3. Background
Brander Group executives have been in the data center and telecom space since 2007. Over the years, we have developed
countless strategic relationships which grant us access to clean IPv4 address blocks in the ARIN, RIPE and APNIC regions.
From the beginning, we worked closely with policy makers from each region to fully understand the transfer policies, potential
pitfalls, market dynamics and requirements to ensure a painless transfer from one party to another. Thereafter we incorporated
best practices into our company’s core process and guidelines to address the growing demands of our global client base as it
relates to IPv4 and IPv6 strategy
Our comprehensive service offering helps clients navigate the intricacies of transferring IPv4 subnets in a global marketplace.
We protect everyone’s best interests to ensure a legal and seamless transfer of assets in every transaction.
Brander Group’s client base spans over 60 countries around the world. We safely process 30 – 50 global IPv4 transfers each
month in ARIN, RIPE and APNIC regions for block sizes ranging from a /24 up to a /12. As we continue to make a positive
impact in the IPv4 market, we strive to consistently offer a premium service and quality experience to every client.

6. Seller and IPv4 Subnet Qualification
Brander Group fully qualifies every seller prior to brining their IPv4 subnet into inventory. We work with the respective RIR to
ensure there are no possible red flags regarding the ownership and lineage of the IP block before presenting them to clients.
Confirm the IPv4 block is owned outright free and clear of liens
Ensure the IPv4 block is clean and not added to any global blacklists
Remove the IPv4 block from all global routing tables and DNS entries
Provide a legal and safe purchasing process which protects our clients

7. Detailed Blacklist Reporting
Brander Group builds a strong relationship with both our buyers and sellers by providing full transparency, unique tools and
access to important information about the IPv4 Block. We use a proprietary blacklist software that provides access to
information that would otherwise only be found through a long and tedious process.
While most companies are forced to manually check each IP address one-by-one against a few popular blacklists, Brander
Group uses a powerful software that runs each IP address against over 100 global blacklists in less than 1 day. We then
provide a detailed report which outlines each blacklisted IP address, the blacklists they are on, and more importantly helpful
links to help remove the affected IPs from the blacklists.

8. Secure Payment Options
Brander Group offers secure payment options including www.escrow.com and bank wire transfers to meet the needs of our
diverse global client base. To protect the interest of our clients, we only release funds to the seller upon confirmation in the
respective internet registries public Whois that the IPv4 block has been transferred into the client’s organization ID.
Clients who want to avoid setting up an escrow account and save on fees pay via wire
transfer. Money is held in a designated ”clients funds” account until transfer is verified
in Whois, at which point we wire fund to the seller
Escrow.com is a trusted online global escrow platform which offers clients additional
peace of mind. We use a specific release condition that is verified by an Escrow.com
team member to release funds.
