Custom domain

Move your store from the Cartisto subdomain to your own domain, with automatic HTTPS.

Every store starts on a free Cartisto subdomain (e.g. your-store.cartisto.app). When you’re ready, connect your own domain under Settings → Domain. Cartisto provisions HTTPS for it automatically — there’s no certificate to buy or renew.

How it works

Connecting a domain is two DNS changes on your side:

  1. Route traffic — add the CNAME record(s) Cartisto shows you, pointing your domain at the platform.
  2. Prove ownership — add the TXT record Cartisto gives you (under a _storeverify sub-label). This stops anyone else from claiming a domain that’s yours.

Add both at your DNS provider, then click Verify. Once the TXT record is found, the domain activates and a certificate is issued on first request.

Steps

  1. Go to Settings → Domain and enter your domain.
  2. Copy the CNAME and TXT records shown.
  3. Add them at your DNS host (Cloudflare, Namecheap, GoDaddy, …).
  4. Return to Cartisto and click Verify. DNS can take a few minutes to propagate — if it isn’t found immediately, wait and retry.
  5. When it shows verified, your store is live on the domain over HTTPS.
Note

HTTPS is automatic and ongoing Certificates are issued and renewed for you. You never handle TLS — keep the DNS records in place and it stays valid.

Tip

Keep the subdomain too Your *.cartisto.app address keeps working alongside your custom domain, which is handy as a fallback and for quick previews.
