FleetSSL

FleetSSL (Let’s Encrypt for cPanel) was the go-to WHM plugin for issuing free Let’s Encrypt certificates at scale — automating SSL for accounts before AutoSSL became the default path. After roughly seven years on the market, the vendor ended commercial sales, removed licensing, and released the plugin under the MIT license. Installs are free from GitHub Releases; no LicenseBoy invoice.

  • Let’s Encrypt SSL automation inside WHM / cPanel
  • Commercial product retired — now MIT open source, no paid license
  • Packages from GitHub Releases (best-effort upstream builds)
  • For most new servers, prefer cPanel AutoSSL; use FleetSSL only if you still need this plugin

Copy an install command below. Prefer AutoSSL on new cPanel servers unless you have a specific reason to keep FleetSSL.

FleetSSL installation

Free install — no paid license. Packages ship from GitHub Releases under the MIT license. On new cPanel servers, AutoSSL is usually the better default; use these commands when you specifically need the FleetSSL plugin.
