LogicBoxes waives off Upfront Fees for New gTLD Vertical Integration Solutions

Posted on by Amreen Bhujwala

LogicBoxes, the premier technology and consulting company for Domain Registries, Registrars and large Web Hosts, today announced that it has waived off all upfront fees for its Vertical Integration Solution for New gTLDs.

New gTLDs have great potential, especially the Geo and Community extensions that provide a unique online namespace for people belonging to that community and region. However, with over 300+ TLDs already launched, these New gTLDs haven’t quite achieved their true potential. One of the main reasons for this is the fact that Traditional Partner Registrars are aligned towards Mass Market Products and can only provide limited success for these extensions. Although Partner Registrars are a must for the Launch of gTLDs, a lot of the Niche TLDs can truly succeed only if they take control and Integrate Vertically.

In order to take complete control, it’s imperative for these New gTLD Registries to get their own retail storefront and also get local / regional players and Specialized Partners (Communities, Organizations, etc.) on board from their Target Region(s). The right Technology Partner holds the key for a successful Vertical Integration Solution for Niche TLDs. LogicBoxes, a premier Technology solutions provider in the Vertical Integration space, provides a tried-and-tested, robust automation platform used by 100+ ICANN Registrars. LogicBoxes also has extensive experience in providing Vertical Integration Solutions to a bunch of New gTLDs and ccTLDs such as .wein, .desi, .coop, .mn and .bz.

To facilitate New gTLD Registries to adopt Vertical Integration Solutions more readily, LogicBoxes has now waived off all Upfront Costs that includes platform setup and TLD integration fees. Also, LogicBoxes does not charge any Annual Maintenance / Management Fees for the usage of its platform.

Here’s what Siddharth Taliyan, Sr. Manager – Business Development at LogicBoxes, had to say,

We have been working closely with many New gTLD Registries for quite some time now and we would like to ensure that Upfront Costs are not a barrier for any New gTLD to Integrate Vertically. Our new model is built to scale as per the TLD’s growth, thereby, ensuring that our success is vested in the success of our New gTLD Partners.

LogicBoxes will be attending the ICANN conference in London later this month from the 22nd to the 26th of June. New gTLD and ccTLD Registries can catch the LogicBoxes team at its booth to discuss strategies on launching and expanding their TLDs. You can also schedule a meeting at the event with us by sending an email to [email protected]

LogicBoxes Rolls out ‘Registry Wallet’ Service to All Registrar Clients

Posted on by Amreen Bhujwala

LogicBoxes Registry Wallet

LogicBoxes, the business consulting and automation technology provider for Registries, Registrars and Webhosts, today announced the launch of their new Registry Wallet service, aimed at alleviating the Registry funds management woes of their ICANN Accredited Registrar clients. Through the service LogicBoxes will manage funding for its Registrars clients, across all their respective Registry accounts. The Registrar in turn would need to maintain funds only at one single account with LogicBoxes, their Registry Wallet.

Domain Registrars are required to maintain pre-paid accounts at every Registry at all times. Insufficient account balance, especially during high volumes of registrations, may lead to temporary suspension of domain registrations. This leads to a loss of customers and more importantly the Registrar’s reputation is affected. To ensure sufficient funding at all times, Registrars need to invest in time, resources and administrative effort. As a safety measure, Registrars end up blocking more funds than required and also paying higher towards bank transfer charges and so on.

The Registry Wallet service is a fund management solution developed by LogicBoxes to take the fund management worries off their clients. By availing this service, the Registrar would only need to maintain an optimum balance in a single place, their LogicBoxes Wallet. A system of LOCs and cash buffers are utilized to keep Registry accounts fully funded at all times. At the backend, pattern recognition algorithms predict fund usage and team is dedicated to supervise activity at all times. The service comes with additional safety features such as threshold reminders, emergency credits and deactivation protection. The service also includes business intelligence in the form of comprehensive fund usage reports and trends. A monthly consolidated invoice containing details of transactions across every Registry account is made available every month, to simplify reconciliation of accounts.

Neha Naik, Sr. Manager, Strategic Partnership at LogicBoxes says;

The problems of tracking and maintaining funds across various Registries will only get compounded with the introduction of hundreds of New gTLDs. Using our Registry Wallet service means our clients need to manage funds only in one place, without having to worry about numerous accounts across the Registries.

LogicBoxes plans to integrate its Registrar Automation Platform, and extend the Registry Wallet service with every New gTLD as it launches, providing a definite edge to its Registrar clients.

Posted on by admin

LogicBoxes, the premier technology and consulting company for Domain Registries, Registrars and large Web Hosts, today announced the launch of their Elite Reseller Program, a competitive offering designed exclusively for large domain and hosting companies. It features a unique base-cost pricing model for domain names, a comprehensive service offering that includes personalized business consulting, new generic Top Level Domains (gTLDs) strategy assistance and exclusive support solutions.

As part of the program, Elite Partners can manage their entire domains portfolio and new registrations in existing popular gTLDs (including .com & .net) at Registry base – cost, an industry – first. This means that there will be no markup on the Registry pricing, resulting in significant savings for Partners. Speaking about the program, Sr. Sales Manager, Siddharth Taliyan said, “We are extremely excited to be rolling out this unique and innovative offering, geared towards helping large domain companies achieve maximum growth from New gTLDs. Rather than focusing on profits, we want to gain market share. So, our revenue consideration will be from allied channels and New gTLD volumes which we will offer to our Elite Partners at the most competitive prices in the industry.”

LogicBoxes has over 10 years of experience in serving large ICANN Registrars and Registries. This is the first time ever that they have introduced a reseller offering. The program is unique in a way that it is ‘invite-only’, open to the Top 100 domains companies in the world, and the business requirements of these companies are not much different from those of large Registrars. Every Elite Partner is offered a custom experience across the board through dedicated and highly experienced Partner Managers, both from the business and technical divisions. Partners will benefit from reliable strategic inputs, enabling them to take decisions that work for their business and customers. Siddharth goes on to add, “Elite Partners will much appreciate the high level of attention, strategic assistance and personalized support. New gTLDs could be the Internet boom all over again and our offering will enable our Partners to be prepared!”

LogicBoxes’ domains distribution and business automation platform is one of the most comprehensive platforms in the industry today. With their 100+ strong in – house development team, LogicBoxes plans to integrate with every new gTLD giving their Partners an edge in the market.

The program is initially being rolled out to a select set of large companies from the United States. LogicBoxes plans to launch the program in other countries including UK, Germany, Netherlands, France and Italy shortly after the initial rollout. Qualifying companies will receive a personal invite to participate in the program. LogicBoxes also has an enquiry form where companies can express their interest to participate.
