How to Create a Reseller WHM

Just as Reseller packages can create cPanel accounts for customers, Dedicated and VPS packages can create Reseller accounts. The following instructions will demonstrate how to create a Reseller account for a new user.

You must have a VPS or Dedicated hosting package with root WHM (rWHM) to do this.

To create a Reseller account in WHM:

  1. Log in to WHM.
  2. Look for the Create a New Account section. The quickest way is by typing a keyword on the Search box either on the left-side panel or at the top of the page.

  3. Click on Create a New Account under the Account Functions section.

  4. Provide the necessary new account information.

  5. Navigate to the  Reseller Settings section and put a checkmark on the Make the account a reseller option.

    (Optional) You can put a checkmark on Make the account own itself so the owner can modify the account.
  6. Click Create.

Your reseller customer will now be able to access resellercustomerdomain.com/whm and log in with the cPanel username and password you just created.
