Questions
What does a wildcard certificate cover?
Every name one level below your domain, for example www.example.com, shop.example.com and mail.example.com. It does not cover names two levels down, such as a.shop.example.com. The certificate checker shows exactly which names a certificate covers.
How do I order one?
Create a CSR whose common name begins *. for example *.example.com, and paste it into the order. Wildcards are validated by email or a DNS record, not by a file on the website.
How long does an order last?
Every order covers 12 months. Certificates themselves now last up to 200 days, so you reissue free of charge during your 12 months. We email you before each expiry.
