How do I put my funnel live on my own domain?
Going live has two halves that people routinely confuse: publishing the funnel (the content is ready) and connecting the domain (there is an address to reach it at). Both have to happen.
Before you start
- Role: Owner or Admin to touch domains; an Editor can already publish funnels.
- A custom domain requires a paid plan.
- If the domain is new, start early: DNS propagation can take up to 48 hours.
1. Get a domain
Two options:
- I already have a domain → connect a domain you already own.
- I don't have one yet → buy a domain through Clickmax, via the partner platform.
2. Point the DNS and wait
A domain bought through Clickmax arrives already pointed. An external domain needs a CNAME record at your provider, pointing at the address shown on the connection screen.
While the DNS is not answering, the domain sits at Connecting. That is normal — do not redo the configuration every ten minutes, because each change restarts propagation.
3. Link the domain to the funnel
Once the domain is Connected, choose it on the funnel under Funnel Settings → Basic → Domain. Every page in the funnel then uses that address.
An individual page can use a different domain, set under Page Settings.
4. Publish
Publish the funnel. Content that is saved but not published never reaches the visitor — it is the single most common cause of "my domain is connected but the page doesn't show".
5. Test it as a visitor
Open the final address in a private window, on mobile and on desktop. Confirm it loads, that the checkout opens and that tracking fires.

If it didn't work
- The domain never leaves Connecting: see my domain does not open.
- Connected, but the page does not show: confirm the funnel was published and that the domain is linked to it.
- The option to add a domain is blocked: the free plan does not allow a custom domain.
