Verifying a domain with a DNS record

A DNS TXT record proves that you control the domain’s settings. Only the owner (or someone they gave access) can add one.

Step by step

1. In the sell form, choose DNS TXT record and click Get my code.
2. Log in where your domain’s DNS is managed. This is usually your registrar (for example GoDaddy, Namecheap, Porkbun) or a DNS service such as Cloudflare.
3. Open the DNS settings (sometimes called DNS records, Zone editor or Advanced DNS) for the domain.
4. Add a new record with the values below and save it.
5. Back on digiflippers.com, click Check now.

The record to add

• Type: TXT
• Name / Host: the value shown in the form — usually @ or left empty for the domain itself
• Value / Content: the code exactly as shown, copied with the Copy button
• TTL: automatic or the lowest option

How long does it take?

Many DNS hosts publish changes within minutes; some take a few hours. If the first check fails, wait a little and check again. There is a short pause between two checks.

Common mistakes

• Adding the record to the wrong domain, or to a subdomain such as www.
• Extra spaces or quotes around the code.
• Editing DNS at the registrar while the domain actually uses other nameservers (for example Cloudflare). Add the record where the nameservers point.

After verification

You can delete the TXT record once the listing shows Verified owner. It does no harm if you leave it.
