In the last few years, thousands of IT companies, hosting providers, and digital resellers across Asia have started adding domain reselling to their business model. It's predictable: clients expect one-stop service, and domains are always the first step of any online project.
To support this growing demand, we are opening our Global Reseller Program to partners in Malaysia — a market undergoing rapid digital transformation with increasing demand for local domain identities.
Malaysia Domain Industry Pain Points
(Information provided by ChatGPT based on verified sources)
1. Local WHOIS transparency and verification requirements
Malaysia's ccTLD, .MY, requires identity verification for registration (passport/NRIC) and maintains transparent WHOIS records. WHOIS privacy masking is not available by registry policy, which some registrars must educate customers about.
2. Historically restrictive local presence requirements (recently eased)
Until mid-2024, registering a .MY domain required a local Malaysian presence or a trustee service. Though this was lifted, the legacy effect has meant slower global adoption and confusion among international buyers entering the Malaysian market.
3. Moderate adoption among established companies
Despite growth, many mainstream Malaysian corporations still haven't secured local domains (.my), e.g., only 466 of 961 Bursa listed companies had registered .my domains, missing an opportunity to protect their brand and SEO.
4. DNS & policy uncertainty risk perceptions
In 2024 the Malaysian regulator proposed rerouting all DNS traffic through ISP-controlled servers, raising concerns about internet freedom, DNS reliability and security risk, even though the immediate plan was shelved after pushback from stakeholders.
5. Market education & language/communication barriers
Marketing .MY domains effectively requires localization, including Malay language support and culturally aligned messaging as Malaysian buyers value local trust signals, identity relevance, and regional branding over generic TLD pitches.
Why Malaysia Is a Strategic Market for Resellers
Despite these pain points:
What Partners Tell Us They Value Most
1. Transparent, predictable pricing
2. API automation for developers
Integrate domain search, registration, renewal, and DNS updates directly into hosting panels or SaaS platforms — essential for scaling and reducing manual work.
3. Crypto-friendly payments
USDT, ETH, LTC and BTC payments are fully supported — solving a major barrier for IT teams operating across borders or dealing with banking restrictions.
4. Free WHOIS privacy for life
A compelling value-add resellers can pass on to clients, especially valuable where the registry doesn't provide privacy masking by default.
5. 24/7 human support
Critical for hosting companies and agencies managing hundreds of domains — particularly in dynamic markets like Malaysia where policy and adoption are evolving.
Our Reseller Program Is Ideal For
• Hosting providers
• Web development studios
• Digital resellers
• WordPress/Shopify freelancers
• SaaS and software companies
• Startup founders managing online brands
• Agencies offering domain + hosting + email solutions
If you help Malaysian businesses or serve clients targeting the Malaysian market, you should capture domain revenue instead of sending it to other providers.

Why Malaysia Is a Strategic Market for Resellers
Despite these pain points:
- .MY's growth has accelerated enormously — as of mid-2025, the .MY ccTLD has nearly doubled in size, surpassing 675,000 registered domains due to recent liberalized rules and demand growth.
- Government and registry initiatives are actively promoting digital adoption and online branding among local SMEs and startups.
- Malaysia is positioning itself as a regional digital hub, with strong SEO and trust value for local domains over generic TLDs.
- Compared with larger ASEAN markets, .MY still offers plenty of available names and landing opportunities, making it ideal for brand protection and growth.
