CentralNic Registry sets itself apart from competitors by fostering open and transparent relationships with its Registry Partners. Its standard service package delivers an unparalleled level of access, exceeding what other backend providers offer.
All Registry Partners have access to the following unique proprietary CentralNic Registry services:
The Registry Console is a secure, web-based portal offering real-time access to critical registry data. It allows management of Domains Under Management, enhanced domain searches, and control over domain reservation, blocking, and release.
Additionally, it supports the handling of launch phase applications, registrar statistics and reports, abusive domain management, URS case management, and eligibility management systems like the Pending Create Queue, Registrant Verification, and Pre-Generated AuthInfo Code.
The platform also facilitates pricing promotion management, transaction statistics, and reporting. Access to specific system elements can be restricted to authorised users only, ensuring robust security.
CentralNic Registry’s powerful Registry API provides deep, programmable access to the internal functions of the registry system. This RESTful API includes all the features available on the Registry Console, along with additional capabilities. Designed for seamless automated integration with third-party or custom in-house applications, the API does not include a user interface but is fully documented. Please contact us if you require access to the documentation.
For secure access to registration data, the platform offers Registry Data Escrow deposits in XML format, submitted to ICANN-approved Data Escrow Agents for gTLD registries.
For ease of use, this data is also available in CSV format, suitable for import into a relational database or spreadsheet, accessible through a secure FTP interface.
In addition, CentralNic Registry provides real-time registry event data through the SRS Firehose, delivering a constant stream of activity related to your TLD(s). This includes EPP commands (such as <check> and <info>), WHOIS queries, and other events, transmitted as JSON-encoded data through a secure syslog channel. The stream can be directed to your servers for storage and processing according to your needs.
