Find out how to make your Paymash Online Shop accessible via your own URL.

Attention! The change can take up to 24 hours! Your web page will not be accessible during this conversion. If you switch from an existing online shop to the Paymash online shop, choose a time when you have few visits.

You can redirect the Paymash online shop to your desired address in the following way:

1. Select URL

Choose an URL. You can either create a subdomain from your homepage (e.g. shop.mystore.com) or use your own address (e.g. mystore.com).

2. Create a CName Record

For the second step, you need to know where your domain is managed. You pay this provider a small monthly or annual amount so that the domain belongs to you. If you need help creating the CName Record, contact Support or your contact person at your domain administrator.

How do I set up the CName Record?

Log in to the admin area of your domain. Go to "Domains" and edit the DNS zone of the desired domain.

Add a new record. Choose the type "CNAME" and enter "https://app.mypaymash.com/".

In case your domain administrator takes over this task, give him the instruction to create a "CNAME record for https://app.mypaymash.com/".

Important!
Create a CNAME record for your domain always with the www. prefix and without it.

If you use a subdomain. Example: shop.mystore.com, then create a CNAME record for www.shop.mystore.com and for shop.mystore.com. This is required to create the SSL certificate.

If no CNAME record for the version without www. is possible, then create an A Record. The IP for this is: 5.9.38.221

What if I can only make an A record?

There are certain domain administrators that do not allow CName Records, but only "A Records". The difference is that with "A-Records" the IP address and not "https://app.mypaymash.com/" must be stored. This is less recommendable, because the IP address could possibly change at some point and the forwarding would then no longer work. If it can't be configured differently, you can contact us and we will give you the IP address.

Important: Just like the CNAME record, the A record must also have a version with and without www. prefix. This applies to domains with and without subdomain.

The IP of Paymash is: 5.9.38.221


3. Configure the Paymash Settings

Then enter your page on Paymash in the "Settings → Online Shop → Add domain" (e.g. mystore.com):

Use your own domain for the Paymash Online Shop - photo 01

Good to know! Enter your domain name in the Paymash Settings without "www.".
