Certn’s Background Screening Gets $30M Boost

VICTORIA, BC April 20, 2023 – Today Certn, a leader in online background checks and identity verification, announced it secured an additional US$30M in Series B financing with over US$29.5M coming from Export Development Canada (EDC). This brings Certn’s venture funding total to over US$114M, including US$80M from Series B. This funding helps Certn expand its revolutionary background screening technology in EMEA and APAC markets.
