SSL Certificates
Comodo SSL Certificates – InstantSSL or PositiveSSL
1 Year certificate validation
InstantSSL $50/yr.
PositiveSSL $150/yr.
We offer two certificates. The Comodo PositiveSSL certificate is the lowest priced of the two validated certificates, and is recommended for any sites collecting sensitive information such as passwords or contact information. If your site is accepting credit card information we recommend the InstantSSL for higher security levels and transaction warranty.
The Comodo InstantSSL certificate is recommended for higher e-commerce traffi, provides a per transaction warranty, stronger encryption algorithms, and a site seal for your browser.

This Warranty is only payable if the transaction involved an amount no greater than the Max Transaction Value identified below for the relevant certificate type. Only up to $1,000 may be paid out per transaction, and the aggregate warranty amount paid out per SSL certificate (the "Payment Limit") is as set forth below.
