How do I set my own domain for use with Evalato?

Website > Branding > Domain

To use your own domain for all of your program links, go to Website > Branding > Domain and press Change, then Set up custom domain.

Next, enter the provided information as a new DNS record in your own domain. This allows the system to validate the domain. After you've added the provided CNAME records, press the Verify button to see the new URL for your program — once validated, your program’s links will start using your own custom domain, including the judging and applicant portals.

Please, keep in mind that the validation usually takes less than 20 minutes, but in some cases might take up to 48 hours.

IMPORTANT: Changing the subdomain in Evalato of a program with live registrations is not recommended, as it would invalidate the links that your customers have already received in their emails.
