Google is going to remove the PayPal trusted URL


I'm currently working on a project, which uses PayPal for it's payments. And I'm a bit concerned about this notification which Chrome trows.

The SSL certificate used to load resources from https://www.paypalobjects.com will be distrusted in M70. Once distrusted, users will be prevented from loading these resources. See https://g.co/chrome/symantecpkicerts for more information.

Any ideas how this should be replaced will be very appreciated!

Thank you for your time!

  • Both Chrome and Firefox have announced that they will increase the level of trust provided by the certificate authorities. The mentioned certificate will therefore only work until March '18 but I assume that PayPal will renew this certificate eventually.
