Get more KeyLocker signatures
How to get more signatures for your code signing certificate provisioned in DigiCert® KeyLocker
When provisioning your code signing certificate with its private key in DigiCert® KeyLocker, our cloud-based HSM, you get 1,000 signatures with your initial purchase (new or renewal); see Signature limit. However, you may purchase additional signatures for the certificate separately to enable additional signings.

The banner lets you know how many signatures remain and includes a link for purchasing more signatures.
Permissions

Items to note about signature purchase
Signatures are linked to the code signing certificate and its validity.
Signatures cannot be transferred to another certificate.
Remaining signatures are not carried over when you renew the certificate.
When your certificate expires, any remaining signatures expire.
If you revoke your certificate, any remaining signatures are nullified.
What if I don't see an option to purchase more signatures?
You must contact your DigiCert account manager to purchase more signatures. When approaching the signature limit for your code signing certificate in KeyLocker, you will also see a banner in your CertCentral account. This banner lets you know how many signatures remain and instructs you to contact your account manager to get more signatures.
Reminder
