Digital Certificates

An SSL certificate protects the personal data your customers share with your website — passwords, card details and identity information — and shows them the padlock that says your site is genuine. Getting one is the simplest way to raise customer confidence in your online business. Lakpura sells DigiCert SSL certificates, starting at USD 36 a year.

Why buy an SSL certificate?

• Rock-solid security — DigiCert certificates provide up to 128-bit or 256-bit encryption for your visitors' data.
• Customer confidence — many customers look for the padlock before handing over sensitive details.
• Better search rankings — Google ranks websites secured with SSL higher, so a certificate matters if you are serious about your online business.
• Secure Seal — every certificate comes with a site seal that reminds visitors your site is protected.
• 30-day money-back guarantee — on every SSL certificate, no questions asked.

Which certificate do I need?

Standard SSL suits most websites with a single domain. Premium SSL secures one domain with a much higher relying-party warranty (USD 500,000). Wildcard SSL covers a domain and all of its sub-domains (shop.example.com, mail.example.com and so on) with one certificate. EV SSL uses extended validation, the strictest check of the organisation behind the site, and carries a USD 1,750,000 warranty.

How long is a certificate valid?

Under current industry rules, a single SSL certificate can be valid for at most 200 days. During your 1-year or 2-year plan you can re-issue the certificate within those 200 days to extend its validity, so your site stays covered for the whole term.

Frequently asked questions

What is an SSL certificate?

An SSL certificate is a digital certificate issued for a domain by a central authority called a Certificate Authority. To be issued one, you buy the certificate and then complete a verification process run by the Certificate Authority.

Why should I buy an SSL certificate?

An SSL certificate does two things: it encrypts the information sent from your visitor's browser to your website, and it authenticates your website's identity. Together these protect your customers and increase their trust in your online business, which matters most when visitors log in with passwords or enter sensitive details such as card numbers.

Do SSL certificates work in all browsers?

Yes. Our SSL certificates are compatible with all major browsers.

Can I upgrade my SSL certificate?

Upgrades and downgrades are not supported at the moment. If you need a different certificate, you can buy a new one and install it on the same web server as the old one.

Do I need technical expertise to set up an SSL certificate?

It is not difficult, but installing an SSL certificate does involve following a series of steps. Step-by-step guides are available in the knowledge base on services.lakpura.com, and our support team can help.
