# Installing an SSL Certificate in Enhance

> Learn how to install a custom SSL certificate for a website in the Enhance control panel.

<Note>
  In many cases, you do not need to install an SSL certificate manually. For example, if you are using the free SSL certificate, it is installed automatically. Use this procedure only if you need to install an SSL certificate that you purchased from Verpex or another provider.
</Note>

## Install an SSL certificate

1. Log in to your Enhance control panel.

2. In the left sidebar, click **Websites**.
