify’em lets you leverage the power of Google Forms to create

online certifications and email custom certificates to exam-takers.
Certify’em is an ”Add-on” for Google Quizzes.
It extends the functionality of Quizzes- send a certificate when
someone passes- keep certification records.
Gmail account is required to use Certifyém as it is build upon Google
forms.
A regular Gmail account user can send up to 100 certificates per day.
Paid G Suite account user can send up to 1,500 certificates per day.
After the limit, exam stops accepting responses for that day and gives
the message: ”This exam is not currently accepting submissions.
Please check back again later.”
Exam link activates again next day.
