What is the Domgate reseller program?

The Domgate reseller program is a wholesale service for professionals who sell domain names to their own clients. As a Domgate reseller, you register and manage country code domains (ccTLDs) for your clients from a single account: in the client area, through the Domains Reseller API, with the Domgate WHMCS module or over EPP. Domgate handles what makes country code domains hard to sell: it keeps the rules of each registry up to date, tells you which documents a registry asks for before the order and files them with the registration, and provides the local presence that restricted extensions require.

The program is made for retail and corporate registrars, hosting companies and web agencies that want to offer more country code extensions, and for IP law firms and other professionals who prefer to outsource complex ccTLDs. Domgate works only with professionals, never directly with consumers. The company has registered country code domains since 2014; it was founded by Philippe Boos, a former European Trademark Attorney, and its team brings together ccTLD account managers, ccTLD legal specialists and IT experts.

Reseller prices apply to reseller accounts. They differ from the public prices shown on the site, in euros excluding VAT, and are not published: you ask for them with the form on this page, and our wholesale prices page explains how they work.

Key points of the program

  • Global management of all your ccTLDs via a single portal
  • API easily plugged in to your own platform
  • Access to up-to-date rules and conditions of domain name registration
  • Upload of documents via your portal
  • Constant update of registration process and status

Why use one gateway instead of several suppliers?

Most registrars reach country code domains through several suppliers, each with its own account, rules and invoices, and the extensions none of them covers are bought elsewhere by their clients. One Domgate account replaces that patchwork.

The domains your clients already hold at other registrars can join the same account through a domain transfer; if the extension requires a local presence that your client does not have, we add our local presence service to the transfer order, for the extensions where we offer it.

How do you connect: client area, API, WHMCS module or EPP?

Choose the connection that fits your platform; many resellers combine the client area with the API or the WHMCS module. Once your account is open, your credentials are in the client area, under Support › Reseller Registrar Credentials.

ConnectionMade forWhat it does
Client areaResellers who order by handOrder, renew and transfer domains, upload the documents a registry asks for, follow each status, manage contacts, sub-accounts and payment methods.
Domains Reseller APIYour own platform or scriptsRequests over HTTPS with your API token and account e-mail, answers in JSON: register, transfer and renew; nameservers, contacts, DNS records, registrar lock and authorisation code; synchronisation of statuses and expiry dates; your balance and transactions.
WHMCS moduleHosting companies that sell with WHMCSAdds Domgate as a registrar in WHMCS, with the additional fields each extension needs in your order form. Your account manager sends you the module.
EPPRegistrars with their own EPP clientThe standard EPP commands for domains and contacts (RFC 5731 and RFC 5733); a poll tells you whether the registry documents were received, rejected or accepted.

The prices per extension can also be read in JSON, through the pricing action of the portal's API, with access details we give you on request. When a registry asks for documents, you upload them in the client area or through the document API, with the token of the domain that the API returns. Through the API, you can also offer anonymous registration to your clients, under your name.

Thanks to our comprehensive Local Presence service, we free up the world for you and your clients. This way, you can register new country code TLDs, such as Kuwait, Oman, Ireland, Norway, Malaysia, Hong-Kong, Morocco, Ghana, Argentina, Brazil and many others. For countries where no local presence is possible because the domain name must match the local company name, e.g. Thailand, we even provide local trademark registration thanks to our global network of local Trademark Attorneys.

  • Resolution of local barriers, such as language, payment methods, regulations
  • Human resources saving (salaries, rental space, training)
  • Country code TLDs sales coaching to increase your profitability and business outcomes
  • Corporate services (portfolio audit and consolidation, domain names' watching, cease-and-desist letter, UDRP, anonymization)
  • Dedicated account manager
  • Free domain training courses for clients and staff members

Which country code domains can your clients register?

Every extension of our catalogue has its own page with the registry rules, the documents, the processing time and the public price, and our country code domains page lists them by region, with second-level extensions such as .com.br or .co.th.

For a reseller, the extensions that matter most are often the ones other suppliers leave out, because their registry wants an address, a company or a contact in the country. Domgate provides that local presence through its own branch offices in some countries and trusted local agents in others. You order it with the domain, from the client area or through the API, for a yearly fee per domain, and whatever role Domgate takes with the registry, a written agreement records that the domain is registered for you or your client.

Where the domain must match a local company name or a trademark, as for .co.th in Thailand, we register the trademark locally through our network of local trademark attorneys. The registration then follows the processing time of the registry, from 24 hours for .com.br to two to five days for .om, and the holder still provides the documents the registry asks for. Our local presence page sets out, extension by extension, the condition, the role we take, the documents and the price.

  • Once we start using Domgate, we shifted at many markets. We were uncompetitive with pricing in these markets, but as we choose Domgate, we drop prices and start selling. Nice flexible team, btw :)

Reseller program: frequent questions

A ccTLD reseller program lets a registrar, a hosting company or another professional sell country code domains to its own clients without an accreditation at each country's registry. Domgate resellers order 1,300+ ccTLDs from one account, in the client area, through the Domains Reseller API, with the WHMCS module or over EPP. Domgate keeps each registry's rules up to date, files the documents a registry asks for with the registration, and provides the local presence where a registry requires one.
