Which domain would you like to install your SSL Certificate on?
You can choose which of your domains will be covered by this SSL. Only one domain on a Shared hosting can have a Positive SSL certificate installed.
While Sectigo's Positive Wildcard SSL can cover multiple subdomains of your primary domain, Multi-Domain SSL can protect 3 of your domains! List the domain names you want to protect with SSL.
How long would you like to purchase this SSL for? (Term Length)
At this time, the term length of SSL is one year. Your certificate will secure your site for as long as you require, and when it expires, the certificate can be reissued to your domain.
Contact and Certificate Information
The information in the next steps will be used by Sectigo both to verify your purchase and create your certificate, so it is very important that this information is correct and matches the WHOIS information for your domain.
Contact Information
This section should be completed fully and correctly. For faster validation, HostGator or our SSL Partners may contact you by phone to verify your order and issue your certificate as quickly as possible.
Certificate Information
The information you enter in the Certificate Information section is incorporated into your Sectigo SSL certificate itself. All Sectigo SSL certificates require this information to be accurate. The Sectigo Extended SSL (also known as the "green bar" SSL for the color it displays in your visitor's browser) uses it to verify your business details for that extra level of trust for your site.
To make it easier for you, checking the box Same as contact information will automatically populate the Certificate Information contact fields with the identical information you placed in the Contact Information step.
Finalizing your Order
The last steps to complete your Sectigo SSL certificate order are to select the boxes acknowledging that this is a non-refundable charge and that you have read and agree to the Sectigo Subscriber Agreement.
Order SSL
Click Order SSL to place your Sectigo SSL certificate order. Your HostGator account will be invoiced for only the amount you authorized, and your Sectigo verification process will begin as soon as you click.
