Sign up once, receive orders directly. Certus handles client acquisition, guaranteed payment and invoicing — you focus on translating.

How it works

From document to client, in a few clicks.

1

The client submits a request

They describe their document, languages and urgency. The price is set automatically by the platform.

2

You receive a notification

You are part of a selected group. Your fee is shown before you accept.

3

You accept the assignment

First come, first served. The client payment is secured in escrow as soon as you accept.

4

You deliver, you get paid

Upload the certified translation — the transfer is triggered automatically upon validation.

Guaranteed payment

Funds are held in escrow from the moment the order is placed. You are paid automatically upon delivery, no chasing required.

15 to 25% commission

No subscription, no fixed fees. The commission decreases as your experience grows — from 25% (Junior) to 15% (Expert).

Verified profile highlighted

Your sworn status, languages and Court of Appeal are showcased to clients.
