# **Custom webhook domains**

Receive, process and forward webhooks using your own domain name.

**Don't have a domain? Check out our **[Custom Subdomains](https://webhookrelay.com/docs/webhooks/custom-domains/docs/webhooks/custom-subdomains)** guide.**

## [Setting up custom domain](#setting-up-custom-domain)

In many cases you would prefer to use your own domain when receiving the webhooks. It helps with branding and makes it easier to manage your webhooks. You can delete, transfer between buckets or update your domain at any time.

## [Step 1: Add your domain in Webhook Relay](#step-1-add-your-domain-in-webhook-relay)

First, navigate to [Webhook Relay domains page](https://my.webhookrelay.com/domains/) and click on "Reserve domain" button.

![Custom Domains](https://webhookrelay.com/docs/webhooks/custom-domains/images/features/custom-domains/cover.png)

In the form add your domain name and click on "Reserve" button.

## [Step 2: Configure your DNS](#step-2-configure-your-dns)

Once the domain is added, you should see "Pending Action" badge next to your reserved domain:

![Pending Action](https://webhookrelay.com/docs/webhooks/custom-domains/images/features/custom-domains/pending-action.png)

You will need to access your DNS provider. Then, create a CNAME record in your domain pointing at `hooks.webhookrelay.com`. Instructions on how to do this can be found in your DNS provider's documentation.

## [Step 3: Select your domain in the Webhook Relay bucket](#step-3-select-your-domain-in-the-webhook-relay-bucket)

Last step is to select your domain in the Webhook Relay bucket's input settings:

Path is optional but it allows you to reuse same domain for multiple buckets and inputs by using different paths.
