SSL Dragon offers SSL/TLS certificates starting at $7.66/yr from Sectigo (formerly Comodo), DigiCert, RapidSSL, GeoTrust, GoGetSSL, and Thawte. Every certificate enables HTTPS and uses the same 256-bit encryption regardless of price. As an authorized reseller, we sell the same products at lower prices than buying directly from the Certificate Authority.
Cheap Domain Validation (DV) SSL Certificates
No paperwork needed. Most DV certificates are ready to install within five minutes of ordering.
DV is the entry point for SSL: you prove domain ownership, and the CA issues the certificate automatically. No business documents, no waiting. A cheap DV SSL certificate is the go-to for blogs, personal sites, startups, and single domain projects.
The price gap between DV brands comes down to warranty coverage and site seal options, not security level. A $7.66 certificate protects data in transit just as effectively as one costing ten times more, and every browser will show the same padlock and HTTPS indicator.
Cheap Wildcard SSL Certificates
One certificate covers your domain and every subdomain under it. Far more economical than securing each subdomain separately.
A cheap wildcard SSL certificate protects your main domain alongside subdomains like blog.example.com, shop.example.com, and mail.example.com in a single installation.
DV wildcards are the most affordable SSL option and go through the same quick domain check as standard DV. OV wildcards add business identity verification and take 1–2 business days.
One limitation to know: coverage applies to a single subdomain level only. *.example.com works, *.sub.example.com does not.
Cheap Multi-Domain SSL Certificates
Protect several unrelated domains with one certificate. Add optional wildcard coverage for subdomains.
Multi-domain certificates, also called SAN (Subject Alternative Name) certificates, let you secure domain1.com, domain2.com, and domain3.org simultaneously. Most products include 2–3 domains by default, with the ability to add up to 250 SANs on select certificates.
For businesses managing several websites, a cheap multi-domain SSL certificate eliminates the need to purchase SSL certificates individually for each domain. Multi-domain wildcard certificates go a step further, covering multiple domains and all their subdomains in a single product.
Cheap OV SSL Certificates
Your organization’s verified name and address appear directly in the certificate. Issued in 1–2 business days.
Organization Validation (OV) adds a layer that DV cannot provide: the CA confirms the applicant’s legal business identity before issuing the certificate. Visitors who inspect the certificate see your company name and address, not just a domain.
The price premium over a cheap SSL certificate at the DV level covers this identity assurance and a higher warranty amount. When comparing SSL certificate prices across validation types, OV is the right fit for business websites that collect user data or represent an established organization.
Cheap EV SSL Certificates
The most rigorous identity verification in SSL. Built for e-commerce, financial services, and high-trust environments.
Extended Validation (EV) puts a certificate through checks that no other type requires: verification of operational existence, physical address, legal registration, and a phone callback to confirm the requester’s authority.
Issuance takes 1–3 business days. In return, EV certificates carry the largest warranties and provide the highest trust level for visitors who examine certificate details. For sites processing payments or handling sensitive transactions, a cheap EV SSL certificate delivers that assurance at a fraction of the retail price.
Cheap SSL Certificates from Leading Brands
SSL Dragon carries certificates from six Certificate Authorities, so you can compare products and prices across brands without visiting multiple sites.
Sectigo (formerly Comodo) holds the largest CA market share globally with the widest product range, from DV to EV. Comodo-branded certificates are the same products under the legacy name.
DigiCert is the premium choice for enterprises that need maximum warranty coverage and dedicated support. Certificates carry the highest warranty amounts in the catalog.
GeoTrust offers a mid-range balance of price and warranty across DV, OV, and EV products. Part of the DigiCert family, with strong global browser compatibility.
RapidSSL keeps things simple: DV certificates with fast issuance, backed by DigiCert infrastructure, at some of the lowest prices available for single-domain encryption.
Thawte brings decades of CA history and strong recognition in international markets. Available across DV, OV, and EV, with reliable issuance backed by DigiCert.
GoGetSSL competes on price across DV, OV, wildcard, and multi-domain categories. A strong option when low cost and trusted CA backing are both priorities.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. All SSL certificates use the same 256-bit encryption standard. The cost difference reflects the validation level (DV, OV, or EV), warranty amount, and Certificate Authority brand. A $7.66 DV certificate encrypts data in transit identically to one costing several hundred dollars. Affordable and low cost options provide the same protection as premium ones.
