Price Comparison for High Assurance SSL Certificates
High Assurance SSL Certificates are generally Organization Validation or Extended Validation SSL certificates that assert strong organizational identity and come backed by generous warranties and additional features. Some sites just want encryption, and that's fine. But if you've got to have an SSL certificate, why not leverage it for all it's worth?
On today's internet people expect to know who they're doing business with and SSL certificates are one of the few ways that a website can authoritatively assert its identity or the identity of the organization that runs it. By undergoing a comprehensive validation from a trusted entity like one of the Certificate Authorities listed below, you can provide your customers with the maximum level of assurance, which inevitably leads to better conversions and more profits.
Below you'll find a comparison of some of our most popular High Assurance SSL Certificates. Not just their prices, but their warranties and any add-ons they may come with. The benefit of selling certificates from multiple CAs is that we can be objective, which is why we've put together this comparison for you.
