How to set up a custom domain (URL) for your online store in Zopping?

As a Zopping customer, we offer a free Zopping subdomain (URL) and SSL certificate for your online store.

For example, if your store name is ‘XYZ Supermart‘, then we automatically create an online store with a URL of https://xyzsupertmart.zopping.com for your customers to access your catalogue and place orders.

However, you might want to change this domain (URL) with your own to brand your website. This guide will help you link your custom domain with the online store that is created using Zopping.

To successfully switch your custom domain, you will need to make changes in two places and in the order mentioned below:

1. On your Domain Registrar (website from which you bought your domain) account
2. Zopping Dashboard
