What is Domain Masking? How Does Domain Masking Differ From Custom Subdomains?

Domain masking allows organizations to completely replace the GivePulse URL with the URL of the agency's choosing. This feature is different from custom subdomains, which allow organizations to insert a custom text in front of the GivePulse URL (i.e. xxx.givepulse.com). 

Below is an example of an organization, Volunteer Odyssey, utilizing the domain masking feature where users can navigate their GivePulse instance using serve.volunteerodyssey.com.

Subscription Note: Domain masking is a subscription add-on feature. To learn more, please visit the GivePulse Pricing Page. 

If you're interested in Domain Masking, reach out to your Success Manager or GivePulse Support (support@givepulse.com) for pricing.

Things to consider with Domain Masking

• Setup your subdomain CNAME to point to the URL we give you, e.g., subdomain.givepulse.com in your DNS Settings.
• Purchase an SSL Wildcard for your subdomain (specifically for https://volunteer.yourdomain.org).
