**Opayo Certificate Update: Migration to DigiCert on 27th May**
As Entrust certificates will no longer be supported, **Opayo will be migrating all our certificates to DigiCert**. The planned migration date for the new DigiCert certificates is **27th May**.
You can learn more about the background of this change here:

**Who is DigiCert?**
DigiCert is a leading Certificate Authority (CA) globally recognized for secure and reliable digital certificates. In fact, DigiCert previously held Opayo's certificates around four years ago.
**Do I need to take any action?**
Please ensure that your systems **trust DigiCert root and intermediate CA certificates**.
If you're not sure, we recommend consulting your **developer**, **technology partner**, or **shopping cart provider** to confirm your trust store includes DigiCert.

Let me know if you need a more technical checklist or a client email draft.
—
### **1. On a Linux Server (e.g., Ubuntu/Debian/CentOS)**
Run the following command to search the certificate store:
grep -i digicert /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt
Or check with:
ls /etc/ssl/certs | grep -i digicert
If using `update-ca-certificates` (Debian/Ubuntu):
sudo update-ca-certificates --fresh
—
### **2. On Windows Server**
1. Open **MMC** (Run `mmc.exe`)
2. Go to **File > Add/Remove Snap-in**
3. Add **Certificates** for **Computer Account**
4. Navigate to:
– **Trusted Root Certification Authorities > Certificates**
– **Intermediate Certification Authorities > Certificates**
5. Look for certificates issued by **DigiCert** (e.g., *DigiCert Global Root CA*, *DigiCert SHA2 High Assurance Server CA*)
—
### **3. For PHP-based Servers**
If you're using **cURL or OpenSSL**, check the CA bundle path in your `php.ini`:
curl.cainfo = "/path/to/cacert.pem"
openssl.cafile = "/path/to/cacert.pem"
Open the `cacert.pem` file and search:
grep -i digicert cacert.pem
If not found, download the latest CA bundle from:
https://curl.se/ca/cacert.pem
—
### **4. For Node.js Applications**
If you're using Node.js, it usually inherits the OS trust store. But you can also manually verify trusted CAs by inspecting the Node.js CA file:
console.log(require('https').globalAgent.options.ca);
Or check with OpenSSL:
openssl s_client -connect example.com:443 -showcerts
Look for DigiCert entries in the certificate chain.
—
### **5. On cPanel/WHM or Shared Hosting**
Contact your hosting provider or check **WHM > SSL > Manage SSL Hosts**. You may also check the **CA Bundle** under installed SSLs to see if DigiCert is listed.
