How do I set up a custom domain?

Using the Custom Domain feature is simple.


  • Sign up for a free account or log in to your existing WhyDonate account.
  • Start a new fundraiser by providing the details of your cause.
  • Go to the WhyDonate dashboard and select Custom Domain from the left menu.
  • Add your pre-purchased domain name.
  • Copy the DNS records generated by WhyDonate.
  • Add these DNS records to your domain provider’s website.
  • Wait for data verification.
  • Make your website live. What is this?
  • Your website is ready - add custom branding and personalize as needed.
  • Showcase fundraisers, connected fundraisers, and donations (optional) on your website. ** **


Your domain provider should support domain flattening, or you can use a subdomain for your campaign. (For example - Primary domain www.xyz.com & Sub-domain www.donate.xyz.com)


You can create custom landing pages or use existing campaign pages.
