Connecting a Namecheap domain to Zarla takes a few minutes: Zarla gives you the records, Namecheap's Advanced DNS tab is where they go.
Step 1 — Get your records from Zarla
- In the sidebar, click Site settings → Domain → Manage domain →.
- Click Connect existing and type your domain.
- Zarla shows the three records to add. Keep this tab open.
Step 2 — Add them at Namecheap
- Log in to Namecheap and go to Domain List, then click Manage next to your domain.
- Open the Advanced DNS tab.
- Use Add New Record to add each record exactly as Zarla shows it.
- Remove any existing records of the same type that point elsewhere (Namecheap's default "parking page" records, for example).
Namecheap tip: the Advanced DNS tab only works when your domain's Nameservers setting (on the Domain tab) is "Namecheap BasicDNS". If it's set to custom nameservers, your DNS lives wherever those point — update the records there instead.
Step 3 — Verify in Zarla
Back in Zarla, click I've updated my DNS records. Most connections verify within minutes; allow up to 48 hours for changes to spread. HTTPS is set up for you automatically.
