The GeoTrust seal is a dynamically-generated image that will only appear on stores protected by certain SSL certificates from GeoTrust. Having a GeoTrust seal will increase your shoppers' level of trust in your store, which can boost your conversion rate.
Locating the Code
Store owners can locate their GeoTrust SSL seal by accessing the Account Dashboard and following the steps below.
In SSL Certificates, click the ⋯ settings button next to your active SSL and select View site seal from the dropdown.
Copy the script from the code box on the Site Seal page.
Adding the GeoTrust Seal
Once you have obtained your site seal code, you can add it to your store's footer using Page Builder.
These instructions are for themes based on Cornerstone 5.4.0 or newer. If you are using an older Stencil theme, we recommend updating it to its most current version. See Blueprint Themes for instructions on adding site seal script to a legacy Blueprint theme.
1. Go to Storefront › Themes and click Customize to launch Page Builder.
Using Multi-Storefront? Each storefront's themes are located in the storefront-specific settings within Channel Manager. See Single-Storefront vs. Multi-Storefront for more information.
2. In Page Builder, scroll down to locate the Global region in the footer.
3. Drag and drop an HTML widget into the region. An HTML code box will appear in the Page Builder menu. Here, you can delete the default code and paste your site seal script in its place. Click Save HTML when you are done.
4. When you are ready, Save and Publish your changes to make them live on your storefront.
FAQ
Why is my SSL missing the "View site seal" option in my account dashboard?
If you are using the free SSL certificate or a third-party SSL, you will not have a site seal generated by GeoTrust.
Can I use the GeoTrust SSL Common Name field in my theme's settings to add a site seal to my store?
No. This setting has been deprecated, but it can still be found in older versions of some Stencil themes. If you still have this setting, we recommend updating your theme and using the steps in this article to add your SSL site seal.
Can I add my site seal HTML code to the store via other means?
You can use the Script Manager to insert the site seal code into your store's footer. Alternatively, you can add the code by editing your theme files directly.
Why is my GeoTrust site seal not visible on the storefront?
The site seal should display within 24 hours of installation and often will display within a couple of hours.
