Deliver a Seamlessly Branded Flowcode Experience With A Custom Domain

Updated over a week ago

What is a Custom Domain?

Think of a custom domain as your brand's own personalized digital doorway. When you create a Flowcode or a Short URL, the standard link often includes Flowcode's own branding (flowsto.go.com). A custom domain simply replaces that Flowcode-branded link with your brand's own unique website address (like qr.brand.com).

In short, it means you get to use your brand's name for your brand's links.

Where Will My Custom Domain Appear?

This is where the power of custom domains truly comes alive. Your custom domain creates a seamless, branded experience in two critical places:

1. When Scanning a Flowcode: When a user scans your Flowcode, the brief loading screen or the resulting URL in their browser will clearly display your custom domain.

2. When Clicking a Short URL: If you share your Flowcode's short link digitally (in an email or social post), the URL they click on will be your branded link.

The result: Instead of seeing a generic, unfamiliar address, your consumers see your trusted brand name.

The Value: Consistency, Trust, and Control

Why is seeing your own domain so important? It boils down to three key business benefits:

1. Build Instant Trust

When a user scans a code or clicks a link, seeing your brand name immediately offers a feeling of safety and confidence. They know they are heading to a destination you own and control—they know they are in the right place. This instantly elevates your brand from being just another link to a trusted source.

2. Ensure Total Consistency

A custom domain creates a powerful, unified look across all your marketing channels. Every Flowcode you print, every short URL you share, and every digital interaction becomes a consistent touchpoint with your brand. This reinforces your identity and makes your assets instantly recognizable, no matter where they appear.

3. Own Your Digital Footprint

Using a custom domain ensures that your brand owns the experience from the very first click or scan. It transforms a simple redirect into a valuable, branded opportunity, giving you full control over your digital footprint and user experience.
