storekit+ required - Custom domains are available on storekit+ and higher subscription plans. This feature is currently in early access.
Connect your own domain to your storekit ordering page for a seamless branded experience. Instead of order.storekit.com/your-store, customers visit a domain you own.

​
Why Use a Custom Domain?

​
Stronger Brand Identity

A custom domain reinforces your brand at every touchpoint. Customers see your domain in:
  • The browser address bar
  • Receipts and confirmation emails
  • Social media links
  • Marketing materials

​
Better Analytics & Tracking

With a custom domain, your ordering page analytics are kept separate from storekit’s domain. This means:
  • Cleaner data in Google Analytics and other tools
  • Easier attribution for marketing campaigns
  • More accurate conversion tracking
  • First-party cookies for reliable visitor identification

​
Improved SEO

Search engines treat your ordering page as part of your main website when using a subdomain. Benefits include:
  • Domain authority flows to your ordering pages
  • Unified search presence for your brand
  • Better local SEO signals
We recommend using a subdomain rather than your top-level domain:

Why a subdomain?
  • Your main website remains unaffected
  • Easier to set up and maintain
  • No risk of breaking existing website functionality
  • Can run alongside your existing website
  • Simpler SSL certificate management
Popular subdomain choices:
  • order.yourbrand.com
  • orders.yourbrand.com
  • menu.yourbrand.com
  • shop.yourbrand.com

​
How to Connect Your Domain

1

Access domain settings

Navigate to Settings > Custom Domain in your storekit dashboard.
2

Enter your domain

Enter the subdomain you want to use (e.g., order.yourbrand.com).
3

Update your DNS

If we support your domain registrar, you’ll be guided to automatically add the required DNS records. Otherwise, click Manual install to view the records you need to add — you can forward these to your IT team or domain administrator if needed.
4

Verify and activate

Once DNS changes propagate (usually within a few minutes to 24 hours), storekit will automatically verify and activate your custom domain with a free SSL certificate.

​
Using Cloudflare for DNS?

If your domain’s DNS is managed through Cloudflare, ensure the following settings for your ordering subdomain:
  • Set the CNAME record to DNS only mode (grey cloud icon) — do not enable proxying (orange cloud)
  • Do not configure any SSL/TLS or certificate settings for this subdomain
  • Exclude this subdomain from any redirect rules, transform rules, WAF rules, or bot protection
Enabling Cloudflare’s proxy (orange cloud) on your ordering subdomain will cause connection issues. storekit handles SSL and security for your custom domain automatically.

​
Frequently Asked Questions

Once you’ve added the DNS record, verification typically completes within minutes. In some cases, DNS propagation can take up to 24 hours.
Yes, your original order.storekit.com/your-store URL will automatically redirect to your custom domain.
Yes, storekit automatically provisions and renews SSL certificates for your custom domain at no extra cost.
While technically possible, we strongly recommend using a subdomain. Using your root domain requires additional configuration and may conflict with your existing website.
