Including an authenticity certificate is optional on Miraqls, but it is highly recommended-especially for original artworks, handcrafted items, limited-edition pieces, sculptures, and any product where originality adds value. An authenticity certificate helps establish trust, confirms the product's origin, and enhances the buyer's confidence in the purchase.
While Miraqls does not mandate certificates, providing one can significantly improve the credibility of your brand and increase the perceived value of your artwork or craft.
