MYNIC'S RESELLER PROGRAMME

MYNIC has officially appointed partners, known as Resellers, to register .com.my, .net.my, .org.my and .name.my third level domain names. Resellers bring Registrants through all the steps of registration, including collecting payments. They also offer non-MYNIC-related domain name services such as domain name hosting and data services.

Please click here for a complete listing of Resellers and their contact details.

ABOUT RESELLERS

What’s a MYNIC Reseller?

Resellers are partners officially appointed by MYNIC to handle domain name registration (DNR) on behalf of MYNIC for the .com.my, .net.my, .org.my and .name.my domain names. Resellers have personnel dedicated to providing this service, a list of whom MYNIC maintains.

Resellers are also authorised to collect MYNIC domain name registration fees for the above three domain names, from you (i.e. your organisation, the Registrant). Please note that you do not have to pay any additional fees to the Reseller to register with them. All domain name registration fees charged are imposed by MYNIC (see below).

In addition to registration, Resellers offer their own other services such as domain name hosting and data services. However, you are not bound to subscribe to these services when you register with them. For more information on non-MYNIC services, please refer to the respective Resellers.

Please note that submitting a domain name registration form does not guarantee registration of the domain name. You must conform to MYNIC’s procedures and policies, which your Reseller will explain to you or which you can look up here.

Where does MYNIC come in?

Once you have applied to register your domain name with a Reseller, your application will go to MYNIC for approval. Only MYNIC can approve or reject domain names. MYNIC also sets and charges .my domain name registration and renewal fees, and maintains an updated list of Resellers.

Go to top of page
Do all Resellers offer the same .my domain name registration service?

Yes, all Resellers offer the same domain name registration service. They are obliged to handle all domain name registration requests and must abide by MYNIC’s Reseller Programme Policies And Procedures, which outline their duties and service levels.

However, what may differ, are the other services that Resellers may choose to bundle with the domain name registration services, such as domain name hosting and data services. MYNIC is not responsible for these other services and the Registrant is not obliged to purchase these other services.

What do Resellers do with domain name registration information I pass them?

Resellers are partners who act only on behalf of MYNIC. All information collected on behalf of MYNIC, that is connected to domain name registration, are proprietary to MYNIC and will not be transferred, given or sold to any party.

Resellers are not allowed to distribute domain name data information, including but not limited to the domain name, registrant, contact persons, server, registration, expiry and billing information.

What happens to my application?

Domain name application forms are processed by MYNIC every working day of the week, and processing takes two working days. Domain names are registered on a 'first come, first served' basis.

What about payment?

Please note that fees charged by MYNIC Resellers may vary but the maximum amount for .com.my, .net.my and .org.my domain names is RM100.00 per name per year. For .name.my, the maximum amount is RM40.00 per year.

Sometimes, resellers may bundle the domain name registration service with other products and services such as domain name hosting and other data centre services. You may choose not to buy any of these additional services when you register your new domain name.

In the event that the domain name is rejected for whatever reason, your MYNIC Reseller must refund any payment made by you for the domain name registration.

On the anniversary of your registration, the reseller will bill you a renewal fee to keep your domain name registered. When you make payment, make sure the reseller
issues you with a receipt as proof of payment.

TROUBLE-SHOOTING

Whom do I contact to find out the status of my application?

MYNIC will notify you via e-mail throughout these stages of the processing:

Go to top of page


What if my application was rejected by MYNIC because the Reseller made a mistake?

That is not likely because the onus is on you to check the accuracy of the information before it's submitted; in particular, double-check the domain name and Registrant information. Submitting the application form means you have confirmed your application and verified the information. However, if in doubt, contact MYNIC.

To whom do I appeal if my application is rejected?

MYNIC.

Can I change Resellers halfway through if I’m not happy with the service?

You are free to go to any Reseller at any stage of your domain name registration process. However, note that your domain name registration is separate from any other service you might purchase from a Reseller. MYNIC is not responsible for any other agreements for services, which you might have signed with them.

Does a Reseller have the right to reject my application?

Yes, if your application does not conform to MYNIC policies and procedures, for example over choices of domain names, and not fulfilling the requisite of having a local presence. If in doubt, check the MYNIC homepage.

WHERE CAN I LOOK UP A RESELLER?

Is there a list of authorised resellers?

Yes. Note that you should register your .com.my, .net.my, .org.my and name.my domain name only with a MYNIC Reseller who appears on this list. If you are recommended or are approached by companies or individuals claiming to be MYNIC Resellers, and they do not appear on this list, contact MYNIC immediately.
