Overview

Note: Custom Domains require Premium Preference Centers.

To create a custom domain on Zaius you need:

1. The ability to update DNS records for your domain (or a technical team that can perform the update on your behalf)

2. Access to one of the following emails (to enable secure links [SSL]):

• administrator@yoursite.com
• hostmaster@yoursite.com
• postmaster@yoursite.com
• webmaster@yoursite.com
• admin@yoursite.com

Setup

1. Add Domain

Open the domain card and select "Create Custom Domain" and enter the domain name that you own where customers should update their preferences. For example: preferences.acme.com

Note: Steps 2 & 3 can be completed in any order

2. Update CNAME Records

To redirect all traffic to the correct URL, Zaius needs your team to update DNS records. Provide the information provided to your technical team.

3. Send Domain Verification Email

To ensure you actually own the domains in question, Zaius needs to send an email to your technical team to generate a secure link. Zaius will send emails to all the addresses listed and your team must click one (1) of the links and confirm ownership before publishing the Preference Center.

4. Validate & Verify

Once you've updated DNS records and/or clicked the domain verification email, you can "Verify Custom Domain" to check that you've completed the steps properly. Please note that some DNS/SSL changes can take up to 24 hours to propagate (but it typically takes less than an hour).
