Press Guild

Free digital credentials for responsible documentation.

ABandito credentials help contributors identify themselves with a clean digital ID, a verification page, and an optional path to physical cards.

Create Digital IDPhysical Cards

Credential model

Free digital ID, optional physical card.

  • Digital Press Guild credentials are free.
  • A credential identifies an ABandito contributor; site access remains subject to owner, site, and local rules.
  • Physical cards are optional keepsakes/tools and should be handled as physical goods, not paid app features.
  • Any physical-card markup should be disclosed as stewardship funding for monitoring, smoke detection, and preservation support.

Optional physical cards

Print-on-demand, not a paywall.

Printful

API supports private tokens and OAuth; likely useful for custom fulfillment workflows.

Printify

REST API can manage shops, products, and orders for a merchant account.

Specialty ID-card vendors

May offer better PVC/card-stock formats, but API availability must be checked before choosing.

The planned flow is: free digital credential first, optional physical card order second, transparent cost-plus-stewardship pricing, and a vendor adapter that sends print-ready front/back artwork only after the user confirms shipping and payment outside the digital credential itself.

Comparator notes: press-pass templates and POD badge makers commonly use a strong PRESS band, logo, full name, photo, role, credential number, and verification marker; ABandito follows that familiar pattern while keeping access rules in the pledge and verification flow.
