I registered an EV certificate. Your organisation needs to be registered, for example at the Commercial Registry Office Zurich, and a lawyer registered at a bar (in our case at the Obergericht Zürich) who signs a legal opinion of your organisation's existence. You have to sign a declaration that you are a representative of the organisation and accept the terms of service of StartSSL.
The costs were, as far as I remember, $59 for the personal certification then $149 for EV.
Posted on the previous HN post, uses chkconfig in the install script so basically RHEL flavours only despite saying x64 - couldn't be bothered after that
StartAPI is the API, StartSSL offers a client - similar to LetsEncrypt which was the point of this submission. My point was that it billed itself as distro neutral - but failed.

But that was before StartEncrypt.
