Connect a domain to your server

How to make your domain point to your server – with one click or your own DNS records.

1 min read Updated on 07.10.2026

With one click

If you registered or transferred the domain with us, open it under Domains. Under Point to a server, select your server and click Connect. We then set the required A (and AAAA) records for the domain and www.

Existing A, AAAA and CNAME records for the domain and www are replaced.

Subdomain for a game server

For an address like play.yourserver.com, add a record in the DNS records tab:

  • Name: play
  • Type: A
  • Value: your server's IPv4 address

For Minecraft on the default port 25565 that's all you need.

Domain with another provider

If the domain is registered elsewhere, add an A record with your server's IP there. Alternatively you can transfer the domain to us.

How long does it take?

New records are usually active after a few minutes, but depending on caching (TTL) it can take up to a few hours.
