Leasing IPs
How do I lease IPv4?
Browse the marketplace, select a subnet, checkout, then enter your ASN. Provisioning is automated: LOA, ROA, and RPKI are generated automatically and routing typically starts within minutes.
How many IPv4 can I lease?

How much does it cost?
/24 (256 IPs) from EUR 95/month. Lessees pay no platform fee. Prices vary by region and availability.
Is there a minimum contract?
Month-to-month. Cancel anytime with 30 days notice. No long-term lock-in. No cancellation fees.
Are the IPs clean (not blacklisted)?
Every subnet is checked against major blocklists before listing and re-checked continuously during the lease. If a subnet is flagged during your lease, it is replaced at no extra cost.
How fast can I start using leased IPs?
Typically within minutes. Checkout, LOA generation, ROA configuration, then routing. The provisioning pipeline is fully automated.
Earning From Your IPs
How do I earn from my unused IPs?
Sign up, verify ownership via your RIR, list your IPv4, and set the price. The holder keeps 90% of lease revenue. The platform handles billing, compliance, and abuse.
What is the platform fee?
10% of lease revenue, paid by the holder. Example: a /24 listed at EUR 100/month pays the holder EUR 90/month. No listing or setup fees.
How much can I earn?
/24 (256 IPs): EUR 85-180/month. /22 (1,024 IPs): EUR 350-700/month. /20 (4,096 IPs): EUR 1,400-2,800/month. The holder keeps 90% and sets the price.
When do I get paid?
Automatic monthly payouts via Stripe. Funds clear in two weeks, then paid on the 1st. Bank transfer or SEPA. Full transaction history is available.
Can I withdraw my IPs later?
Unlisted IPv4 can be removed at any time. Active leases require 90 days notice to protect lessees who are routing your prefixes.
Technical and Compliance
The Clean IP Standard
Every prefix on IP Market meets the same mandatory requirements. Ownership is verified via RIR contact. ROA is configured. IRR is registered. BGP is verified. Reputation is monitored. There are no tiers.
Is this compliant with RIPE, ARIN, and the other RIRs?
All five RIRs are supported (RIPE NCC, ARIN, APNIC, AFRINIC, LACNIC). Database records, LOAs, and ROA/RPKI are handled to RIR standards.
What verification do you require?
Lessees: basic account verification. IP holders: company documents and ID above earnings thresholds. Standard AML requirements apply.
What can I use leased IPs for?
Allowed: hosting, VPN, gaming, enterprise, IoT. Prohibited: spam, malware, hacking, illegal content. Abuse leads to termination.
What if leased IPs get blacklisted?
Issues caused during your lease: you resolve them; monitoring assistance is provided. Pre-existing issues: the prefix is replaced. Repeated abuse leads to termination.
What happens if I violate routing policy?
Routing violations are detected through hourly monitoring. When detected, income is frozen and the holder is notified. Resolution requires correcting the routing issue. Repeated violations result in lease suspension or delisting. Every action is logged.
Is IP Market a broker?
No. IP Market is an IP operations platform. Every prefix is verified, monitored, and compliant. Listing requirements are mandatory and enforced automatically.
Pricing and Payments
Are there any hidden fees?
No. Lessees pay the listed price. IP holders pay 10% of revenue. Banks may charge for international transfers.
How can I pay?
Major credit cards are accepted. Payouts to IP holders are sent by bank transfer through Stripe.
What is your refund policy?
Active leases are non-refundable. Cancel with 30 days notice. Errors caused by the platform are corrected.
