You can now buy a domain name right from your YouCan dashboard, so you don't have to go searching through different external providers. This new feature makes the whole process of reserving and connecting a custom domain to your store incredibly simple and fast.
Let's walk through these steps together.
Steps to buy a domain name from your dashboard
1. Go to your store's settings
From your dashboard, head to the Store section and then click on Domains.
2. Search for a domain name
Enter the name you want to reserve into the search bar.
- Choose the extension that works for you (for example: .com, .net, .ma, etc.).
- Then click on the search button.
3. Check availability
The search results will show up on the screen:
- If the domain name is already taken, you'll need to choose a different one.
- If it’s available, the price will appear on the same page.
4. Finalize the purchase
- Click on the Buy domain button.
- You'll be redirected to a contact information page where you can:
- Check the accuracy of your details.
- Fill in any missing information.
5. Complete the Payment and Activation
- If your account has enough credit to cover the cost, the purchase will go through successfully.
- You'll receive a separate email to validate your email address.
⚠️ Important :
- Email verification is essential to activate your domain name.
- If you don't verify it within 15 days, your domain name will be suspended.
With these few steps, you can reserve your own domain name and connect it directly to your store on YouCan, without any complications.
