Connect your own domain

Point a domain you own at your Torva storefront, and get a certificate so it loads securely.

What this does

Serves your shop at your own web address instead of a Torva one.

Before you start

  • A domain you already own.
  • Access to its DNS records.

Steps

  1. Open Domains.
  2. Enter the domain you want to use.
  3. If your DNS provider supports it, Torva offers Connect with your domain's name on it: sign in to your provider in the window that opens and approve, and the records are written for you. Your password stays with your provider.
  4. Otherwise — or if you would rather — add the DNS records Torva shows you at your registrar. Each value has a copy button; copy rather than retype.
  5. Select Check. The page keeps checking on its own until the domain is live.

Do not have a domain yet? Torva does not sell domains itself; buy one at any registrar (the Domains page links to one) and connect it the same way.

What happens next

Once DNS resolves, a certificate is issued automatically and your shop loads over https. This usually takes minutes but DNS can take longer to propagate.

Common problems

It has said pending for hours. Check the records match exactly. Some registrars add your domain to the end of a value automatically, which turns shop.example.com into shop.example.com.example.com.

The site loads but says not secure. The certificate is still being issued. Give it a few minutes after DNS resolves.

I want email on this domain too. Sending email is set up separately — see Set up sending.

Still stuck?

Ask Torva from inside your account. It knows everything in this article and can also see what your own store is currently doing, so it can answer for your situation rather than in general.
