Wild West Domains Storefront - Create Customer Account via API?

[alanchau]

Is it possible to create a customer account at a Wild West Domains storefront (securepaynet) via an API or other automated means?

Thanks!

EDIT: Or... if I sign up for API Reseller as well, can domains registered through this API be push to an account at the storefront? That could be a possible alternative...

Yes, it is possible to create a storefront and do just about any action with the WildWestDomains API. GoDaddy/WildWestDomains does have a reseller API and you need to signup for that to get access to it..

To the best of my knowledge the domains can't be transferred from one WildWestDomain account to another. Also, a domain in your WildWestDomains customer account cannot be directly transferred to your GoDaddy account as these two are technically separate "entities." I'm pretty sure you would register the domain through your WildWestDomains storefront/API, and then have to perform a transfer after 60-Days to GoDaddy or another WildWestDomains storefront.

Might wanna contact WildWestDomains and ask them to make sure..

Thanks a lot for the info!

Too bad it's unlike Enom where a subaccount created via an API command can be accessed at their Instant Reseller storefront... Reason why I would like to use WWD is because they're the only storefront I believe that provides direct support to customers...

Considering that the API Reseller already provides a minimal storefront at dcc.securepaynet.net, I don't know why they wouldn't allow API access on their Pro Reseller progid...

EDIT: Confirmed with godaddy that you cannot push to another reseller account even if it's also belonging to you. This is an interesting problem for me. I guess I'm gonna look for a registrar with free/cheap grace deletes and an API to "hold" the domain until I can manually register it...
