# Differences Between Open Badges 2.0 and 3.0

Open Badges are available in several versions. Our service supports both the Open Badges 2.0 and Open Badges 3.0 standards.  
Because each version uses a different system, please refer to the information below.

#### 【Open Badges 2.0 Wallet System】

 You can manage badges issued under the Open Badges 2.0 standard. 

#### 【Open Badges 3.0 Wallet System】

 You can manage badges issued under the Open Badges 3.0 standard. 

The Open Badges 3.0 Wallet System also allows you to manage badges that you have already received through the Open Badges 2.0 Wallet System.  
To manage badges you previously received through the Open Badges 2.0 Wallet System,  follow the instructions on the “[Adding an Email Address](https://support.openbadge.net/en-us/add-email-address?hsLang=en-us)” page and add all email addresses that you used with the Open Badges 2.0 Wallet System.

※To register an account for either system, you must first have been issued an Open Badge supported by that system.
