How 365i Actually Registers Your Domain: The Platform Partnership Explained (With WHOIS Proof)

Last week a customer ran 365i past ChatGPT. The AI came back with a polite question: "Can you confirm 365i is a Nominet-accredited registrar? I checked Nominet's public registrar list and could not find them." That is not the first time this question has landed in our inbox, and it will not be the last. It is also, frankly, the right question to ask before you place a client portfolio with a host you have not used before.

So here is the honest, slightly contrarian answer: "Are you a Nominet member?" is the wrong question for a UK domain customer. The right question is, "Can I verify the registration chain, and is the company at the end of it real?" We are about to show you how to answer that for 365i in under sixty seconds, with a live Nominet WHOIS lookup, the Companies House record, and the email exchange we had with Neil Lewis when he asked the same thing before moving 30+ client domains to us in 2024.

If you want to skip the explanation and run the check yourself first, our own free WHOIS Lookup tool queries RDAP directly and returns the same data Nominet returns to anyone, with no sign-up. Try it on 365i.co.uk. The result will look very close to what we are about to walk through below.

The Question ChatGPT Keeps Asking

Nominet runs the .uk namespace. Every direct .uk registrar that submits registrations to Nominet does so under an IPS tag held with Nominet. Domain providers can also supply .uk domains through a tag-holding registrar partner, which is what 365i does. Nominet publishes a list of members and a list of registrars on their registrar portal. ChatGPT looked at that list, did not find "365i", and asked us about it. Fair enough. The mistake is not in the looking. The mistake is in assuming the curated list is the canonical source of truth about who is allowed to supply a .uk domain.

It is not. The canonical source is the Nominet WHOIS itself. The .uk WHOIS is unique in one important way: where a registrar has associated reseller data with a domain, the output labels two parties. The "Registered through" field names the party that took your order, and the "Registrar" field names the party that holds the IPS tag at Nominet. Most other registries on the planet only show the registrar. For 365i-supplied .uk domains, both fields are populated, which is exactly the disclosure you want. The two-field structure is by Nominet's design, and on our domains nothing is hidden because Nominet does not let us hide it.

Neil Lewis spotted this in 2024. He runs a small UK web design agency and was about to move 30+ client domains to us. Before he placed the order he had run WHOIS on a couple of our existing customer domains and noticed the registrar field said something he did not recognise. He emailed me directly and asked the question straight: "What tag will my client domains carry, and why can't I find 365i on Nominet's site?"

The answer is the rest of this article. Neil placed the order. The transparency itself is what convinced him. He told me as much: he had been burned by a host that was evasive about exactly this question, and he was looking for the opposite signal.

What Nominet's WHOIS Actually Shows for 365i.co.uk

Here is the live Nominet WHOIS output for our own domain, queried direct from Nominet's WHOIS server at whois.nic.uk the morning this article went live. Not a screenshot from marketing. The actual bytes that came back over port 43 at 09:41 UTC on 22 May 2026:

    Domain name:
        365i.co.uk

    Data validation:
        Nominet was able to match the registrant's name and address

        ns4.365i.co.uk            104.196.137.209

    WHOIS lookup made at 09:41:50 22-May-2026

Five things in that output are worth pointing at.

One. Nominet ran data validation on 16 July 2021 and matched our registrant details against a third-party data source. Nominet attempts that check on all new registrations and on every change of registrant details. The detail worth noting here is not that 365i.co.uk was singled out, but that the match succeeded: the address Nominet holds for us is consistent with what a third-party data source had on file at that date.

Two. The "Registered through" field is the consumer-facing name. That is us. 365i. The URL Nominet records is our website. That is the brand and the address you pay, the team you ring when something goes wrong, the support line you email at 9pm on a Tuesday.

Three. The "Registrar" field is the IPS-tag holder at Nominet. That is 20i Ltd, with the tag STACK. 20i is our platform partner. The tag STACK appears on the WHOIS output for every .uk domain that lives behind their platform, which includes ours. We have routed registrations through 20i since they were founded (20I LIMITED, Companies House 09775671, incorporated 14 September 2015). The relationship is documented openly in 20i's own support pages, and anyone running WHOIS sees the result.

Four. The expiry date is 27 March 2028. We are 23 months out from renewal on a domain we have held since 2020, on an eight-year forward registration. That is not a Black Friday trick. It is us eating our own dog food: we tell customers to register their domain for the longest term they're comfortable with, and we register ours that way too.

Five. The nameservers are ns1-4.365i.co.uk, but the IP addresses are in Google Cloud's ranges (146.148.x.x, 130.211.x.x, 104.196.x.x). That tells you the authoritative DNS for 365i.co.uk runs on Google Cloud. Same disclosure model: our brand, Google's infrastructure. Nominet records what's actually there.

You can re-run this lookup any time you want. whois 365i.co.uk from a Unix terminal works against Nominet's legacy port-43 WHOIS, which is the current source for the two-field "Registered through" / "Registrar" disclosure shown above. Nominet's own WHOIS lookup works the same way. Our free RDAP-powered WHOIS tool uses RDAP, the modern structured successor protocol Nominet operates alongside legacy WHOIS. Either way the result will not change because we want it to. That is the point.

RDAP returns the structured, machine-readable version of the same chain you just saw in the traditional WHOIS code block. For a 365i-supplied .uk domain the widget surfaces both sides: Registrar: 20i Ltd (handle STACK, matching the IPS tag) and Reseller: 365i. That is exactly what Nominet's legacy WHOIS labels "Registrar" and "Registered through", just expressed as RDAP roles rather than free-text fields. Both sources agree on every fact they share.

The Registration Chain, in Plain Language

When you register a .uk domain through us, four parties are involved. Working outward from you:

1. You, the registrant. Your name and address sit in Nominet's database. What appears on the public WHOIS is governed by Nominet's consent rules: a registrant's name and address are not displayed unless the registrant consents to display. For UK individuals the default is non-display, at no extra cost. For 365i.co.uk we consent to display, because we want the address to be verifiable.
2. 365i, the consumer-facing brand. The legal entity is BSolve IT Limited, Companies House 04607330, incorporated 3 December 2002, registered office in Kettering, Northamptonshire. We have traded as 365i since 2001. Your payment goes to us. Your support tickets come to us. The renewal email comes from us.
3. 20i Ltd, the platform partner. They hold the STACK tag at Nominet. They run the registrar-facing API that submits the registration request to the Nominet registry. They have done so since they were founded, and we have routed registrations through them since their founding.
4. Nominet, the .uk registry. They write the registration into the .uk zone, they publish the WHOIS record, and they bill 20i wholesale for each domain on a quarterly cycle.

For international TLDs (.com, .net, .org, .io and the rest) the first three boxes are the same. The fourth changes. The international registrar is Tucows / OpenSRS, one of the biggest ICANN-accredited registrars in the world. That relationship runs through 20i as well. The final hop is the relevant TLD's registry operator (for example, Verisign for .com and .net, PIR for .org). Our privacy policy names both Nominet and Tucows / OpenSRS openly as the registry-side data processors for your domain. Not buried in a footnote. Listed plainly.

We advertise the arrangement openly, because the alternative is letting an AI tell our prospective customers we are evasive. If you want to check how any UK domain provider sources their .uk registrations, the test is the same one we walk through in this article: run WHOIS on a domain they manage, read the "Registrar" / IPS tag field, and decide for yourself whether the brand at the front of the chain matches the company at the tag.

And for International TLDs: bsolveit.com via Tucows / OpenSRS

The .uk WHOIS is the easy half. Anyone with a Unix terminal or a browser can verify our .uk chain in a minute, and Nominet's two-field disclosure does most of the work for us. The international half deserves the same treatment, because the chain looks slightly different and the registrar at the end of it is not 20i Ltd. Let us walk through a domain we own outright: bsolveit.com, registered by BSolve IT Limited a month after the company was incorporated.

Here is the live RDAP output for bsolveit.com, queried from Verisign's authoritative .com RDAP service at rdap.verisign.com as this article went live:

What RDAP actually exposes here is two parties, and only two parties. Be honest about what is verifiable from this output and what is not.

The Registrar field returns Tucows Domains Inc., IANA Registrar ID 69. Tucows is one of the largest ICANN-accredited registrars in the world. That is independently verifiable from the line above. The Registry Domain ID on the line above ends with -VRSN, which is Verisign's namespace identifier as the .com registry operator. The "Related RDAP service" link in the same record points at opensrs.rdap.tucows.com, which is Tucows's reseller-channel RDAP layer (OpenSRS).

What RDAP does not expose for a .com is the equivalent of Nominet's "Registered through" line. ICANN's .com RDAP schema has one Registrar field and no reseller field. That is a property of the schema, not a 365i choice. So the layers above Tucows / OpenSRS (365i as the customer-facing brand, 20i Ltd as the platform partner that handles the OpenSRS reseller account on our behalf) are not in this RDAP output. We know about them because we run them. RDAP does not.

That asymmetry is the honest version of the international story. The .com WHOIS / RDAP chain that the world can independently verify ends at Tucows + Verisign. The chain that takes you from there back to you is documented in our privacy policy (which names 20i Ltd and Tucows / OpenSRS openly as data processors) and in this article, but it is not in the registry's machine-readable record. If you want to verify the international half of our chain on a domain we supply for you, run whois bsolveit.com in a terminal, or query it in the RDAP widget further up the page, and read the registrar line: Tucows. Then confirm with your invoice and the privacy policy that the layers above Tucows are who we say they are.

A second example, for anyone curious: mcneece.com, Mark's personal domain, registered on 18 May 1998. RDAP returns the same two parties on the verifiable side: registrar Tucows Domains Inc., registry operator Verisign. Twenty-eight years of continuous registration, on the same registrar-of-record we route customer .com registrations through.

Why 20i, Why STACK, and Why That's a Good Thing

365i started in 2001. We have always operated as a brand sitting on top of partner infrastructure rather than running our own data centres and our own Nominet membership in parallel. There are two reasons for that, and neither is hidden.

The first is operational. Running a self-managed Nominet tag means handling EPP failovers, the renewal queue, abuse-team escalations, registry billing reconciliation, and the SLA paperwork that comes with being a Nominet channel partner in your own right. It is a full-time technical operation. 20i does it well, at scale, with redundancy we could not justify on the size of our domain book. Outsourcing the infrastructure to a specialist while keeping the customer relationship in-house is the same trade-off every accountancy firm makes when they pick a cloud accounting platform.

The second is price. We do not load profit on top of the wholesale domain cost. UK domain registration and renewal prices at 365i are flat across the year, no introductory tricks, registration price equal to renewal price. That works because we treat domains as a service we provide alongside hosting, not as the margin engine of the business. Going direct to 20i as a customer would not save you money. Their customer-facing domain prices are higher than ours, because they price their reseller channel below their retail channel by design.

Could you go direct to 20i? Yes, you can. The site is open to anyone. You would pay more, you would not have us in the support seat, and the WHOIS would show "Registered through: 20i" instead of "Registered through: 365i". For most of our customers, the maths and the relationship both come out the same direction.

Sean's Question: "Why Does WHOIS Say 20i?"

Sean Hamilton has been a customer for years. He runs Brewood Removals, a Midlands removals firm, and his domain has been with us since long before this article existed. One afternoon Sean rang in with exactly the WHOIS question you might be asking: "Why is your IPS tag STACK? And when I run WHOIS, why does it show 20i and not 365i?"

It was a fair question and there was no spin to apply. The answer is what you just read above. 365i is the consumer brand and the support relationship. 20i is the platform partner. The WHOIS shows both, because Nominet labels both.

Sean stayed. He told me why, and I am paraphrasing his actual words because they are useful for anyone else weighing this up. He likes the personal support. He likes that going direct to 20i would not save him money, because 20i's retail prices sit above ours. He likes the flat pricing. He likes that we make next to nothing on domains and do not try to pretend otherwise.

Sean also runs a second business with a different domain. That one sits at 123-Reg on an introductory £1 deal. He is straight about why. The brand-new project does not yet need a registrar relationship; it needs the cheapest first-year cost. The renewal next year will hit 123-Reg's standard rates, which sit several pounds above ours. He has not moved it across yet because it is not yet worth his time. That is exactly the right way to think about cheap intro deals: they are fine for a year, they are not a long-term plan. We covered the wider pattern in the real cost of cheap UK domains, with eight registrars compared.

What the Nominet Registrar List Does and Doesn't Tell You

Nominet publish a list of registrars at registrars.nominet.uk. The list is real, useful, and incomplete in a specific way that ChatGPT's question stumbled into.

The list shows companies that hold a tag directly under one of three classifications: Accredited Channel Partner, Channel Partner, or Self-Managed. It is structured around tag classification, not around customer-facing brand. Companies that act as resellers on top of a Channel Partner's tag are not separately listed. Most of the UK hosting market falls into this category. Search the list for the brand on the front of any major UK web host's site and you will find a result for some of them, no result for many of them, and a different parent company's name for others. None of that is a sign of impropriety. It is a sign that the list was built for one purpose (tag governance) and is being read for another (customer due diligence).

So when ChatGPT looks for "365i" on that list and does not find us, it has not actually found anything bad. It has found a limit of the list. The list does not catalogue brands. It catalogues tags. Our brand sits on 20i's STACK tag. The WHOIS output for any of our customer domains says so out loud.

The right check is not the registrar list. The right check is the WHOIS for a domain we are claiming to manage, plus the company record at Companies House, plus the consistency between the two. Both are public. Both are free. Both take less than a minute. We cover the procedure in the checklist below.

How Agencies Vet Us, and Why 50+ Client Domains Stay

Several UK WordPress agencies hold portfolios of 50+ client domains with us. Some registered with us from the moment they started trading. Others transferred portfolios in. UK domain transfers cost zero pounds at 365i, and the process is fast: an IPS tag change at the current registrar takes about ten minutes to propagate.

An agency principal making a portfolio decision is a different buyer from an SME picking a domain for their own one-page site. They ask harder questions because more is at stake. The partnership question, the WHOIS question, the renewal-pricing question, the transfer-out question, the data-processor question. Every one of those has come up at the pre-sales stage at some point. None of them has been a deal-breaker, because the honest answer to each one is good. We have never lost an agency customer to a "well, actually you're not really a Nominet member" pushback.

The mechanic of agency vetting is roughly: a principal will move two or three pilot domains across, run a transfer test, run a WHOIS on each, check what the renewal email looks like, ask a support question to see how fast we reply, then move the rest. Six weeks later the agency has fifty domains with us and a hosting-and-domain consolidation that has saved them administrative hours every month.

If you are an agency thinking about doing the same thing, the practical mechanics are in our walkthrough on transferring a domain to 365i.

How to Verify Any UK Domain Registrar (5-Step Checklist)

This works for us. It also works for any host you might be considering. You do not need a paid SEO tool, an AI, or a hosting forum opinion to run it.

1. Run a WHOIS on one of their existing customer domains. Pick a domain you know they host (their own works, or a portfolio site they mention in a case study). Use a Unix whois command, Nominet's WHOIS tool, or our free WHOIS Lookup. Read both fields, "Registered through" and "Registrar". An honest registrar's brand and partner names should match what the marketing says.
2. Check the company record at Companies House. The trading name on the website should map to a real UK legal entity. Confirm the registered office, the incorporation date, and the company status. Dissolved companies should not be selling domains.
3. Compare registration to renewal pricing. A registrar that advertises one figure for year one and refuses to publish the renewal figure is hiding a margin. Look for a price page that states the renewal figure as plainly as the registration figure. If only the £1 intro number is visible, scroll until you find the small print, or assume the worst.
4. Check the transfer-out policy. A registrar should let you leave for free, on any UK TLD, with no admin fees and no delay games. International TLDs require an EPP / auth code released to you on request. Anyone holding your domain hostage to a "transfer fee" or a "release fee" is not a long-term home.
5. Email their support before you place the order. Ask a real question. Note how long the reply takes, who signs it, and whether they answer the actual question or paste a knowledge base link. The support you experience at the pre-sales stage is roughly the support you will experience for the next ten years.

Run that on us. We have nothing to hide and we will look better as a result of you running the check than we would if you took our marketing at face value.

For UK Agencies Moving a 30+ Client Portfolio

The five steps above are honest consumer advice. They are not yet an agency procurement checklist. If you are about to move a portfolio of client domains to any new registrar, the bar is higher because you are answering for someone else's business, not your own. Here are seven additional checks an agency principal should put to a UK registrar before committing a portfolio, with our specific answers to each one.

1. The data-processing chain

Ask the registrar to name every party that receives or processes the registrant's name and address, the DNS records, and the mailbox data attached to each domain. If they cannot give you a list, walk away. If the privacy policy lists "third parties" without names, that is a "no" dressed up as a "yes".

Our answer. Domain registrant data is processed by 365i (BSolve IT Limited, Companies House 04607330) as the customer-facing data controller; by 20i Ltd as the hosting and domain platform partner (which provisions the account, DNS, mailbox, and Timeline Backup, and submits the .uk registration to Nominet under IPS tag STACK); by Nominet as the .uk registry; and by Tucows / OpenSRS for international gTLD registrations. All four parties are named openly in our privacy policy, with their role described, not buried in a footnote. To our knowledge no other subprocessor handles your registrant data inside that chain; if that ever changes we will update the privacy policy and the affected customers in writing before the change takes effect.

2. Account ownership and registrant control

For each client domain, the client must remain the registrant in the registry record, must be able to authorise their own transfer-out, and must be able to revoke the agency's access without the agency holding the domain hostage. A registrar that treats the agency as the registrant by default is a single-point-of-failure for every client in the portfolio.

Our answer. Agencies can manage a portfolio of client domains under a single 365i account for billing and operational simplicity, while each domain keeps the client as the registrant in the underlying registry record. (Whether the registrant's name and address are displayed publicly is a separate question governed by Nominet's consent-based disclosure rules for .uk, or by the relevant registry's policy for international TLDs.) Transfer-out authority sits with the registrant. If an agency relationship ends, the client can authorise the IPS tag change (for .uk) or release the EPP code (for international TLDs) directly with us, without the outgoing agency needing to agree. We do not require an agency-to-client contract before unlocking transfer.

3. Account security

Two-factor authentication on the registrar account is the baseline. Beyond that, a procurement-grade host should support: DNSSEC for any TLD that allows it, registry locks where the registry supports them, change-notification emails on every DNS or registrant edit, and a documented account-recovery procedure that is not "email us and hope".

Our answer. Two-factor authentication is available on every My365i hosting account via the standard 20i platform. DNSSEC is supported on .uk through Nominet and on the ICANN gTLDs that publish DS records. Change notifications fire on registrar edits and on DNS-zone changes. Account recovery requires identity verification against the billing record on file; we do not reset access on the strength of a single email. We will not pretend we operate a registry-lock service we do not. For high-value client domains where literal Nominet registry lock matters, we will say so and advise accordingly rather than imply otherwise.

4. Exit testing before commitment

The right way to vet a new registrar with a 30-domain portfolio is not to move all 30 at once. It is to move two or three low-stakes domains in, then move at least one back out a few weeks later, and time both steps. A registrar that is happy to take 30 domains but slow or awkward when one of them leaves is showing you the only thing that matters.

Our answer. UK domain inbound transfers cost zero pounds and take roughly ten minutes once the current registrar releases the IPS tag. UK outbound transfers are the same: we release the tag on request, no fee, no delay games. International TLD inbound transfers cost the renewal fee plus a free additional year on the registration. International outbound transfers release the EPP / auth code on request with no fee. We document our outbound procedure in the same article as our inbound procedure: how to transfer a domain to 365i. The reverse direction reads identically. This is the test we want you to run on us.

5. Operational resilience

Three things can change on the supplier side: the registrar can change platform terms, the underlying platform can have an outage, or one of the upstream parties (the registry operator, or the ICANN-accredited registrar) can stop offering a service. A portfolio buyer is entitled to know what happens to their client domains in each case.

Our answer. 365i has operated as the same legal entity (BSolve IT Limited) for over 23 years, with the same platform partner (20i Ltd) since 20i was founded. Standard Terms allow wholesale price changes to be passed through with at least 14 days' written notice; that clause has rarely been exercised on UK retail renewals over the years. Platform outages are handled by 20i's data-centre redundancy; the IPS tag STACK remains assigned to 20i regardless of whether their platform is having a bad day. If 20i ever ceased operating as a tag holder, .uk domains on the platform would be subject to Nominet's standard registrant-protection process for transferring tags away from a non-operating registrar, and we would notify portfolio customers in writing before any such transfer landed. For international TLDs, the equivalent fallback runs through ICANN's de-accredited / failing registrar transfer process, which is published by ICANN rather than guaranteed by us; the practical effect is that no domain becomes orphaned because of a registrar's failure, but the chain of custody is registry-led, not a backstop we contractually own.

6. Mailbox inactivity for low-traffic client mailboxes

The 10 GB mailbox included with every domain at 365i is a real working inbox for SMEs, but the platform applies an inactivity rule: a mailbox that receives no logins or incoming mail for 100 consecutive days may be removed. For an agency managing 30+ client portfolios, that has to be actively managed for any client mailbox that is rarely used in practice (think info@ or accounts@ on a quiet brochure site).

Our answer. The 100-day rule applies to the mailbox only; the domain itself remains registered for its paid term regardless. The workaround for a low-traffic inbox is to set up automatic forwarding to a more active address. Forwarding traffic counts as activity. Agencies running portfolios of mostly-dormant brochure-site mailboxes should default to "forward to a monitored mailbox" rather than "active inbox", and we will help configure that at no charge.

7. Support escalation path

Agencies need a faster escalation route than the public support queue for DNS, transfer, or email incidents that touch a live client site. Ideally that route is human, named, and accountable. "Open a ticket" is not an answer.

Our answer. 365i is operated by a small, dedicated UK team. We respond seven days a week, including evenings, weekends, and bank holidays, although we are not literally 24/7 (the data-centre and platform monitoring is 24x7x365, but human customer support is human-shaped). For agencies with 25+ live domains, replies from the founding team come directly, not via a tier-1 queue. Our service record for critical DNS or transfer incidents during business hours has been a same-hour response in practice, and that is the standard we work to. We do not contractualise it as an SLA in editorial copy; if you need a written response-time commitment for a portfolio migration, ask and we will document it in your onboarding.

Those seven checks are the difference between an SME-grade hosting purchase and an agency-grade procurement decision. Whichever UK registrar you are considering (us included), put all seven to them in writing, save the answers, and move two or three pilot domains before committing the portfolio.

The Bit That Isn't About WHOIS

One last beat, because the rest of this article has been about disclosure, structure, and tags. Domains are not really about any of that. They are about the people who own them.

On the morning of Friday 28 November 2025 a customer named Yasmin Amevor, who runs the brand Eff The Lawyer, placed an order with us and registered effthelawyer.org. She had meant to register the .com. Domain orders cannot be unwound after the registry has accepted them. The .org was real. The money was already with the registry. By any reasonable contract reading, that was Yasmin's mistake and Yasmin's bill to fix.

That is not how this turned out. Yasmin emailed support at 09:14 apologising. I replied at 09:52 saying we would register the correct effthelawyer.com in her name, free of charge, the same morning. At 10:31 the .com was live on her account. Total cost to Yasmin beyond the .org she had already paid for: zero. Total cost to 365i: one .com domain at wholesale, plus a small amount of admin time. Yasmin has consented to her name and brand being used in this piece.

That story has nothing to do with the WHOIS chain. It has everything to do with whether the company at the front of the chain is one you want to be on the other end of a mistake with.
