Can SRSplus Partners allow their Customers to make modifications to their domain names?
The SRSplus API allows you to make modifications of domain records for domain names on behalf of your customers. There is no charge to you to facilitate a change in ownership of domain names on behalf of your customers for domains where you are the controlling registrar.

What characters can be used in a domain name?
You have lots of flexibility in creating your domain name. You can use:

• Letters
• Numbers
• Hyphens (they can't appear at the beginning or end of the domain name)

Using any combination of the above, you can have up to 67 characters in your domain name, including the extension (e.g., .com, .net, .org). Characters that are never permitted in a domain name include:

• Spaces
• Special characters, e.g. @ # $ % ^ & * ( ) ? "

Note www. and http://www. are not considered part of the domain name and therefore don't count towards the 67 character maximum.

How do I edit domain name and Registrant information after registration?
There are two types of information associated with a domain name: Registrant specific information and domain specific information.

• Registrant Specific Information: This includes Registrant Contact information. When you register a domain name through Partner Manager, we create a Registrant record to make future registrations faster and more efficient. You can change this information at any time by clicking on a Registrant's e-mail address displayed under the "Manage Domains" or "Manage Registrants" pages in the Partner Manager. Any changes to the Registrant Contact will apply to all domain names registered for that Registrant. Please note that to change the 'First Name', 'Last Name', or 'Organization' information, you must contact Partner Support.
• Domain Specific Information: This includes Administrative, Technical Contact, and DNS Information. You can change this information at any time by clicking on a domain name under the 'Manage Domains' results page in Partner Manager. If you edit this information, the changes will apply to the specific domain only.

How do I renew a domain name?
You can renew a domain name through various paths under the "Domains" tab in Partner Manager.

Register Link: To renew multiple domain names with one transaction, click on the Register link under Domains and enter one or more domain names in the search box, including TLD and click 'Renew' to continue.

'Renew' Domain link: To renew a single or multiple domain names, go to the Manage Domains link under Domains in Partner Manager. You will see a list of all the domain names you have registered. Select the domains you wish to renew using the check boxes and then select "Renew".

Can I cancel a domain name?
No, transactions may not be canceled, so please be careful when performing any billable transactions. By registering or renewing a domain name, you are accepting responsibility for full payment of the registration or renewal charge.

Can I delete a domain name?
You may choose to delete domain names from your account through Partner Manager. Two notes of caution when using this feature: deletes are not cancellations and no refunds or credits will be given if you choose to delete a new registration or renewal.
