Frequently Asked Questions

  1. API Key is available through: Account Manager » API Settings
  2. No, you will not be charged any API credits if your Reverse Whois query does not match any WHOIS records.
  3. Depending upon your search query, the results might contain multiple WHOIS records of the same domain name. However all the WHOIS records will be unique, and there will be no duplicate results. We save additional WHOIS record of a domain name only when there are any changes compared to the previous record. This is how we archive historical WHOIS records.
  4. As we do not save Raw Whois text in our database, this is not included with Reverse Whois results.
  5. Yes, this can be activated through: Account Manager » Account Settings
