How to connect your own domain to your store

Short answer

To connect your own domain, add the domain to your store in the Vitrula dashboard, create the DNS record that the domain wizard shows at your registrar, wait for verification and let the SSL certificate issue automatically. Propagation usually takes minutes to a few hours; the wizard shows live status.

    Buy or choose a domain

    Use a domain you own or buy one from a registrar of your choice.

Frequently asked questions

Why is my domain not verifying?

Usually the DNS record is missing, has a typo or has not propagated yet. Compare it with the wizard's value and wait; the wizard keeps checking.

Can I keep my email on the same domain?

Yes. Email records are separate; only add the record the wizard asks for and leave your mail records unchanged.
