SSL certificates are essential for webshops as they provide encrypted communication, secure online payments, and protection of sensitive data. Having an SSL certificate is crucial for a successful online store as it ensures authenticity, legitimacy, and meets global security standards.
An SSL certificate is a digital file that binds cryptographic key pairs to a website's details. It serves as a digital passport that verifies the authenticity and legitimacy of a website, establishing a secure connection between the server and the user's browser. SSL certificates enable encrypted communication, protecting sensitive data like login credentials, financial information, and personal details from unauthorized access and interception.
Nowadays is crucial to use encryption and SSL certificates for webshops - if you do not have an SSL certificate, no online payments will work in your shop, and furthermore, Google penalizes webshops without SSL certificates. In a nutshell, if you thrive to have a successful online store, it is necessary to meet global security standards.

TIP
Our certificates are renewed automatically.
2. Third-party certificates
Under specific circumstances, you may require a third-party SSL certificate.
If you for some reason wish to instal your own SSL certificate the settings need to be done on your side as we do not have access to your domain settings to validate it.
After that we have to activate your 3rd party SSL certificate - specifically, we will need to receive the Public part of the SSL certificate and SSL certificate PRIVATE key (all in text form in one or two files).
The public part of the SSL certificate:
SSL certificate PRIVATE key:
PLEASE TAKE ATTENTION
The format of the SSL certificate you will receive from a certification authority can be different. In case the file will be in the PFX file format, we are going to need a password that was used for the creation of this PFX file. Then we can extract the necessary data from the file.
