Namecheap to Stop Selling Sectigo Certificates on July 11 – What This Means for Your SSL Provisioning?

A notable update has emerged in the SSL/TLS market: Namecheap has officially announced that it will cease selling Sectigo (formerly Comodo) SSL certificates, effective July 11, 2026.

If your organization currently provisions or resells Sectigo certificates via Namecheap, it is important to understand how this catalog change impacts your upcoming operations.

Key Impact and Risks of the Transition

While currently active Sectigo certificates will remain trusted by web browsers until their natural expiration date, two critical operational changes will take effect after the July 11 deadline:

• No Renewal Options: Users will no longer be able to renew existing Sectigo certificates or place new orders through Namecheap.

• Service Continuity Risk: If a Sectigo certificate expires without a timely migration plan, websites will display "Not Secure" warnings, potentially leading to traffic drops, reduced user trust, and business disruption.

To ensure uninterrupted service and seamless migration, Namecheap customers and resellers need a stable provider to take over their Sectigo lifecycle management.
