# Set up a custom domain

> Open your team’s digital business cards from a branded web address.

A custom domain lets your workspace use an address such as `card.example.com` for its digital business cards.

## Before you start

You need access to the DNS settings for your company’s domain. If another person manages the domain, send them the DNS records shown by Tapify.

Use a subdomain such as:

* `card.example.com`
* `connect.example.com`
* `people.example.com`

## Add the domain

1. Open **Settings → Domain**.
2. Enter the full subdomain without `https://` or a page path.
3. Select **Add**.

If the domain needs DNS changes, Tapify shows the required **Type**, **Name**, and **Value** records.

## Add the DNS records

1. Sign in to your DNS provider.
2. Open the DNS settings for the main domain.
3. Add each record exactly as Tapify shows it.
4. Save the DNS changes.
5. Return to Tapify and leave the page open while the status is checked.

DNS changes can take time to appear. Do not add extra characters or include the full domain in the **Name** field if your provider adds it automatically.

## Understand the status

| Status                  | Meaning                                         |
| ----------------------- | ----------------------------------------------- |
| **Active**              | The domain is connected and ready to use.       |
| **Needs configuration** | Add or correct the DNS records shown by Tapify. |
| **Not configured**      | No working domain configuration was found.      |

<Tip>
  DNS providers use different names for the same fields. **Host** can mean **Name**, and **Target** can mean **Value**.
</Tip>

## Remove the domain

1. Open **Settings → Domain**.
2. Select **Delete**.
3. Remove the old Tapify DNS records from your DNS provider when they are no longer needed.

The workspace returns to its standard Tapify address. Existing links using the removed custom domain will stop working, so update any places where you published that address.

If the status does not become active, see [Teams troubleshooting](/teams/help/troubleshooting).
