It is very fast, between 5 and 180 minutes, after completing the steps required to activate the service registration. Some services are automatically activated upon receipt of payment if you have another active service.

Domain-validated SSL certificates are certificates that are verified against the domain registrar. There is no organizational identification information for these certificates and therefore they provide the minimum level of security. Commonly they are not used for commercial purposes, but use them for internal purposes or generic sites. Visitors to a website with DV certificates cannot validate, through the certificate, whether the business on the site is legitimate and therefore often do NOT trust this type of certificate. These types of certificates are recommended to be used where security is not a concern, such as protected internal systems where internal customers or employees already know the established trust of the organization.

The certificate issuance time depends on the type of certificate and the certifying entity.

They provide the highest level of trust and security. It is used by most of the world's leading organizations. They have found that switching from OV to EV certificates increases online transactions and improves customer trust. It is no longer a luxury but a necessity. Sites secured with an EV SSL Certificate display the name of the organization in the certificate detail to quickly reassure visitors that the organization's legal and physical existence has been verified in accordance with strict industry standards. EV certificates restore the trust that users have for a secure website. The criteria for issuing EV certificates are defined in the Extended Validation Guidelines and provide a verification process that is much more stringent than for OV certificates. In addition to improving trust through the strictest authentication process, EV certificates trigger a green bar visible in modern browsers to distinguish the secure site from others. It is extremely difficult to spoof or spoof an EV-enabled site, because even if the web content can be duplicated, the green bar cannot be activated without a trusted EV certificate.

Organizational SSL certificates are trusted for business transactions. Organizations are strictly authenticated by real agents against company registration databases hosted by governments. Documents can be exchanged and staff can be contacted during validation to prove right of use. Therefore, OV certificates contain legitimate business information. This is the standard type of certificate required on a commercial or public website. OV certificates conform to RFC X.509 standards and therefore contain all the information necessary to validate the organization.

To certify a website (accessible with or without www) the recommended certificates are "Sectigo Essential" and "GeoTrust RapidSSL".
