Basically, as mentioned by Kristine, both SSL and Website Passport are two different things and cannot be clubbed.

SSL also known as secured socket layers is a kind of certificate which secures all the transaction done between you and a merchant. The "https" indicates a secure website. Installing a SSL certificate ensure that your transaction are done securely.

Most of the times its hard to provide card details to a website you are not familiar with. The Website Passport basically removes such fears by offering business owners the chance to have their own website authenticated by a trusted third party. In a website passport things that are displayed are Company Address (validated), VAT Status, Google Malware Scan Status, Domain Age, Registrant Contact and Website Ratings, etc.
