This feature is available for Tella Premium users only.
You can connect a custom domain to your Tella workspace so your shared videos appear on your own branded URL — like videos.yourdomain.com.

​
1. Open domain settings

  1. Log into your Tella account.
  2. Click your workspace name in the top-left corner.
  3. Go to Settings → Domain.

​
2. Choose your domain type

You’ll be asked to choose between two options:
  • Subdomain (Recommended)
    Use this if you already have a website. Example: videos.yourdomain.com
  • Root domain
    Use if you want a completely separate domain like yourcustomdomain.com.
Most users choose a subdomain because it’s easier to set up alongside your main site.

​
3. Enter your domain

Type in the subdomain or domain you’d like to use, such as videos.yourdomain.com. Then click Submit.

​
4. Set up DNS

To connect your domain, you’ll need to add a CNAME record with your domain provider (e.g. GoDaddy, Cloudflare, Squarespace, etc). DNS Configuration:
FieldValue
TypeCNAME
Nametv (or your chosen subdomain)
Targetcname.tella.tv
ProxyDisabled (Cloudflare users only)
Common registrar DNS setup guides:
  • Cloudflare
  • Squarespace
  • GoDaddy
  • Namecheap

​
5. Verify your domain

Once you’ve added the DNS record:
  1. Go back to Tella.
  2. Click Refresh.
  3. You should see a “Verified” message once the DNS is active.

​
6. Share videos from your domain

Now when you share a video from your Tella workspace, it will be hosted on your custom domain: This keeps your links branded and consistent with your website or company identity.
