General Information

CertNow is a mobile app designed for UK landlords to manage property compliance. Store all your certificates (Gas Safety, EICR, EPC, etc.) in one place, receive automatic expiry reminders, and book qualified engineers when renewals are due.

Yes! CertNow is completely free to use. You can store unlimited certificates, manage multiple properties, and receive expiry reminders at no cost. We earn a small commission when you book an engineer through the app — this doesn’t affect the price you pay.

We’re planning to launch CertNow on iOS and Android in late 2026. Register your interest on our homepage to be notified as soon as we go live! In the meantime, you can already book gas engineers through our contact form.

The Compliance Ring is a visual health score dashboard that shows your portfolio’s overall compliance status at a glance. It tracks all your certificates — Gas Safety (CP12), EICR, EPC, and more — colour-coded by urgency. AI-powered suggestions tell you exactly what needs attention and when, so you can prioritise renewals across your entire portfolio.

CertNow is designed for UK landlords, whether you have one rental property or a large portfolio. It’s also useful for letting agents and property managers who handle compliance on behalf of landlords.

Certificates

CertNow supports all major landlord compliance certificates including:

  • Gas Safety Certificates (CP12)
  • Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICR)
  • Energy Performance Certificates (EPC)
  • Legionella Risk Assessments
  • Portable Appliance Testing (PAT)
  • Fire Safety Certificates
  • And more…

You can upload certificates by taking a photo with your phone’s camera or by uploading a PDF file. Our AI automatically extracts key information like expiry dates, certificate numbers, and engineer details.

Yes. We use industry-standard encryption to protect your data both in transit and at rest. Your certificates are stored securely in UK-based cloud infrastructure. We never share your documents without your permission.

Yes! You can generate a secure share link for any certificate. The link allows your tenant to view and download the certificate without needing a CertNow account. Share links expire after 30 days for security.

Reminders

When you upload a certificate, CertNow automatically detects the expiry date. We’ll send you push notifications and/or email reminders at intervals you choose — typically 90, 60, 30, 14, and 7 days before expiry.

Yes. You can choose which reminder intervals work best for you. Some landlords prefer early reminders (90 days) to plan ahead, while others only want notifications closer to the expiry date. You can also add custom reminder days.

CertNow supports push notifications on your phone, email notifications, and SMS alerts. You can enable or disable each channel in your notification settings.
