ABOUT Certino

Built by people who've run the numbers.

Certino is the calculation layer for hypo tax, gross-ups and shadow payroll. It was founded by practitioners who spent years fixing these calculations by hand, and decided there had to be a better way.

OUR STORY

The rules were clear. The spreadsheets weren't.

Richard McBride spent more than 25 years leading global mobility and employment tax programmes. Every month he saw the same thing: the tax rules were well understood, but the same numbers were rebuilt in spreadsheets, by different people, in different ways.

In 2017 he founded Certino to do it once, properly. One engine that applies the rules the same way every time, and shows its workings.
