Frequently Asked Questions

Are there any User Guides available?

We have various guides available on the Tutorials page, as well as a comprehensive help manual in-the-works.

Will it take a long time to learn the system?

No!  Company Registers is very easy to use and we’re always here to help if you do get stuck.

How many users from my firm can access the registers?

You can set up as many users as required, each with their own login at no extra cost.

Are you a part of CIPC or affiliated with CIPC?

No, we use BizPortal for our data import but we are not a part of CIPC. We do not control company registrations, we only provide the registers for those entities.

Does a Company still need a traditional hard copy register?

The New Companies Act makes provision for the Company register to be kept in electronic form. Our on-line registers are all you will need.

What are the fees?

R135 per Entity, per year, or R10,500 for Unlimited entities, per year. The amount paid will ensure your register is securely stored for a year from payment date. Upon expiry, you will need to pay again to renew the entity and access it. You can also purchase credits that will automatically assign to the next expiring Entity.

How do I make payment?

All payments are conducted via PayFast or EFT within the system, under the “My Fees Due” page.
