Use a Custom Domain on VLVTN

Updated 2026-06-14
The short answer
A custom domain serves your VLVTN smart links on your own web address. You add the domain under Dashboard, Settings, create the two DNS records it shows you, then run Verify. Once verified, your VLVTN links are reachable on your domain. Custom domains require a Pro plan.

Note
Custom domains require a Pro plan. On a non-Pro plan you see a Pro badge and a gated message instead of the Custom Domains controls.
  1. Add your domain
    Go to Dashboard, Settings. In the Custom Domains section, type your domain in the field, placeholder yourdomain.com, and select Add.
  2. Create the DNS records
    VLVTN shows you a CNAME record and a TXT verification record. Create both at your DNS provider.
  3. Verify
    Select Verify. The status shows Pending verification until the TXT record is found, then Verified.
  4. Your links go live on the domain
    Once verified, your VLVTN links are reachable on your domain. This is wired up automatically.

One domain for the account

A custom domain is an account-level setting. There is no per-link domain picker in the editor. After you verify the domain, it serves your VLVTN links automatically.
