# Connect a custom domain

Custom domains require the Launch plan or higher.

1. Open **Settings → Public Profile** and find **Custom domain**.
2. Enter the domain without a path, such as [example.com](http://example.com) or [tours.example.com](http://tours.example.com).
3. Select **Connect**.
4. At your domain registrar, create the A record shown by TripEleven. For a root domain use host @. For a subdomain use its first label, such as tours. Optionally add a www CNAME for a root domain.
5. Leave the page open or return later. Status moves from **Pending DNS** to **Issuing SSL certificate**, then **Active**.

**Note:** DNS changes can take time to propagate. Removing a custom domain disconnects it and removes its SSL certificate. The default TripEleven subdomain stays available.
