Service Capabilities

CapabilityDetails
Offer TypeLease only. IPXO does not sell address space; purchases and transfers are routed to its partner marketplace IPv4Connect, operated by Brander Group.
Lease ConfigurationsTwo options per listing: non-committed rolling leases with a monthly billing cycle, or fixed commitment terms with a negotiated duration and locked price.
Commitment TermsSupported. Custom commitments fix price and duration for the term, protecting the prefix from repricing or reassignment. Negotiated with an IPXO account manager.
Supported RIRsAll five (ARIN, RIPE NCC, APNIC, LACNIC, AFRINIC) through IPXO managed LIR services. Current lease campaign inventory highlights ARIN, RIPE NCC and AFRINIC.
IPv4 / IPv6IPv4 is the leasing marketplace focus. A free /48 IPv6 block is included with a Next-Gen IPAM subscription.
BYOIP SupportYes. Documented BYOIP integrations for AWS, Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure, IBM Cloud and Cloudflare, using the leased prefix with IPXO-managed routing objects.
Included ManagementReputation monitoring, abuse handling, geolocation correction, rDNS and BGP/RPKI tooling ship with the platform rather than as add-ons.

Technical Requirements

RequirementDetails
Minimum Prefix Size (Lease)/24 for a standard marketplace lease. The current annual campaign applies its rate from a single /24 up to large allocations with no subnet size limit.
Minimum Prefix Size (Commitments)/23 or larger. Custom lease terms are only offered on /23 and bigger prefixes.
IRR / RADb ObjectsCreated and maintained automatically by IPXO as part of subnet assignment.
RPKI / ROA / LOALOA and ROA are issued in the portal, with delegated RPKI and rDNS management available. Both lessee and holder must keep validation objects in place for the whole lease.
Geolocation PoliciesGeolocation dashboard compares six providers so inconsistencies can be spotted and corrected. IPXO publishes a geofeed at geofeed.ipxo.com/geofeed.txt.
Cloud-Specific RequirementsCloudflare BYOIP requires a signed commitment of 12 months or more. AWS BYOIP uses a scoped IAM role with an External ID (see the automation section below).

Cost and Limitations

ItemDetails
Fees / PricingMarket-driven monthly pricing. Published examples include a /24 at $63.00 per month (about $0.246 per IP) and a /22 at $267.50 per month.
Campaign PricingA limited campaign offers $3 per IP per year (about $0.25 per IP per month) on a minimum three-year term, billed annually in advance, with the rate locked for the term.
SubscriptionsNext-Gen IPAM is a separate subscription: tier 1 (up to /22) is free for the first year then $10 per month, rising to $450 per month at tier 4 (up to /12). Subscriptions auto-renew and prepaid fees are non-refundable.
IP Holder FeeA standard 5 percent platform fee is deducted monthly from monetization revenue.
Price ChangesOn non-committed leases the holder must give at least 90 days notice and cannot raise the price by more than 5 percent. No configuration changes apply during an active commitment.
RenewalsFixed commitments renew for the same duration unless cancelled: 90 days notice from the holder or 30 days from the lessee.
Early TerminationCommitted leases cannot be terminated automatically in the portal; requests are assessed individually. On payment default IPXO can terminate immediately and the lessee still owes the price through the end of the commitment period.
Traffic / Use RestrictionsAcceptable Use Policy and compliance screening are enforced throughout the lease; abusive use is prohibited.
Other LimitationsAdministrative, processing, abuse-management and cancellation fees may apply. Returned prefixes can enter a post-lease quarantine before relisting, and availability varies by RIR region and listing.

Automation & Developer Access

  • API Access: Yes. A REST API behind the apigw.ipxo.com gateway, with OAuth2 client-credentials tokens issued by hydra.ipxo.com/oauth2/token.
  • Credentials: App Keys (beta) are created per company in the portal, and OAuth2 scopes map to individual APIs such as billing or DNS.
  • Documented Flows: marketplace search, cart and checkout for a lease, ASN assignment with LOA creation, RPKI/ROA and IRR records, invoices and payouts, and subscription termination.
  • Terraform / SDKs: No official provider or SDK. Automation is built directly against the REST API.
  • Cloud Automation: AWS BYOIP provisioning is driven by a CloudFormation-created IAM role plus IPXO orchestration, covered in the section below.

Abuse & Reputation Management

  • IP Reputation Monitoring: Yes. Blocklist detection with monthly reputation scans and a reputation dashboard.
  • Blacklist Removal Support: Yes. Guidance and delisting assistance from the IPXO team.
  • Abuse Handling: Automated abuse checks run for the duration of the lease, backed by Acceptable Use Policy enforcement and abuse-management fees for violations.
  • Abuse Contact: abuse@ipxo.com, or a ticket through help.ipxo.com.
  • Post-Termination: Continuing to announce a prefix after the lease ends is treated as hijacking and can trigger reassignment blocks and additional fees.

AWS BYOIP Automated Provisioning

IPXO turns the multi-step, error-prone AWS BYOIP runbook into a single CloudFormation action backed by automated orchestration.

Why automate BYOIP on AWS
  • Avoid the AWS public IPv4 charge of $0.005 per IP/hour on BYOIP addresses.
  • Least-privilege access: a BYOIP-only IAM role with a unique External ID and 1-hour expiry.
  • Auditable: repeatable automation with a clean CloudTrail trail of what changed and when.

Start from QuickFormation

IPXO-provided CloudFormation quick-create link

Begin from an IPXO-provided CloudFormation quick-create link. It opens AWS CloudFormation with the template URL and required parameters (templateURL, stackName, param_VendorAccountId, param_ExternalId) prefilled. Values are prefilled by IPXO and should not be modified.
