Custom Domains
Serve claim pages on your own domain, such as claim.yourbrand.com.
By default your claim pages live on yourcompany.donaraz.app. With a custom domain they run on your own address, such as claim.yourbrand.com — more trustworthy for claimants and consistent with your brand. Custom domains are available on selected plans; see Plans & Subscriptions.
Add a domain
- Go to Settings → Custom Domains, press Add Custom Domain and enter your domain, for example
claim.yourbrand.com. We recommend a subdomain rather than your main website domain. - Donaraz shows the DNS records to add at your domain provider:
- a CNAME record pointing your subdomain to the target shown (usually
yourcompany.donaraz.app); - one or more TXT records for ownership and SSL certificate verification.
- a CNAME record pointing your subdomain to the target shown (usually
- Add the records at your DNS provider (Cloudflare, TransIP, GoDaddy, …).
- Back in Donaraz, press Verify Domain.
DNS changes can take up to 48 hours, but usually work within minutes. Once verified, Donaraz issues an SSL certificate automatically and your claim pages, status pages and email links use the new domain.
Main domain
The first domain you add becomes your main domain. With several domains you can pick which one is main; links in emails and the dashboard use it. Set another domain as main before deleting the current one.
Root domains
Want to use yourbrand.com itself instead of a subdomain? Root domains can’t have a normal CNAME. Many providers support a workaround (CNAME flattening, ALIAS or ANAME records — for example Cloudflare, DNSimple and DNS Made Easy). The dashboard explains the options.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | What to do |
|---|---|
| Verification fails | Check the record names and values exactly, including trailing dots your provider may add. Wait a bit and verify again. |
| SSL stuck on pending validation | Check the TXT records, then use the option to restart SSL validation. |
| “Domain not found” page | The domain points to Donaraz but isn’t (yet) verified for your company. |
| Behind a proxy (Cloudflare orange cloud) | Follow the Cloudflare-specific instructions shown in the dashboard. |
