After entering your domain, the system will show you three options to link your domain. You need to select only one method.
Adding DNS Records
-
Login to your domain provider account (where you purchased your domain, for example GoDaddy, Namecheap, Hostinger).
-
Go to the DNS Settings for your domain.
-
You need to add the following records:
CNAME Record for @
- Type: CNAME
- Name/Host: @
- Target/Points to: domain.zepio.io
- TTL: Set to the lowest available.
Note: If a CNAME record for @
is already present, edit it with the above value.
A Record
- Type: A
- Name/Host: @
- Value/Points to: 139.5.191.142
- TTL: Set to the lowest available.
Note: If a A record for @ is already present, edit it with the above value.
Final Check
✔️ Make sure all these records are present in your DNS settings before proceeding.
✔️ If you are doing this configuration immediately after purchasing your domain, wait for some time (usually up to a few hours) for the DNS to propagate fully.

-
After adding all DNS records, go back to your Zepio admin panel.

Your domain will get connected immediately if all settings are correct.
Important: Do not change any IP or other DNS settings after connecting, as this may disconnect your domain from your store.
Removing or Changing Your Domain
- If you want to change your domain later:
- Go to Settings > Custom Domain.
- Click on Remove Domain to disconnect your current domain before adding a new one.
Redirecting www to non-www domain (optional)
- Login to your domain provider account (where you purchased your domain, for example GoDaddy, Namecheap, Hostinger).
- Type: CNAME
- Name/Host: www
- Target/Points to: domain.zepio.io
- TTL: Set to the lowest available (example: 600 if using Hostinger).
Note: If a CNAME record for www
is already present, edit it with the above value.
Note
Always double-check DNS records and wait for propagation time before connecting your domain to avoid errors.
