FAQs
Does this affect me?
This will only affect you if you are currently using a free version of the McAfee SECURE service. There are no changes to any of our paid Pro plans.
If you are using our Wix app, your site will not be migrated at this time.
What happens when my certification switches to TrustedSite?
Once your site becomes TrustedSite certified, the floating TrustedSite trustmark will display in place of the floating McAfee SECURE trustmark. It will display for up to 500 visits each month at no cost. You can upgrade to a Pro plan to remove the limit and get access to our full suite of tools.
Your existing verification page information will be migrated automatically, however, there is additional information you can add for your new listing.

When will this change occur?
You can make the switch any time you like by selecting your site in your dashboard, clicking Upgrade then selecting Upgrade Now in the TrustedSite free card.
All sites will be automatically switched on January 16, 2020.
Why is this change happening?
