How to set up domain white labeling?
White Labeling allows you to replace the default QR code URL with a custom URL. You can remove the vendor's name and URL from your QR code and landing page and replace it with your branded URL.
Follow the steps below to activate the White Labeling for your account:
Step 1: If you haven’t upgraded yet, please upgrade your plan to ULTIMA or a higher plan. You can view our pricing details here: https://www.qrcodechimp.com/pricing.
Step 2: Go to your Dashboard.
Step 3: Navigate to ‘White Label Settings’ under ‘Account Settings’ in the sidebar menu.
Step 4: Activate white label settings by clicking on the 'White Label Settings' radio button.
Step 5: Under the Add the White Label Details section, enter your domain or subdomain in the Your Domain/Subdomain field.
Example: If your domain is www.yourcompany.com
, enter it as qr.yourcompany.com
.
Step 6: Enter your Default Root Domain Redirect URL.
Users visiting your root subdomain (e.g., qr.yourcompany.com
) will be redirected to this page.
Step 7: Enter your Default Code Not Found/Not Active URL.
Users scanning a deleted or paused QR code will be redirected to this page.
Step 8: Upload a favicon for your brand.
Now that you have saved your white-label details, it's time to add the CNAME record in your DNS settings.
Step 9: Click Save to proceed to the Create a CNAME Record section.
Step 10: Open a new window and sign in to your domain host account (e.g., www.godaddy.com).
Step 11: Select your domain name and click Manage DNS.
Step 12: Add or edit the CNAME record as shown below.

Step 14: Click the Verify button in the Verify CNAME Record section.
Note: If verification fails, it may be due to an incorrect CNAME setup, DNS propagation delays, or other factors. Please refer to the FAQ for troubleshooting assistance.
Step 15: Upon successful verification, an automatic email notification will be sent to the QRCodeChimp support team.
Activation of your white label setup may take up to two business days.
