How to Renew SSL

The process of renewal is almost the same as placing a New Order. You will need to submit new or original CSR code, pass the verification process and reinstall new files on the server. You may start renewal within 30-days before the expiration of your SSL. Please note, OV/EV validation takes longer and we suggest to renew before 15-days of expiration at least.

    Code Signing or PAC(S/MIME) SSL Renewal

    Both products do not have renewal procedure, you need to place new orders and start the process again. That is not our rule, but CAs.

    • "Ultra" renewal of OV/EV certs by GeoTrust, Thawte and DigiCert?

      Yeap! We are glad to say, that new renewal technology by DigiCert allows to renew most of OV/EV certs within less than 5 (five) seconds. No callback, no domain validation, no documents. The renewal order should be exactly the same as the original. That is huge step forward to remove pain during renewals.

    • Can I renew SSL purchased elsewhere, with you?

      Yes you can! We allow renewing an SSL certificate purchased from another provider. You can start the renewal process no earlier than the 30-day of SSL expiration period. We will add all days left from the original cert for any Digicert, GeoTrust, RapidSSL, Thawte, Sectigo, or GoGetSSL certificates.

    • Will I lose remaining days If I renew BEFORE 30-day of expiration?

      Yes you will! You need start the renewal process not earlier than 30-days before expiration and that is global rule.
