Custom Domains

What is a custom domain?

Every FloopFloop project gets a free yourname.floop.tech subdomain, but you can also point your own domain (for example myapp.com or app.mybusiness.io) to a project. Visitors will see your domain in the address bar instead of the floop.tech URL.

Custom domains require a Pro or Business subscription. See Plans & Credits for a comparison.

Adding a custom domain

1. Open your project and click the Settings tab.
2. Find the Custom Domain section.
3. Type the full domain you want to use (for example app.example.com) and click Add domain.
4. FloopFloop will display two DNS records you need to add at your domain registrar — a CNAME pointing your domain to your floop.tech subdomain, and a TXT record used to verify ownership.
5. Add both records in your registrar's DNS settings (Cloudflare, GoDaddy, Namecheap, Route 53, etc.) and wait for verification.

Verification & status

The settings page shows the current state of your domain:

• Pending— Records are being checked. DNS changes can take anywhere from a few minutes to a few hours to propagate.
• Active— Verification succeeded and your project is now reachable on the custom domain. SSL is provisioned automatically.
• Failed— Verification could not complete. Double-check that both DNS records exist and match exactly what FloopFloop displayed.

SSL certificates

FloopFloop automatically provisions and renews an SSL certificate for your custom domain once verification completes. Your visitors always get HTTPS — you do not need to upload or manage certificates.

Removing a domain

To stop using a custom domain, click Remove in the Custom Domain section of project settings. Your project remains accessible on its original floop.tech subdomain, and you can re-add the domain (or a different one) at any time.

Troubleshooting

• Verification stuck on pending— DNS propagation can take up to 24 hours. You can check propagation status with a tool like dnschecker.org before contacting support.
• CNAME conflict— The root domain (e.g. example.com with no subdomain) cannot use a CNAME record. Use a subdomain like app.example.com or www.example.com instead.
• Already in use— A custom domain can only be attached to one project at a time. Remove it from the other project first.
