GeoTrust SSL certificates

GeoTrust is the DigiCert brand for the middle of the market: a well-known name and a high warranty at half or a third of the premium price. The certificates are issued on DigiCert infrastructure, so browser compatibility and validation speed are the same.

Wildcard and multi-domain versions are available, as are the Plan + Automate variants with automatic renewal. The price starts at €53.90 a year.

Why GeoTrust is a frequent choice

Why GeoTrust is a frequent choice

This is the middle of the market in the best sense: a recognised name, a high warranty and a price two to three times below the premium DigiCert lines.

  • A $500,000 warranty already in the DV certificate — most competitors offer $10,000 to $50,000 at that level.
  • The full set of formats: single-domain, wildcard, multi-domain and multi-domain wildcard.
  • Issued on DigiCert infrastructure — the same validation speed and compatibility.
  • Plan + Automate versions are available for automated renewal.

Which one to take

Which one to take

A short guide:

  • A company site without payments — QuickSSL Premium, validated in minutes.
  • A shop or a customer account area — True BusinessID: the company name goes into the certificate.
  • Many subdomains — the wildcard version of either line.
  • Several domains — True BusinessID Multi-Domain.
