The calculator here compares buy/lease options on the IPv4.Global Marketplace and our Leasing Hub. To use it, simply specify the number of addresses you need and the time period you’d like to lease them.
The calculator shows the monthly rate IPv4.Global will charge lessees. It also shows the total cost from the lease for the entire term as entered. This is compared to the sale of the same size block.
The last row on the calculator shows the length of a lease where the total leasing cost is the same as the sale price.
*Prices used in this calculator are approximate and are derived from recent activity on the IPv4 Marketplace and Leasing Hub.

How does the auction and transfer process work for Buyers?
A summary of the process can be found here.
- Register and get access to the specific IPv4 address ranges available in the listed auctions. See “Why should I register?” Bidders are encouraged to seek RIR pre-approval prior to purchasing, see “What happens if I cannot qualify for a transfer with my Regional Internet Registry (RIR)?”
- Perform diligence. Bidders may perform whatever diligence they require prior to bidding in the auction, outside of contacting the Sellers directly. See “How do I know that the IPv4 addresses are clean, and not on any blacklists?”
- Bidders bid in an auction (or Buy Now) and at the conclusion of the auction period, the highest Bidder will receive an email notifying them they have won, with a link to the invoice. The invoice can also be found by logging into the site.
- Buyer remits the payment of the full purchase price into an escrow account, or Escrow.com, where the funds will be held until the IP addresses have successfully transferred into the Winning Bidder’s specified RIR account.
- After receipt of payment into escrow or Escrow.com is confirmed, the Seller submits the RIR transfer request. The Seller will forward the ticket number to an IPv4.Global representative, who will forward it to the Buyer, to include in their transfer request as they submit a request through their RIR online account.
- Buyers may be responsible for certain transfer fees prior to the RIR reviewing the ticket. See “Who pays the transfer fee(s)?”
- After the RIR fee(s) is paid, and the RIR(s) has completed its review, the RIR(s) will notify the parties that the transfer has been approved. Following approval, the RIR will notify the Buyer of any final steps (contracts or fees, for example), before updating their registry(ies) to reflect that the addresses have been transferred into the Buyer’s name. For transfers between regions, multiple RIRs will be involved. If transferring to ARIN, there is a transfer fee due to the RIR before they will complete the transfer ticket.
- Upon confirmation of the RIR registry updates, payment is released to the Seller, less the commission agreed to directly with the Seller.

How does the IPv4 leasing process work?
Once a user is registered on the Leasing Hub, they will be able to list their available subnets or search for subnets that match their preferences from our marketplace.
A user may lease IP addresses for a specified period allowing them to use the IP addresses for their business without having to purchase them outright. Once the lease expires, the user can renew it or return the IP addresses to the provider.
-
What are the benefits of leasing IPv4 addresses instead of buying them?
Leasing IPv4 addresses offers businesses the flexibility to scale their networks according to their needs. Instead of bearing the hefty costs associated with purchasing additional IP address space, businesses can opt to lease IPv4 addresses as per their requirements.
-
What are the costs involved in leasing IPv4 addresses?
We collect an initial set up fee, paid one-time, and the primary cost is the lease payment which is the amount paid to lease the IP addresses. This fee may vary based on the number of addresses and the duration of the lease.
We also collect an ongoing management fee which will be charged as commission for handling technical support or compliance monitoring.
Additional costs may accrue should there be a need for optional features such as geolocation services, rDNS management, or enhanced security.
