How do I select a complimentary custom domain from Bitly?

When you first upgrade to some plans, you may be prompted to search for a complimentary custom domain. If you don't choose one at that time, you can always return to your settings and choose one later, but only if you haven't added your own.

To choose a complimentary domain: 

1. Open the profile menu.
   
2. Click Settings.
   
3. Click Custom Domains below your account name.
   
4. Click Add a domain.
   
5. Click Get a domain from Bitly.
   
6. Click Next.
7. Search for a custom domain. (See our list of top-level domains.)
   

   Pursuant to the Bitly Domain User Agreement, you are not permitted to select a domain that infringes the trademarks or other intellectual property rights of a third party.

   
   
8. Once you've found the one you'd like to choose, click Select.
9. Click Confirm.

Your custom domain may take up to 24 hours to get verified. Once verified, you're all set to start creating your custom branded links!
