Secure Certificates - SSL

Secure your on-line transactions

A SSL signed certificate enables your customers to buy with confidence from your on-line shop. You can secure and encrypt your traffic with a self signed certificate but, by getting your server certificate signed by a recognised authority you are showing that you are a true legal entity. This signing process removes the warning messages user may experience if the certificate authority is not recognised as an official one.

Certificate Choices

• Extended Validation (from £499.99)
  EV is the highest level of authentication available with an SSL certificate. Your address bar turns green and the official name of the company is displayed next to the padlock. Companies are verified by the Certificate Authority prior to obtaining these.
• Organisation (from £139.99)
  Also known as business identity, this type of SSL gives a high assurance that the organisation actually exists.
• Domain (from £39.99)
  The most common type of certificate but offers the lowest form of authentication available. The entity is merely proving that they have the right to use the domain name of the website.
