To map your domain name, all you have to do is:
- Set up a CNAME in Domain Name Provider’s Admin Portal.
- Add a Custom Domain in Quikchex.

- Log in to your domain name registration provider’s website.
- Navigate to your settings and select DNS (Domain Name System) settings.
- Create a CNAME entry by entering the sub-domain name and the CNAME.
- Map the CNAME entry to secure.quikchex.in.
Based on your domain name registration provider,
- The sub-domain name might be called: Host/Alias.
- The CNAME might be called: Value, Points To, or Destination.
For example, if you wish to use ess.
Sub-domain Name | CNAME |
---|---|
ess | secure.quikchex.in |
Similarly, if you wish to use login.
Sub-domain Name | CNAME |
---|---|
login | secure.quikchex.in |
Once you have configured the CNAME entry, you can test it via the NSLOOKUP command in the terminal to verify it before submitting the custom domain request. The changes may take up to 48 hours to reflect based on your Time To Live (TTL) settings. The TTL setting determines how long it takes for your computer to update its DNS-related settings.
You can also contact your domain administrator or domain admin support if you face any difficulties while configuring your CNAME entry.

Installing an SSL Certificate
After submitting your custom domain request, if you encounter an SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) error, do not worry. Quikchex will install a Multi-Domain SSL Certificate in the back end to secure your domain name and prevent further errors. This process usually takes up to 3-5 business days.
You’ll be notified via email when your custom domain is active after that you will be able to access your Quikchex organization using your custom domain name.
Note: SSL certificates help you to create a secure connection between a web server and a user’s web browser. SSL certificates from third-party vendors cannot be installed in Quikchex.
