Manage your sub-reseller control panel (OpenSRS Control panel)

A shortcut to this article: opensrs.help/sub-reseller

You can use the OpenSRS Reseller Control panel to manage the components of your sub-resellers control panel easily. To begin, click the Account settings tab at the top right of the control panel and then click the Sub-reseller tab. There are three sections for the Sub-reseller tab.

Control panel links

In the Control panel links section, you can set the URLs for the Classic reseller interface and the Control panel for your sub-resellers.

  1. Click Edit next to Control panel links to begin.

  2. Select from the following options for your control panel URL:
    • Default URL
    • Branded OpenSRS Subdomain
    • Subdomain based on the generic resellerco.com domain name
  3. Click Submit.

If you want to set up a custom URL for your control panel, please contact OpenSRS support. Setting up a custom URL would cost $199 and involves a manual process that cannot be done through the control panel. The pricing includes a three year Thawte SSL 123 certificate. After three years, if you would still like to continue, the certificate can be renewed at a price listed at that time on our SSL pricing page. There will not be other fees associated with the custom sub-reseller login URL. Please keep in mind that the pricing policy might change in the future.
