FAQs

They have been scanned, digitised and uploaded to demonstrate how DigiClerk allows stamp collectors to display their collection.  Displayed to a selected global audience. The community of stamp collectors.

We intend to develop a number of further features of DigiClerk and one of those will be the ability to trade stamps using an electronic wallet. Members will then be able to indicate that their stamps are for sale. Another feature will involve the use of AI to identify stamps and confirm which set they belong to.

However, we do not want to get ahead of ourselves and invent something that satisfies only us.  We need the DigiClerk Stamp Collection to satisfy you and therefore, we seek Founder Members, to fund and steer the development of the DigiClerk Stamp Collection with a once in a lifetime payment.

How do I upload stamps?

Here is a summary of how to upload stamps.  We are in the process of producing how to guides for Members.

Before you read this answer, you might want to watch this short video about uploading stamps.

There are two routes for the process:

1. App – You can capture an image of the stamp using either the DigiClerk (DC) app on your phone, or
2. CamScan –  via a digital camera or scanner.

App – The DC phone app captures the image and uploads the image directly onto DC and readies it for you to input all the relevant information about the stamp.

CamScan – Using a camera or scanner creates one extra step in the process because the digitised image is uploaded onto your files storage system on your pc and then you pick the image from there.

In our experience the CamScan process produces the best quality image.  However, this depends on the quality of the phone’s camera and the steadiness of your hand!

This slide is taken directly from the ‘how to’ guide for the Stamp Collection, currently being written.  DC is producing a number of ‘how to’ guides to assist Members and here is a link to the how to upload stamps video.

Why isn’t DigiClerk free?

Because:

• DigiClerk provides a unique platform to share digitised records.  Yes, some elements are similar to other platforms but a large amount of the technology behind DigiClerk has not been applied to collections.  So, we are not the same.
• We will use the information that you provide about yourself and your interests to help enhance your user experience (UX) of the platform, not to give or sell to third parties nor attract advertisers.
• We dislike platform adverts and do not want to annoy Members with pop up adverts.
• However, we will keep you informed of relevant things happing within the collections.  This will depend on how much information you give to us.
• DigiClerk is entirely self funded and has been boot strapped by the founders.  There are no large (or small) backers so, the platform has be self sustaining.
• We will not be coming back to users, who have signed up because it is for free, and announce that we now have to charge for the service or ask for donations.

These reasons are why DigiClerk isn’t free.

The Member fee of GBP 50 per year or Member + fee of GBP 80 per year is very modest, especially when this includes relevant taxes.  This excellent good deal is the Founder Member deal, a once in a life time fee of GBP 50 or GBP 80.  This save you money over the long term and helps fund and form DigiClerk at the outset.
