Trust Certification for Domains

Why do I need a UK2 Trust Certificate for my domain?

A UK2's Domain Certificate on your website tells visitors that your site is legitimate, and that you are the legal originator of your domain name. For this reason it is ideal for all websites, but even more important if you are a business and require visitors to share their personal details such as name, mailing address, card details or telephone number in order to make a purchase, subscribe to your newsletter, or even to make comments on your blog or forum.

Due to the ever increasing threat of phishing, pharming, and various other online scams, trust has become a major issue for web surfers. Particularly when a website requires them to share their personal, sensitive data such as card details, telephone number or email address.

How does it work?

Once you have purchased your UK2 Domain Certificate, we will then initiate a verification process which takes no longer than 10 minutes.

• Simply purchase the service with an existing uk2 domain, or buy a new one (or transfer one in) using the links on this page.
• One of our trust certification operatives will then run through a checklist against your order and will check your details are valid (things like a real phone number is listed). We may have to give you a call or send some test emails for validation purposes in this part so please ensure you use your up to date contact details.
• Once the certification process is complete (usually between 24 and 48 hours) you will be able to display our validation certificate image on your website, instructions on how to do this are emailed to you when you place the order. For security this will only be displayed once you have been validated.
