Getting access
Reseller access is issued per partner — contact the operator to get your partner key. There’s no self-serve signup. Your single key works for both:X-Partner-Key— create accounts (skips captcha and per-IP signup limits).X-Reseller-Key— mint, list, and settle plan codes.
Provisioning flow
Three calls create a customer and put them on a plan:1. Create the account
2. Mint a plan code
plan_id is standard or pro — both include system Usenet + indexer with
nothing extra to buy (starter does not bundle Usenet). period is monthly,
yearly, lifetime, or days (see Trials).
3. Activate it on the account
Trials
Mint a shortdays code for a trial that auto-expires, then upgrade the same
account after payment:
monthly
code on the same account to continue — the new term starts from redemption.
Billing
- Codes never expire until redeemed — prepay a batch and use it over time.
- The plan term starts only when a code is redeemed, not when it’s minted.
- Settlement reconciles the codes you’ve activated so you can be invoiced.
Reconciliation
Calls are safe to retry after an uncertain response:- Redeem is idempotent — redeeming an already-used code returns
409 this code has already been used, confirming the first attempt worked. - List your codes (
GET /api/reseller/codes) to see exactly what was minted or redeemed.
