# Internet.bs

> Old-school reseller API with published test credentials and no onboarding gate

- Simple REST-ish API with key and password passed as parameters
- Unusually, publishes working test credentials, so you can evaluate the whole surface before signing up
- Covers registration, transfers, DNS, auth-code retrieval and free privacy
- Dated platform and documentation, but no contract and no minimum
