Branded QR codes and short links on your own domain
Type a subdomain to see the two DNS records it takes. Custom domains from $5 a month.
One you don’t use for anything else, like go., qr. or link.
For example, two records at your DNS provider. Your website and email on yourbrand.com stay as they are.
1. Prove you own it
- Type
- TXT
- Name
- _qr-verify.go.yourbrand.com
- Value
- (issued when you add the domain)
A random value made for your domain when you add it.
2. Point it at us
- Type
- CNAME
- Name
- go.yourbrand.com
- Value
- cname.qrsalt.com
This one stays: remove it and the codes on this domain stop answering.
We keep checking until both records pass, so you don’t have to wait on the page.

Why your own domain
- Your brand in the address. People see go.yourbrand.com/menu, so they know who sent it and where it goes.
- The printed address is yours. It lives in your DNS, under your control.
- Nobody borrows it. Your domain answers only the codes you assign to it.
Setup in three steps
- Add the two records from the box above at your DNS provider.
- We check every 5 minutes until it passes. “Check DNS now” runs it on demand, once every 30 seconds.
- HTTPS on the first visit, renewed automatically.
Why a subdomain? A CNAME can’t share a name with other records (RFC 1034, 3.6.2), and a bare domain always has some.
Domains in the dashboard
One domain, the default for new codes
Each domain shows when it was last checked. Pick the one new codes start on.
Your domain on every row
Verified, your address appears in the list, the downloads and the QR image itself.
Move a folder at once
Select by folder, tag or filter and choose “Move to domain”, up to 500 at a time. A code keeps its ending when it’s free on the new domain.
When something goes wrong
- A record is removed. We re-check every 24 hours. Until it’s back, the dashboard and new downloads use the code’s short link on our domain.
- The domain is deleted. Only an owner or admin can, and the screen says how many codes use it first. Those codes move to our domain and keep their endings.
Domains in the API
With Starter and up, add, check and remove domains, and move codes onto one in bulk.

Is this a white label QR code?
Not completely. Your domain is on every code and short link, and website codes pass straight through. Pages we host for a code say they were shared with QRSalt, and the dashboard stays ours.
Do I need to buy a new domain?
No. You use a subdomain of one you own, like go.yourbrand.com, so there’s nothing to register.
Can I pick the ending on my own domain?
Yes, on every plan with a custom domain, like go.yourbrand.com/menu. It’s 4 to 24 characters and fixed once the code exists.
