How to add a custom domain

Your FreshStore account includes free-to-use Vanity Domains, but you can also add your own Custom Domains.

Adding a Custom Domain

Log in to your FreshStore account and go to  "Domains -> Add Domain", or go to this link:

https://my.freshstore.app/domain/create

Choose the Full Domain option, and enter your domain only (e.g. mydomain.com). Click the button to confirm.

Changing Your Name Servers

Once you have added your custom domain,  you can then change your domain name servers to the ones below:

Once you have changed the nameservers, you can check when it has been updated by going to your domain list and clicking "Options" for that domain. It usually takes less than 30 minutes to update but can sometimes take up to 24 hours. 

Alternative Options

You will change your domain's nameservers when you add it to FreshStore. This might impact other services you have on the domain name, like emails or other websites.

Please also see our guide for Adding Custom Subdomains to Your Account if you do not want to change your nameservers.

Frequently Asked Questions


How long does it take to change the nameservers?

It should take less than 30 minutes but could take up to 24 hours. They might update faster for different parts of the world.

How can I make the nameservers propagate faster?

You can try clearing the DNS cache in these places, which may help in decreasing the time it takes for the nameservers to change:
