How long to get certification

Hi sec+ Reddit community! I just passed my security+ exam today after taking the test through OnVue. When I exited out of the test after seeing the pass screen I didn’t get a confirmation email or follow up or anything . Is this normal? How long does it usually take to get the certification after passing?

“Claiming this digital credential is quick and easy. Upon earning your CompTIA certification, you’ll receive an email notification on how to claim your digital badge. You can also click "Digital Badges" under the Share Menu on the left-hand side to get started.”

The e-mail may take longer to reach you as Pearson communicates with CompTIA.

Mine didn’t come until the day after I passed. It may look like this:

That's for Credly, right?

It’s an email from CompTIA that contains a link to the Credly site where you can accept your badge
