### FAQ

<details>

<summary>Can I create a payment link pointing to my custom domain?</summary>

Yes. Your custom domain can be included in the default payment\_link\_config object as part of the business profile update.

This involves adding CNAME records and TLS certificates which ends up being a slightly complex process. Please reach out to our [Support](https://join.slack.com/t/hyperswitch-io/shared_invite/zt-1k6cz4lee-SAJzhz6bjmpp4jZCDOtOIg) to test this feature out with your custom domain.
