Digital encryption from the best-known certificate authorities

SSL Certificates

Help protect your customers’ websites or web shops with SSL certificates for increased security.
SSL certificates create encrypted connections between web browsers and servers. They secure the transfer of sensitive data and help create trust between parties. Realtime Register offers certificates from the best-known certificate authorities: Sectigo, DigiCert, PerfectSSL, GeoTrust and Thawte. We offer all types of certificates, including wildcard certificates (for sub-domains) and multi-domain certificates. In our SSL Manager dashboard you can see volumes, statuses, expiry dates, communications with the Certificate Authorities and more.

Opportunities for your business 

The demand for SSL certificates is booming. Increased regulations, such as the GDPR, help create awareness among consumers and call for improved focus on security by website owners. As the internet is moving towards “security by default”, non-https connections are no longer trusted by the major web browsers. Search engines are also giving websites with SSL a boost in their ranking. And certificate authorities have responded to free alternatives, such as LetsEncrypt, by creating their own selection of free certificates. All this means, now is the time to start selling more SSL certificates.

  • Prevent Phishing By having an SSL certificate you can prevent malicious people to duplicate your website and abuse it for phishing purposes.
  • Protect customer data A secure connection ensures that the data is encrypted between a server and browser and therefore keeps your data private and secure.

  • More Revenue An Extended Validation (EV) SSL certificate will result in more traffic and sales due to the visibility of your organization in the certificate.
  • SEO boost For over 10 years, HTTPS has become a ranking signal for SEO. Using an SSL certificate is going to give your website a ranking boost.

SSL certificate types

SSL Certificates come in three types of validation: Domain Validation (DV), Organisation Validation (OV), and Extended Validation (EV).
Next to the types of validation, you can choose from a Single Domain, Multi-Domain, or Wildcard certificate.


Not Secure

Since 2018, browsers have shown security warnings where they clearly display when a website does not have an SSL certificate. Gradually they have increased the security warnings, and the current versions display a "Not Secure" warning.
Not having an SSL Certificate can lead to a decrease in visitors to your website.


Domain Validation (DV) 

Domain Validation (DV) SSL certificates offer a robust encryption strength up to 256-bit, and are issued within minutes. DV certificates are only validated via the domain name, so no paperwork or documentation is required for the validation of your organization.


Organization Validation (OV)

Organization Validation (OV) SSL certificates bring an additional level of online trust to customers and visitors by authenticating their business identity. Organizations must prove it owns the domain name by doing a verification of the owner of the domain name, and confirm that it is a legally registered business.

The additional level of validation makes OV Certificates an ideal option for a public-facing website, representing their companies and organizations. In the details of an OV SSL certificate, there is more information displayed such as Organization, Country, Locality, and the common name. The same information is also reflected in the Site Seal.


Extended Validation (EV)

Extended Validation (EV) SSL certificates provide the highest form of verification of an SSL Certificate, therefore maximizing the trust of the website vistor. This makes EV SSL certificates ideal for e-commerce websites, resulting in fewer cancelled purchases, high trust in the provided payment options, more orders and reservations. 
The verification of an EV SSL certificate is far more extensive in comparison with a DV or OV SSL certificate. With an EV SSL certificate, the verification process consists of:

  • Domain name verification
  • Organization verification
  • Telephone verification (Must be completed by an authorized person within the organization)
  • Subscriber Agreement

The advantage of the EV SSL Certificate is that the organization name is displayed by clicking on the lock pad, and provides additional details within the certificate like the business category. EV SSL certificates are recommended for all business and enterprise websites. With an EV SSL certificate all information about your organization is also reflected in the Site Seal.

Site Seal

Most Certificate Authorities (CAs) also supply a Site Seal which can display the name of the CA and the type of SSL certificate. Having a Site Seal proves that the CA has verified the domain and issued the certificate for the domain. A site seal is offered for all types of certificates. On the left, the "Trust Seal" from DigiCert is displayed.

Realtime Register’s SSL Transfer Service helps hosting providers and digital agencies consolidate their SSL portfolio into one centralized platform.
