Go Daddy has reseller accounts through wildwestdomains. What is whmcs or awbs? I did a search through google for those, but how could you use this to become a registrar? Without using a reseller, you would have to pay a large amount of money to become a registrar (not sure how much), and you would have to handle support as well as all the billing you mentioned above.
I would rather lose some flexibility and some profit rather than handle things like support, fraud, etc, myself.

Some of those points are valid, the OP didn't mention whether they would or wouldnt want to get too involved.
Both AWBS http://www.awbs.com and whmcs http://www.whmcs.com are billing automation platforms, both incorporate fraud prevention services, both have ticketing systems for support.
If you have a good registrar, support isnt an issue frankly.
WWD costs you money to join and keep running yearly, if you domt renew your membership they take the domains and put them under their own reseller account!
eNom is the other one I could have mentioned.

I have been using GoDaddy's reseller program with a lot of success (that is what doory.com is). Other than you making money, are there benefits using your company netearthone.com over Go Daddy's? I am always open to new ideas if they help my company.
Thanks!
Thanks!
$200 a year! or $135 with discount...
Why pay anything... here are plenty of Registrar / Reseller companies out there offering them for nothing.
I mean Inno hosting, $6.95 for a .com from recollection....
Or simply go direct to a registrar!

Unless I missunderstood your website, you do have a $0 reseller program, but your buy rate for a .com is $8.95. Buy rates for Go Daddy or doory reseller is around $7.40, something like your Tier 5 which requires a $5,000 deposit.
What does it cost for your API program? I am thinking about moving more to an API approach since some of the reseller websites are not made for a non-tech person!
Well, you can jump straight to Tier 2, just by searching the main reseller page for the Easter Egg, so straight in to $7.89 for .com.
We also have the refugee program that takes into account domains at other registrars.
.NET cost of $6.83 on tier 4, $ 5.83 on tier 5. .UK is $8.84 for 2 years.
API program cost, = zero, 0.00, zip its free.
I have asked the forum admins about a sub-forum for NetEarth One, which they said could be added in Jan.
