Why choose a DV SSL certificate?
For most websites, domain validation is the fastest path from "not secure" to fully encrypted — without slowing down a launch.
Fast domain validation
Automated checks confirm domain ownership in minutes, so your certificate is often ready the same day you order.
HTTPS security
Every request between your visitors and your server is encrypted, protecting logins, forms, and payment data in transit.
Affordable protection
Encryption shouldn't be a budget decision. DV plans start under $10/year with no compromise on cipher strength.
Browser compatibility
Recognized by Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge out of the box — visitors see the padlock, never a warning page.
Single & wildcard options
Cover one hostname or every subdomain under a single certificate — choose the shape that fits your infrastructure.
Compare single-domain vs. wildcard DV SSL
Both certificate types validate the same way and carry the same encryption strength — the difference is how much of your domain they cover.
| Feature | Single-Domain DV SSL | Wildcard DV SSL |
|---|---|---|
| Coverage | example.com | *.example.com |
| Subdomains included | None | Unlimited, one level deep |
| Validation method | DNS, HTTP, or Email | DNS or Email |
| Encryption strength | 256-bit TLS | 256-bit TLS |
| Issuance time | ~5 minutes | ~5 minutes |
| Typical starting price | $9.99/year | $49.99/year |
| Best for | One website, one host | Multi-subdomain platforms |
Best use cases — Single-Domain
- A brochure site or blog on one hostname
- A single storefront with no subdomains
- A staging site that only needs www + root
Best use cases — Wildcard
- SaaS platforms issuing a subdomain per customer
- Sites running blog., shop., api., and app. subdomains
- Agencies managing many client subdomains centrally
Which one should you choose? If every page you serve lives under one hostname, single-domain covers it for less. The moment you're spinning up subdomains — even occasionally — a wildcard pays for itself by removing the need to buy and manage a certificate for each one.
What is a Domain Validation (DV) SSL certificate?
A DV (Domain Validated) SSL certificate verifies domain ownership and encrypts data between your website and visitors. It is the simplest SSL certificate type and can be issued quickly because the Certificate Authority only verifies domain control, not business details.
What it verifies
Ownership or administrative control of the domain name — confirmed through DNS, a hosted file, or a registered email address.
What it protects
Data in transit between browser and server: form submissions, login credentials, cookies, and page content, all encrypted end to end.
How it differs from OV & EV
Organization and Extended Validation certificates additionally verify your registered business identity, which takes longer and costs more — DV skips that step entirely.
DV confirms control of the domain only — OV and EV certificates layer on registered business verification for organizations that need identity assurance, not just encryption.
DV SSL certificate pricing
No hidden setup fees. Every plan includes unlimited reissues, a site seal, and warranty protection.
Single Domain DV SSL
Secures one exact hostname
e.g. yourdomain.com
TWD4,818/year Save TWD2,277
- 1 fully-qualified domain
- 256-bit encryption
- Issued in ~5 minutes
- $10,000 warranty
Wildcard DV SSL
Secures unlimited subdomains
e.g. *.yourdomain.com
TWD13,134/year Save TWD5,247
- Unlimited subdomains
- 256-bit encryption
- Issued in ~5 minutes
- $10,000 warranty
Prefer to pay once? Multi-year terms are available on every plan — 2-year and 3-year billing saves up to 40% over annual renewal.
How domain validation works
Pick whichever verification method fits your access level — all three confirm the same thing: that you control the domain.
DNS validation
Add a TXT record to your domain's DNS zone. Ideal when you manage your own nameservers.
HTTP file validation
Upload a verification file to a set path on your web server. Ideal when you have hosting access but not DNS.
Email validation
Approve a confirmation link sent to an admin address on record, such as admin@yourdomain.com.
Certificate issuance process
How to get your DV SSL certificate
From checkout to a padlock icon in the address bar — four steps, most of them automated.
Choose your plan
Pick single-domain or wildcard, select a term length, and complete checkout in under two minutes.
Verify domain ownership
Confirm control via DNS, HTTP file, or email — whichever fits your access.
Certificate issued
Once verification clears, your certificate and private key files are generated and emailed to you.
Install & enable HTTPS
Upload the certificate to your server or control panel and force HTTPS across your site.

Frequently Asked Questions
Qpeck's DV SSL certificate price for single domain starts at TWD4,059/year and TWD11,385/year for a wildcard certificate in TAIWAN, PROVINCE OF CHINA . Pricing is shown in your local currency TWD based on your country, so the amount you see on the pricing page will already reflect your region's rates.
DV, OV, and EV SSL Certificates provide the same HTTPS protection and 256-bit TLS encryption but differ in the level of identity verification performed by the Certificate Authority (CA). A Domain Validation (DV) certificate verifies domain ownership, an Organization Validation (OV) certificate verifies both domain ownership and business identity, while an Extended Validation (EV) certificate performs the highest level of organizational verification. The encryption strength remains the same; the difference is the amount of verified identity and customer trust.
A DV SSL Certificate enables HTTPS by installing a trusted digital certificate that uses Transport Layer Security (TLS) encryption to create a secure connection between a web server and a visitor's browser. During the TLS handshake, encryption keys are exchanged to protect passwords, login credentials, payment information, and other sensitive data from interception. Once installed correctly, visitors see HTTPS and the browser padlock, confirming a secure and encrypted website connection.
DV SSL certificates are usually issued within a few minutes to a few hours, since the only step involved is verifying that you control the domain. There's no business document verification required, which is why DV SSL is the quickest SSL type to get live.
DV SSL Certificates issued by trusted Certificate Authorities (CAs) are recognized by all major web browsers, including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Edge, Apple Safari, and Opera. After installation, browsers establish a secure HTTPS connection, display the padlock icon, and confirm that the website uses trusted TLS encryption for secure communication. Browser trust depends on the issuing CA being included in the operating system and browser root certificate stores.
A DV SSL Certificate can be renewed before expiration or reissued if you replace your private key, migrate your server, or need to reinstall the certificate. Renewing your SSL Certificate ensures uninterrupted HTTPS protection, while reissuing generates a new digital certificate without changing your validated domain ownership. Maintaining a valid certificate helps preserve website security, browser trust, and uninterrupted encrypted connections.
Wildcard SSL costs more because it covers unlimited subdomains under a single domain instead of just one. If you run multiple subdomains, buying one wildcard certificate at TWD11,385/year usually works out cheaper and simpler than buying separate single domain certificates for each subdomain.
You can typically verify ownership in one of three ways: adding a DNS TXT record to your domain, uploading a verification file to your web server, or clicking a confirmation link sent to an approved email address on the domain (like admin@yourdomain.com).
