Anther sad news.. I just received an email notification about it.
Looks like their paid, and the free GoSSL ACME services affected also.
This IMPORTANT INFORMATION is sent to Buypass ACME Account contacts.
Buypass has decided to terminate the service for issuing TLS/SSL Certificates, including Go SSL (ACME). Certificates may be applied for until 15 October 2025. The last issuance date will be 31 October 2025.
All certificates issued by 31 October 2025 will remain valid until they reach their expiry date or are revoked.

What was good in BuyPass?
The certificate is valid for 180 days
They Issued longer validity certificates (180 days)
+1 free alternative option is always a good thing. But this is -1
You can use Google, with acme + cron you won't need to care about the expire date.
Another benefit is that their root CA is still valid even when certificate stores are outdated on some devices - in my case Buypass helped solve an issue with certain smart TVs for Plex (besides telling people to buy a new TV).
Free SSL/TLS certificates are available from several Certificate Authorities (CAs) like Let's Encrypt and ZeroSSL
I'm using autossl and cf ssl. free.
Yeah
In issues like these
I always buy a new
