How to Get Started

The first step in becoming a reseller is to identify a registrar company accredited by ICANN and enter into an agreement directly with the registrar company to become one of their resellers. We can help; review our list of accredited registrars. Each registrar may have its own unique requirements, agreements and pricing for their resellers.

Once you’ve become a reseller for a registrar company, you can then apply with Verisign for approval to resell the .com, .net, .tv., .cc., .name, and .jobs TLDs.

Verisign evaluates each Domain Name Reseller request individually. We encourage value-added resellers and managed services organisations that sell to the enterprise market to apply.
