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.
