Own domain for self-service and order forms

It is possible to use your own domain for self-service, order forms and Iteras’ Javascript API. This means that your subscribers will encounter your own domain instead of app.iteras.dk, which seems more credible to customers and provides a more coherent and professional user experience.

For example, instead of:

customers can access self-service via:

The same applies both to order forms and self-service.

Advantages of using your own domain:

  • More professional and coherent expression

  • Login information is stored under your own domain

  • Fewer problems with browser password management

  • Less confusion for subscribers who otherwise encounter “app.iteras.dk”

  • Better integration between your website and Iteras

Read further about how to set up your own domain for self-service and order forms.

1. Create a CNAME in DNS

First, a CNAME record must be created with your domain provider or hosting provider.

  1. Log in to where your domain is managed (e.g. your hosting or domain provider)

  2. Find the section called "DNS settings", "DNS zone" or similar

  3. Create a new record with the following information:

    Type: CNAME

    Name / Host: e.g. portal, myaccount or self-service

    Value / Target: cname.iteras.com

The setup can be illustrated as follows:

portal.[yourdomain.com] → cname.iteras.com

or:

myaccount.[yourdomain.com] → cname.iteras.com

If a record already exists on the selected subdomain (especially an A record), it must be deleted first. Please contact your hosting provider before making the change so that you can confirm that it is safe to do so.

DNS changes typically take effect within 10–30 minutes, but in some cases it can take a few hours.

2. Register the domain in Iteras

Once the DNS is set up correctly, the domain must be registered in Iteras.

Go to Account menu → Basic settings → Business policy → Self-service

Here you will find the setting for your own domain.

Then enter your new domain, e.g.

myaccount.sportsman.com

Iteras will then automatically:

  • order SSL certificate

  • configure web server

  • activate self-service and order forms on the domain

The setup usually only takes a few seconds.

3. Temporary test setup

If you would like to test the setup before putting the domain into full use, you can temporarily insert an empty line above the domain in the setting.

When the domain is working correctly, the empty line can be removed again.

4. Updating Javascript API URL

⚠️ IMPORTANT! ⚠️

If you use embedded order forms or self-service via Iteras Javascript API, the script URL must be updated.

Replace "app.iteras.dk":

<script src="https://app.iteras.dk/static/api/iteras.js"></script>

with your own domain, like this:

<script src="https://myaccount.sportsman.com/static/api/iteras.js"></script>

5. URLs with your own domain

Even with your own domain, the URL-ID must still be added to the URL.

For example, to access self-service, you must use the URL:

Or if you need to access a standalone order form, you must go to:

Here, the "sportsmanden" that comes after own domain is a URL-ID, which can be found under Customer Service in Iteras.

Limitations

The feature only works on the live environment and not on app-test.iteras.dk.
