WildCard SSL certificates

A SSL/TLS Wildcard certificate is a single certificate with a wildcard character () in the domain name field. WildCard certificates allow unlimited security of subdomains under their main domain. An asterisk is inserted in front of the domain name (.domain.com), which functions as a wild card in the certificate, so browsers accept any valid characters in front of the domain instead of the asterisk. These certificates are very popular with server administrators because they make it easier to manage multiple subdomains. WildCard TLS certificates also significantly save the cost of acquiring and managing domain security on the server.

Features and Benefits of WildCard SSL Certificate

WildCard SSL Certificates

One WildCard SSL certificate can encrypt a single domain and all of its first-level sub-domains. There's no limit to what you can use sub-domains for: mail servers, FTP servers, members areas — whatever you want. Each subdomain is often a separate website. Thanks to the asterisk, the administrators don't have to worry about what sub-domains are on the server, he can add a new domain at any time, and secure HTTPS communication will always be ensured.

Secure Your Sites in Minutes

Obtaining and deploying the Domain Validated WildCard SSL certificate at SSLmentor is a matter of minutes. Just order, pay and confirm the validation e-mail. In addition, we offer easy certificate request generation (CSR) in the Control Panel, there is no need to solve the keys with the administrator or generate keys on the server.

Boost Search Rankings (SEO)

Secure HTTPS communication increases site rankings in search ranking algorithms. Google published this information on the blog as early as 2014. Although this is one of many criteria, an SSL certificate will give higher positions in search results for HTTPS secure sites over HTTP non-secure sites.

SSL Protects Integrity

SSL certificate protects against content injection by ISPs and other third parties. Without encryption, it's possible for others to alter your site and undermine its integrity. SSL certificates protect against this with strong industry-standard 256-bit symmetric encryption and 2048-bit signatures.

SSLmentor recommendation

The use of WildCard SSL certificates is very popular. Certificates make administrators' work easier and save costs when they need to secure a large number of sub-domains. Another advantage is the ability to secure the main domain without and with www for 2nd level domains (FQDN).

What you should know before you place an order.

WildCard SSL certificates

Depends on the selected type of certificate

  • Domain Validation (DV) - the fastest and most automated way to verify. The CA only verifies the existence of the domain before the certificate is issued. You can secure the website in few minutes with paperless process.
  • Organization Validation (OV) - OV certificates are more trustworthy than domain validation SSL certificates. In this type, the CA verifies domain ownership as well registered business documents and other legal documents related to business. It normally takes two to 5 days to issue a certificate. If the authority cannot confirm the legal, operational and physical existence of the company, the validity period is extended.

Domains Secured

WildCard SSL can secure unlimited sub-domains

Wildcard SSL certificates can secure your fully qualified domain name and its sub-domains.
In the case of a request to secure a 2nd level domain, i.e. .domain.com, a SAN extension will be added for a separate domain, i.e. https://domain.com. Thus, one WildCard SSL certificate will secure the website for the main domain and all its subdomains at the same time. On the other hand, in case of a requirement for security of subdomains of the 4th and n-th level, for example admin.domain3rdlevel.domain.com, it is always necessary to obtain a separate WildCard SSL certificate .domain3rdlevel.domain.com. This then again allows HTTPS security for unlimited domains at that level.

Multi-Year Certificates

We offer WildCard SSL certificates for up to 5 years in order to provide the lowest cost per year

As of 1 September 2020, Apple, Google and Mozilla browsers and devices do not accept new SSL/TLS certificates that have a lifetime of more than 398 days. To comply with the latest security requirements, multi-year SSL certificates are issued for 1 year (max. 398 days). You'll need to re-issue the certificate once per year. We'll send you email notifications starting 30 days before expiration. Of course, REISSUE is free of charge. Plus you can reissue your certificate at any time and as many times as you like!

Note i: Re-issue requires revalidation.
Note ii: You can insert new CSR or use last one during reissue.
Note iii: Once the certificate is issued, you can not shorten the validity period, request a refund of the unused period or change the domain name!
