Custom domain setup

Last updated: April 2026

By default your storefront lives at yourstore.techfleet.dev. You can point a custom domain or subdomain at it for a branded URL.

Add a custom domain

  1. Go to Settings → Domain
  2. Enter your domain (e.g. shop.yourbrand.com)
  3. Copy the CNAME target shown
  4. At your DNS provider, create a CNAME record pointing your domain at the target
  5. Back in Techfleet, click Verify — SSL is provisioned automatically once DNS propagates

Apex vs subdomain

Subdomains (shop.yourbrand.com) are recommended — they use a clean CNAME. Apex domains (yourbrand.com) require an ALIAS or ANAME record, which not every DNS provider supports.

WARNING

DNS propagation can take up to 24 hours. Most records resolve in under 10 minutes, but if verification fails, wait before re-trying.

NOTE

Removing a custom domain reverts your storefront to the yourstore.techfleet.dev URL. Existing buyer bookmarks on the custom domain stop working immediately.
