What is the history and background of BulkRegister?

Established in 1999 in Baltimore, BulkRegister was one of the first companies to become a ICANN-accredited registrar after the government mandated competition in the domain name industry. BulkRegister pioneered the ability to manage multiple domains in one account and focused those management tools toward the needs of business clients. Thousands of Web entrepreneurs, design firms, corporate brand managers, and other IT services firms also use BulkRegister to power their own profitable, private-branded domain name services as well as their own network of resellers.

Why does BulkRegister require membership?

Because we are focused on the special needs of businesses and institutions who are large domain portfolio owners – not retail customers – membership secures the development, upgrades and updates to our proprietary suite of robust domain management tools. In addition to a superior level of technology, customer service and support, we also provide members with bulk wholesale pricing for domains and web services.

Many registrars charge their clients for every little change they make to their account information, for DNS services and even for calling customer service! Our goal is to make it easy for our members to manage their portfolios in the easiest, most secure, and most cost-effective way in the industry.

Yes, depending on when the domain's actual expire date is and depending on the current registrars policies. However, because transfers can be tricky, we often recommend that if the domain is due in 30 days or less, process your renewal with the current registrar and THEN transfer your domain. You will not lose any paid registration time in fact, you will gain an additional twelve months which will automatically be added to the end of the new expiration date.
