A secure connection comes as standard.
SSL enables encrypted HTTPS connections, helping keep information private as it travels between your visitors and your site. It comes with every plan.

On your own domain
Your own domain gets its own certificate.
Sites on a fastsites.app address are covered by our certificate. If you connect your own domain, it gets its own.
We check it
Once your domain points to us, your dashboard shows the setup moving on.
We issue the certificate
Your domain needs a valid certificate before it can serve a secure connection.
Your site opens on HTTPS
Visitors can inspect the secure connection in their browser. You don’t install anything.
What SSL does
With SSL, your address starts with https instead of http. A valid certificate lets browsers establish an encrypted connection, protecting information in transit, including information submitted through your contact form.
A certificate can only be issued once your domain’s records point to us. If HTTPS is not ready, check the DNS and certificate status in your dashboard, or contact support.

Check the address
Look for https:// and check the domain is the one you intended to visit. Some browsers hide the prefix until you select the address.
- 02
Open the connection details
Select the site-information control beside the address. It may look like sliders, a shield or a padlock. Check the connection status and certificate information.

Take warnings seriously
If your browser reports an unsafe connection or certificate problem, stop before entering sensitive information. HTTPS protects the connection; it does not prove a business is trustworthy.

Questions
People also ask
Will my site use a secure HTTPS connection?
Yes. SSL is included and set up for you. If you connect your own domain, its certificate is issued automatically once your domain’s records point to us. Check the connection details beside the browser address; the icon varies between browsers.
