FAQ

Welcome to the FAQ for Namingo. This document is intended as a resource for registries to share with their registrars, providing answers to common questions and guidance on managing registrar accounts.

General Information

  • Configuration Access: All configurations of a registrar account are managed via the control panel. Registrars can choose to manage their customers through the panel or via EPP (Extensible Provisioning Protocol).
  • SSL Requirement: Access to the registry requires an SSL certificate. Any valid SSL certificate will work.

Tools and Modules

  • EPP Client: We provide an EPP client in PHP available at Tembo EPP Client.
  • WHMCS Module: For integration with WHMCS, use our module available at WHMCS EPP RFC.
  • FOSSBilling Module: For FOSSBilling integration, refer to FOSSBilling EPP RFC.
  • Compatibility: All other EPP clients that support RFC-compliant EPP will also work with our system.
