Hosting reseller program with a web hosting API.
For agencies and developers in India who sell hosting to their own clients. Order hosting and domains through our API, pay from a prepaid wallet, and earn commission back into it on every order and renewal. By invitation.
Everything an approved reseller gets
The API covers the whole life of a client's hosting: order, pay, renew, cancel, plus domains and event webhooks. The full reference with examples is in your client area once you are approved.
Order hosting by API
Place shared hosting orders from your own site or billing system, without logging in to ours.
Prepaid wallet
Top up once, and every API order is paid from the wallet. No card prompt or payment page in the middle of your flow.
Automatic renewals
Renewals of services ordered through the API are paid from the wallet automatically, so clients do not lapse while you are busy.
Commission into your wallet
Earn commission on every order and every renewal placed through the API, credited straight back to your wallet.
Domains
Check availability, register and renew domains through the same API and the same wallet. See domain prices.
Webhooks
Get notified of order, invoice and service events, so your own system stays in step without polling.
API keys with IP whitelisting
Create keys in the client area and lock each one to the IP addresses of your servers.
Cancel when needed
Cancel a client's service through the API when they leave, so it stops renewing from your wallet.
Your clients deal with you
In the API flow your clients never see HostKarle. You show your own prices on your own site, place the order through the API, and send your own invoice. What you charge is up to you.
- Orders, payments and renewals happen between your system and our API.
- Your client pays you, in your currency, on your terms.
- You decide your own pricing and packaging on top of our plans.
Be clear with clients about the panel
The hosting control panel and nameservers are our standard ones. If full branding matters for a client, ask us what fits your setup before you promise it. We would rather tell you up front.
Pick the program that fits how you work
Most people who recommend hosting are better off as affiliates. The reseller program suits businesses that already bill clients for hosting and want to automate it.

What is the HostKarle reseller program?
An invitation-only program for agencies, developers and IT firms that sell web hosting to their own clients. Approved resellers order shared hosting and domains through our API, pay from a prepaid wallet, and earn commission back into that wallet on every order and renewal placed through the API.
Is this a reseller hosting plan with sub-accounts?
No. We do not sell a reseller hosting plan at the moment. The reseller program is an API: each order you place is a standard HostKarle shared hosting account, set up under your reseller account and paid from your wallet.
How much commission do resellers earn?
The rate is agreed with each reseller when the account is approved. Commission is credited to your wallet on every order and every renewal placed through the API, so it can pay for the next order straight away.
How does the prepaid wallet work?
You top up the wallet from your client area. Orders placed through the API are paid from the wallet, and renewals of those services are paid from the wallet automatically, so keep enough balance for upcoming renewals.
What can I do through the API?
Order hosting, pay invoices from the wallet, cancel services, check domain availability, register and renew domains, and receive webhooks for order, invoice and service events. Approved resellers get the full API reference with examples in the client area.
How are API keys protected?
You create API keys in your client area and can whitelist the IP addresses allowed to use each key, so a leaked key cannot be used from anywhere else.
Will my clients see the HostKarle name?
Not in the API flow: you take the order on your own site, place it through the API and bill your client yourself, so they deal only with you. The hosting control panel and nameservers are our standard ones, so ask us what fits your setup before you promise full branding to a client.
Do API orders also earn affiliate commission?
No. Orders placed through the reseller API earn reseller commission into your wallet, not affiliate commission, so there is no double payout. If you only want to send people to us and let us bill them, the affiliate program pays 40% of the first payment.
How do I apply?
Email support@hostkarle.in, message us on WhatsApp or open a ticket. Tell us your business name, your website, how many hosting accounts and domains you expect to order a month, and how you plan to use the API.
