Before you begin

Custom domains require Pro. You need a domain you own and access to its DNS settings. Yoyo connects the domain; it does not register one for you. Select the page you want the domain to open.

Follow the records shown in Yoyo

  1. In Page Settings, find Custom domain and enter the domain you want to connect.
  2. Add the ownership TXT record shown by Yoyo in your domain provider’s DNS settings.
  3. Check the connection. Once ownership is verified, add the routing records that Yoyo displays.
  4. Check again while DNS updates. Yoyo prepares HTTPS automatically after the routing is ready.
  5. Wait for Connected, then visit the domain and test the public page and short links.

If setup is still waiting

Confirm the record type, name, and value match Yoyo, and check that you edited the domain’s active DNS provider. DNS changes and HTTPS setup can take time. If the status shows Needs attention or setup is unavailable, contact support with the hostname and the status you see.
