IMPORTANT: If you are a first time GlobalSign customer, you can place code signing certificate order through our website. During the ordering process, we will ask you to create your GlobalSign Certificate Center (GCC) account to manage your certificates and to process your future orders. If you are an existing customer and you have previously created a GCC account, proceed with the guidelines below. If you ordered Extended Validation (EV) Code Signing, please refer to this guide for a more specific instruction. |
Once logged in to GCC, select the Document, Code and Email Signing tab.
Click the Order Certificates icon to view the Client Certificate products.
Note: Alternatively, you can click Order Certificates under My Certificates to continue with the next window.
Select the product you wish to order from the group, then select the specific variant from the Select Product drop-down. Then, click Next.
INFORMATION: In this example, Standard Code Signing product is selected. Standard Code Signing Certificates undergo standard organization validation, while Extended Validation (EV) Code Signing Certificates undergo strict Extended Validation vetting requirements set by the CA/B Forum. |
In the Product Details screen under Certificate Application window, complete the Product Details, including the desired validity period, campaign or coupon codes if you have any, and your preferred Key Generation Options. Then, tick confirmation box and click Next.
WARNING: Select the key generation method that suit your needs and your system requirements. This method is required when downloading and installing your certificate. If selected incorrectly, you need to cancel your current order and reorder to change your selection. In this example, Enrolment with Fortify is selected. |
In the Certificate Identity Details screen, provide your information and create your temporary Pickup Password. Then, tick the confirmation box and click Next.
IMPORTANT: Ensure that the pickup password is kept in a secure password manager or carefully noted down as this will be a requirement later in the installation process. If lost or forgotten, you need to cancel your current order and place a new order. The pickup password must be at least 8 characters long and may contain alphanumeric characters. To know more about Pickup Password, follow this guide. |
