Pay-As-You-Go Contract

Pay for each seal or certificate as it is issued for a high level of flexibility with no upfront commitment or costs.

Bulk Purchase Contract

Combine seal and certificate purchases for excellent volume pricing and our highest discounted rates.

Authorised Partner Program

You determine an annual commitment level and use your account credit on any seal or certificate product throughout the contract term, including multi-year and multi-licence options.

The more you sell, the more support VeriSign provides to you and your customers. Sell any combination of VeriSign Trust Seal, SSL Certificates or Code Signing Certificates to determine your program tier and to qualify for higher support levels as your business grows.
