Sales/Order Processing
We are a very important DigiCert, Comodo Platinum Partner and we purchase SSL certificates in extremely large quantities from them. We sign extensive contracts and make long-term commitments because we have created the vehicle to sell & manage a lot of their products; therefore we are able to buy their products at bulk rates. But not only are we able to deliver the exact same products at discounted prices, we are what is called a Value-Added Reseller (VAR), which means we are able to also provide more value to a customer such as; superior customer service & technical support that the bigger companies are not necessarily set-up to do for high volumes of SSL.Hide
You will need your CSR and certain required documents depending on the certificate you purchase. You can get your CSR from your hosting provider or your system administrator. Once, you purchase the certificate and process your order. You will then need to send your necessary documents to the respective company. For Domain Validated Certificates you will receive an Approver or DCV email to prove you are the domain owner. For OV & EV certificates, you will need to provide the documentation requested.Hide

Domain Validation (DV) DV or a Domain Validated Certificate is a certificate that only requires you to verify that you are the owner of your domain. This occurs by receiving an email that is sent to the WHOIS information or email addresses belonging to that domain to verify that you own the rights to use the domain. This happens immediately for fast issuance, but sometimes lacks trust because almost anyone can get a DV certificate issued. Here are our DV certs: www.thesslstore.com/products/cheap-ssl-certificates.aspx
Organizational Validation (OV) For Organization Validated (OV) Certificates, the issuing Certificate Authority (CA) validates your organization information to make sure you are an actual organization. They verify the Organization Name, Physical Address, and Phone Number. This data must match with the WHOIS information and also a public Government Information website or an approved Third-Party Website before being issued. OV certificates add more trust to a consumer because they are assured that they are doing business with a real corporate entity. Here are our OV certs: www.thesslstore.com/products/high-assurance-certificates.aspx
Extended Validation (EV) EV or Extended Validation Certificates (also known as "Green Bar" Certificates) are recognized and known as the most highly trusted type of SSL certificate. During the EV verification process, the issuing vendor or CA totally verifies that you are a legitimate business and in good standing above and beyond an OV verification process. Once this process is successfully completed and your EV SSL is issued, all of the browser indicators will be activated on your site to let your customers know that you can be trusted. The most important indicator that becomes active is the "Green Bar" in a user's web browser. Research shows that people are aware of the green bar and view it as being trustworthy. EV certificates are the only certificates where potential ROI exists…because more trust means more confidence; which could mean they are more likely to buy from you. You can learn more about EV certs here: www.thesslstore.com/support/ev/extended-validation-ev.aspx

In some cases where your company cannot be validated in “government authority” resources, you may be required to provide a Government Issued Business Credential, aka “Proof of Right” (POR); which is a doc that gives a company the right to do business in that name. Examples of acceptable documents include, but are not limited to:
For more information, please refer to https://thesslstore.com/knowledgebase/ssl-extended-validation/ or ask a friendly SSL Expert of ours. Hide
Certificate Signing Request (CSR)
A CSR or Certificate Signing Request is the encrypted text that must be generated from the server that which the certificate is going to be used on. It contains the information that will be included in your certificate such as your organization name, common name (domain name), locality, and country. A private key is also created at the same time you create the CSR. You can learn more about your CSR at: www.thesslstore.com/support/howto-generate-csr.aspxHide
Most people contact their hosting company or System Administrator to generate the CSR. If you are aware of your server details; you can check the following links to learn how to generate your CSR for your particular server, www.thesslstore.com/support/howto-generate-csr.aspxHide
According to the issuing CAs and other security guidelines, we can only send the Approval Email to the email address on the WHOIS record or to one of the following email address: admin@domain.com administrator@domain.com webmaster@domain.com hostmaster@domain.com postmaster@domain.com For more information regarding this, you can check out this: https://wiki.mozilla.org/CA:Problematic_Practices#Email_ Address_Prefixes_for_DV_Certs Hide

It means that your order has been marked for an additional security review by GeoTrust. As part of GeoTrust's ongoing commitment to prevent fraud and protect data, they randomly flag some orders for an additional security review. Unfortunately, this order can't be fulfilled until GeoTrust completes this manual security review. Most orders are quickly processed within 24 hours, but sometimes on the weekends they might take a little longer than 24 hours.Hide
