Does the certification card come as a physical card or only digital? I prefer having a hard copy for my records.

Hi Ramesh, thank you for your question. Upon completion of the course, you will receive a digital certification card, and you may request a physical card directly through the PADI system for an additional fee if you would like a hard copy.
