Wholesale · direct contract

A managed clean /24, with the paperwork done in 24 hours

Lease a whole IPv4 /24 from our RIPE-registered space, under a direct contract with us. We issue the LOA, ROA and route object, delegate reverse DNS, publish a geofeed, and check the prefix against public blocklists every day. If it gets listed, we delist it or swap it.

Priced by contract, with no public price list. Write to wholesale@penduses.com.

Example prefix from a documentation range.

Who it is for

Networks that announce their own address space and need a /24 they can trust to start out in good standing.

Hosting providers and ISPs

Add a /24 for a new region, a new product line or a growing customer base, without going through a marketplace.

SaaS, CDN and cloud networks

Services that send traffic to sites which score source addresses, and want space with no listing history on the lists we watch.

Small networks with their own ASN

You already run BGP and only lack IPv4. You announce the /24 yourself and we handle the registry paperwork.

What is included

LOA, ROA and route object in 24 hours

Once we have your ASN and the details we need, we issue the Letter of Authorization, create the RPKI ROA and the route object within 24 hours.

rDNS delegation

We delegate the reverse zone of your /24 to your own name servers, so your PTR records are yours to manage.

Geofeed

We publish a geofeed (RFC 8805) entry for your prefix with the country and city you tell us, and show you how to reference it from your inetnum object. A geofeed is a hint: geolocation providers decide whether and when to use it.

Daily blocklist monitoring

Before handover we run a full check of the /24, and hand it over only if it is not listed. During the lease we check it against public blocklists every day and tell you about any change.

Delist-or-swap commitment

If a monitored blocklist lists your /24, we start the delisting and, if it is still listed after the window written in your contract, we replace the prefix with another clean /24.

Direct contract

You deal with us, not with a marketplace. One contract, one price, no marketplace fee.

How it works

Tell us what you need

Your ASN, how many /24s, where you announce them and what they are for. We tell you what is available and what it costs.
Sign the contract

A direct lease contract with the term, the price, the blocklists we monitor and the delist-or-swap window.
We do the paperwork

LOA, ROA and route object within 24 hours, plus rDNS delegation and your geofeed entry.
You announce, we watch

You announce the /24 from your ASN. We check it every day and act when something changes.

What “clean” means, and what it does not

At handover, the prefix is not listed on the blocklists named in your contract.
After handover, its reputation depends mostly on how you use it. We monitor it and act on listings, but we cannot promise that a third party will never list or block it.
Leased /24s are kept separate from the address space we use for our own retail services, so another customer’s traffic cannot affect your prefix.
We aim to review abuse reports about your prefix within 24 hours. That is a review target, not a promise that the cause is fixed in that time.
A geofeed is a hint to geolocation providers. We publish it, and we cannot promise that any provider will apply it.
You are responsible for what leaves your addresses. Our acceptable use policy applies, and you need a working abuse contact.
The contract, not the website terms, governs a lease. The commitments on this page are summaries; the contract has the details.

Questions

Is there a price list?

No. Wholesale leases are priced by contract, depending on the term and the number of prefixes. Tell us what you need and we will send a quote.

Do I need my own ASN?

Normally yes. You announce the /24 from your own autonomous system, and we issue the authorization that lets you do so. If you only need a few addresses and do not run BGP, see IP Tunnel.

Which blocklists do you monitor?

We agree the list with you in the contract. It covers the public DNS blocklists that mail and abuse systems commonly query. We check them daily and report changes to you.

What happens if my /24 gets listed?

We tell you, start the delisting request, and work with you to find the cause. If the listing is still there after the window in your contract, we swap the /24 for another clean one. A listing caused by your own abuse of the acceptable use policy is handled differently, and the contract says how.

Do you sell the prefix?

No. It is a lease. The addresses stay in our RIPE-registered space and you use them for the term of the contract.

Can I choose the location?

You choose where you announce the prefix. Tell us the country and city you want in the geofeed, and we publish it.

Is there a service-level agreement?

The retail pilot has none. For a wholesale lease, the commitments that apply are the ones written in the contract: the 24-hour paperwork turnaround, the daily monitoring and the delist-or-swap window.
