Previous Notices:
  • 11-Sep-2026 – Support Notice – Scheduled Platform Upgrade: To support ongoing improvements to essCert's infrastructure and platform capabilities, we will be performing a scheduled platform upgrade on 19 September 2026 from 07:00 - 15:00 UTC (08:00 - 16:00 BST / 03:00 - 11:00 EDT). During this time, essCert will be temporarily unavailable. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to enhance your service experience.
  • 16-Apr-2026 – New essCert service URL: As part of our ongoing platform modernisation and security enhancements, the essCert service has been upgraded to a newer technology stack to ensure improved security, performance, and long term supportability. As part of this upgrade, effective 22 April 2026, the essCert service URL will change to https://esscert.idt.ice.com. No action is required from users: The previous essCert URL (https://www.tradecert1.net) will automatically redirect to the new address. Note: If you have embedded the essCert login URL (https://www.tradecert1.net/cas/login) within your own website or systems, we recommend updating it to https://esscert.idt.ice.com/cas/login. While the redirect will continue to function, updating your configuration is advised to align with the upgraded platform.
