Custom Domain Setup for Your Tracking Platform
To use your own custom domain with our tracking platform, follow the steps below. Once your domain is set up,
contact us to issue your HTTPS certificate — we’ll take care of the switch and notify you when it’s live.
Step 1. Create your domain name
Most users prefer using a subdomain of their existing website domain.
Example:
If your company domain is mydomain.com
, then typical subdomains for the tracking platform could be:
app.mydomain.com
tracking.mydomain.com
Other Popular Options:
Here are some subdomain ideas commonly used for the tracking portal:
- platform.mydomain.com
- portal.mydomain.com
- dashboard.mydomain.com
- track.mydomain.com
- tracker.mydomain.com
- login.mydomain.com
- fleet.mydomain.com
- iot.mydomain.com
- assets.mydomain.com
- devices.mydomain.com
- vehicles.mydomain.com
- gps.mydomain.com
- mytracker.mydomain.com
- go.mydomain.com
- locate.mydomain.com
Choose a name that fits your brand and purpose.
Step 2: Create a CNAME Record
You now need to point your chosen subdomain to our platform.
Instructions:
Log in to your domain registrar (e.g. GoDaddy, 123-reg, Namecheap).
Navigate to the DNS Settings (sometimes called Advanced DNS, Manage DNS, Records, etc).
Add a CNAME Record with the following details:
Field | Value
|
Name / Host | login (or your chosen subdomain)
|
Type | CNAME |
Value / Points to | |
Example:
If your chosen subdomain is login.mydomain.com
, the CNAME record should look like:
Host: login
Type: CNAME
Value: web.gpsiot.net
Here is an example using GO DADDY website:
Here is an example using 123-REG control panel:

It may take a few minutes to a few hours for your domain changes to propagate (in rare cases, up to 24 hours).
Step 3. Tell us your domain name so we can create your HTTPS SSL certificate
Once your domain is correctly pointing to web.gpsiot.net
, fill in the form below so we can create your secure HTTPS certificate.
If this is your first custom domain, we will configure it for you and let you know when it's live.
If you're setting up an additional domain for a Sub-Reseller, follow these steps:
-
Log in using your original platform URL.
-
Go to:
Admin > Sub Reseller > Reseller Settings
> Branding
-
Click the Edit icon (top-right).
-
In the Custom URL field, enter your new domain (e.g. login.mydomain.com
).
-
Click Update to save.


You’re Done!
