Lease terms

Commit for as long
as it makes sense.

Every owner sets their own minimum term, so the marketplace carries everything from a three-month project block to a five-year commitment. Longer terms generally price lower — here is what each one actually ties you to.

No blocks are listed yet. The terms below are the ones the marketplace supports; counts fill in as verified owners list space. List your space or tell us what you need.

Three months
0 blocks
The shortest term most owners accept. Suited to a project, a migration window, or seasonal capacity you know you will hand back.
None listed yet
Six months
0 blocks
Room to prove out a deployment before committing further, without the monthly premium a very short term carries.
None listed yet
One year
0 blocks
The most common commitment. Predictable cost, and owners will usually price a year below a three-month term for the same block.
None listed yet
Three years
0 blocks
For infrastructure you are confident about. Longer commitments give the owner revenue certainty, which is what they price against.
None listed yet
Five years
0 blocks
Effectively permanent address space without the capital cost or the registry transfer. Rare, and negotiated per block.

How term length works

A minimum term is a floor, not a ceiling.

Before the minimum

You are committed for the months you agreed to. This is the part that gives the owner revenue certainty, and it is why longer terms price lower.

After the minimum

The lease rolls month to month automatically. Nothing to renew, nothing to re-sign. Either side can give notice at that point.

Throughout

The rate is fixed for the term you agreed. Blacklist monitoring, the LOA and the routing objects are included the whole time.

Questions

About terms and commitments.

What does the minimum term actually commit me to?

You agree to pay for that many months. After it ends the lease continues month to month until either side gives notice. You cannot end a lease inside the minimum term — that commitment is what makes the space worth leasing out in the first place.

Can I extend a lease after the minimum term?

You do not need to. Leases roll month to month automatically once the minimum has passed. If you want a new fixed term at a better rate, ask — owners will often price a longer recommitment below the rolling rate.

Do longer terms cost less per month?

Usually. Owners set their own pricing, but the pattern is consistent: a twelve-month commitment typically prices below a three-month one for the same block, because it removes the risk of the block sitting idle between tenants.

What happens if I need to hand the space back early?

Inside the minimum term you remain liable for the remaining months. Talk to us first — if another tenant wants the block, an owner will sometimes agree to release you early rather than hold you to it.

Who sets the minimum term?

The owner of each block, per listing. That is why the same size block can carry a different minimum in two listings, and why you can filter the marketplace by it.

What if I miss a payment mid-term?

The invoice is marked overdue and a ten-day grace period starts, with reminders at day three and day seven. If it is still unpaid at day ten the route authorisation is withdrawn and the lease suspends. Nothing is cut off without warning.
