Many providers, like DigiCert, GeoTrust, Sectigo and Thawte, offer advantageous ordering options with a Multi-year Plan on various encryption products. Multi-year Plan certificates allow for immediate savings compared to purchases with a one-year validity period. Resellers who buy certificates using this option profit from price stability for a period of up to 72 months. In addition, the price for certificates decreases percentually depending on the selected multi-year buying option. You can select a period of 24, 36, 48, 60 or 72 months with a Multi-year Plan.
Please note: In order to meet all security guidelines of the CA/B Forum, the certificate must nevertheless be revalidated after 397 days at the latest.
