We have launched the reseller data programme in three phases:
Phase 1: 9 March 2010
- Beta release
- Submitting reseller information
The first phase has allowed registrars to submit data about the resellers that they use. Reseller data can be added to your registrar account using online service either individually or by bulk file upload. Documentation relating to managing
reseller information in the online service is available.
- Linking resellers to domain names
Once you have submitted your reseller information you can link existing domain names to resellers using the modify command. You can also associate new registrations with a reseller using additional fields in the create command.
Phase 2: 11 May 2010
On 11 May we have started to use reseller information in all of our communications with registrants. This includes:
- Welcome email
- Renewal reminders
- WHOIS
- Keepyour
- Registrant's online service account
Phase 3: 6 July 2010
On 6 July we released
commands and
schemas for managing reseller data using EPP
Full details about
how reseller data will be used is available.
