To set up the Payrexx platform solution, a domain is required. This domain will be used to access the platform's .
You have the following options when choosing a domain.
Please carefully consider which type of domain you select: since the DNS records will point to the Payrexx server, changing the chosen domain later will be impossible or require significant effort and costs.
Standalone second-level domain for the platform
Subdomain of an existing second-level domain
Existing second-level domain
Example: newdomain.com
Example: pay.mydomain.com
Example: mydomain.com
The setup process varies depending on the type of domain used:
During the Payrexx setup process, you will receive four nameservers. These must be added to your domain registrarโs settings.
For a subdomain, DNS delegation must be configured. During setup, Payrexx will provide four nameservers that need to be added as NS records in the DNS zone of the primary domain.
More information on DNS delegation:
Send Payrexx an export of your domainโs current DNS zone. Based on this data, Payrexx will create its own DNS zone within its managed environment. You will then need to update your domain registrar with the four nameservers provided by Payrexx.
A domain name is a user-friendly address that provides access to websites and other online resources. It simplifies navigation by eliminating the need to remember numerical IP addresses, which computers use to identify each other on the internet. A domain name consists of two main components: the top-level domain (TLD) and the second-level domain (SLD). For example, in "example.com," "com" is the top-level domain, while "example" is the second-level domain.
The Domain Name System (DNS) translates human-friendly domain names into IP addresses, enabling computers to identify and communicate with each other on the internet. When you enter a domain name in your web browser's address bar, your computer sends a request to a DNS server to resolve the name into its corresponding IP address. This process ensures a connection to the correct web server hosting the website you want to access.
