With Noloco connecting a custom domain is easy. Each app can be accessed at a unique URL like but it is better if you use a custom domain for your portal for a truly white-labeled experience like
A Noloco account and a published app.
A domain name purchased from a domain registrar (e.g., GoDaddy, Namecheap, Cloudflare).
Basic familiarity with your domain registrar's dashboard.
Next you will be asked to add some records to your domain's DNS settings. To do this, you need to find the “DNS Records” section in your domain name provider's account or dashboard. This will look different for each domain provider, but here are the general steps:
Look for an area that's related to DNS, e.g. Manage DNS, Advanced DNS, etc.
Locate the area or section where you can add “records” or DNS records
If you get stuck, try contacting your domain name provider's support or exploring their help articles.
The next step will be different depending on the type of domain you have used. You could be using a subdomain, or a normal domain.
A is something like yourcompany.com or yourcompany.co.uk
A is anything like app.yourcompany.com or www.yourcompany.com
You can swap app with anything you like, such as portal or secure
app.yourcompany.com is a subdomain of yourcompany.com
It is more challenging to use a normal domain as a custom domain for your Noloco app, so we usually recommend using a subdomain instead.
If you are using a DNS provider that supports ALIAS records you can add an ALIAS record that points to 'ssl.noloco.co' - if you do not see this option, you will need to switch your nameservers to a provider that supports ALIAS records or use a subdomain as described below.
Add a CNAME record for your domain pointing to ssl.noloco.co
After adding your DNS records to your domain registrar, you can come back to Noloco and verify the setup. This will check if you have correctly setup your domain name, and it will activate your custom domain.
DNS changes can take up to 48 hours to propagate worldwide, so if this doesn't work immediately, please try again in a few minutes or a few hours.
When connecting you Cloudflare you need to turn off HTTPS as the SSL is all handled by Noloco. Do do this, in your Cloudflare account go to SSL/TLS > Edge Certificates > Always Use HTTPS > Off
For Cloudflare you should create a record that points to 'ssl.noloco.co' additionally, if you are setting up your custom domain with Cloudflare DNS then you need to disable . This is because the https/SSL certificate is handled by Noloco when you configure your domain.
