Exemption certificate management built for operational control, backed by real tax expertise.

AkuCert applies state-specific validation logic to flag certificates that are incomplete, expired, or missing required information. Validation rules update as state requirements change. For complex or research-intensive certificate questions, Clarus tax professionals are available to assist.

AkuCert is designed to integrate directly into your existing business systems through flexible APIs and connected workflows, allowing exemption certificate validation and management to occur within your normal operational processes.

AkuCert works with a wide range of ERP, accounting, ecommerce, billing, and customer management platforms. Common integrations include NetSuite, Sage Intacct, Microsoft Dynamics 365, Business Central, Epicor, QuickBooks, SAP, Salesforce, BigCommerce, WooCommerce, and more.

By connecting directly with AkuCalc and your core business systems, AkuCert helps apply valid exemptions automatically during sales tax calculation while maintaining centralized certificate records and validation history.

If your system supports API connectivity, our team can typically help integrate AkuCert into your environment.

AkuCert and AkuCalc are designed to work together as one connected system. When AkuCert has a valid exemption certificate on file for a customer, AkuCalc automatically applies the exemption during sales tax calculation — no double entry, no missed exemptions, and aligned audit records across both products.

AkuCert tracks certificate expiration dates and triggers renewal workflows automatically so certificates can be refreshed before they lapse. Renewal reminders, status tracking, and customer communication tools are built into the platform.
