Ordering DV certificates
The certificate lifecycle begins when you log into your account and request a DV certificate for a domain. You can only request certificates authorized for your account (in other words, for your company/organization).
Important
On October 31, 2023, DigiCert will no longer sell 4 – 6-year Multi-year Plans for TLS and VMC certificates. We will continue to offer 1, 2, and 3-year Multi-year Plans.
Prerequisites
Before you can begin ordering DV SSL/TLS certificates, your sales representative must enable DV certificates for your CertCentral account. Then, in the left main menu, go to Settings > Product Settings. On the Product Settings page, you can enable the DV certificate products.
