Custom domains

Paid plans connect their own domains to an app; HTTPS certificates are issued automatically. Free apps use a forge64.app address. Status: rolling out.

Add a domain

1. Open Settings → Domains, pick the app and enter the hostname (for example app.example.com). You can include the www variant.
2. Add the DNS records Forge64 shows you at your DNS provider:
   • a TXT record _forge-verify.<your host> with the token shown (proves you own the domain; the token is shown once),
   • a CNAME from your host to the app's address for a subdomain, or A records to the listed addresses for an apex domain such as example.com (a CNAME is not allowed at an apex; ALIAS or flattened CNAME also works).
3. Forge64 checks the records in the background and when you press Check now. When both pass, the certificate is issued on the first visit.

After it is live

• Every domain is re-verified every 24 hours. If the records disappear, the domain is suspended and later released, so nobody else can claim a domain you still control while it is yours.
• You can set one domain as primary; the others redirect to it.
• The number of domains included depends on your plan; see the pricing page.

Why certificates are limited

Certificate authorities limit new certificates per registered domain, so Forge64 caps how often new certificates are requested for one domain. Certificates are only ever issued for hostnames Forge64 has approved.
