Custom domains
Print your own domain on your codes, like go.yourbrand.com/AbC1234, instead of qrvow.com. Scans still get safety checks, smart rules, pages and stats. Your qrvow.com links keep working at the same time.
Before you start
- Use a subdomain you own, such as
go.,qr.orscan.. Bare domains (yourbrand.com) can't be used, because they can't point elsewhere with a CNAME. - You'll need access to where your domain's DNS is managed (GoDaddy, Cloudflare, Route 53, Namecheap, Hostinger…).
Steps
- On My codes → Custom domains, type your subdomain and choose Connect domain.
- Record 1 (proves it's yours): add the CNAME record shown, exactly as shown. Keep it forever; it renews the free security certificate every year.
- Wait for our email (usually 5–30 minutes after you add it). The dashboard then shows a second record.
- Record 2 (sends scans to QRVow): add a CNAME for your subdomain pointing at the value shown (it ends in
cloudfront.net). - Within about 15 minutes the status turns Live and we email you. On any code, pick your domain under Printed link and download the QR.
Provider tips
- GoDaddy, Namecheap, Hostinger: in the Name/Host box, enter only the part before your domain (for record 2 that's just
go; for record 1, everything before.yourbrand.com). - Cloudflare: set Proxy status to DNS only (grey cloud) for both records. The orange cloud stops the certificate from being issued.
- Route 53: paste the full names as shown; choose record type CNAME; TTL 300 is fine.
- DNS changes can take up to an hour to spread. We keep checking every 10 minutes.
Good to know
- Only your codes work on your domain. Anyone else's code ID shows "this code doesn't exist" there.
- Up to 5 domains per account. Removing one stops scans on it right away (codes printed with that domain stop working), so we ask you to confirm; your qrvow.com links are unaffected.
- Like your codes, a live domain keeps working if you later change plan.
