You don't really have a lot of options hear in Au anymore for reselling 
domain names.

The two main players are MelbourneIT through their wholesale brand TPP 
Wholesale and Synergy Wholesale, owned by the owners of VentraIP.

I was using the old AussieHQ domain management system but Uber Global 
are now owned by Melbourne IT as well and they are closing the Uber 
Global brand eventually.

A third option you have is OpenSRS who a few Au providers are using.

If you have a decent volume of domains you can get discounted 
registrations and renewal pricing off those guys.

But they are an overseas provider so that might be a consideration.

Micron21 also have a wholesale account option for domain names, but this 
is only a new service the guys are offering and so I am not sure how far 
down the line they are with this.

This should give you a few options anyway.
