PowerPanel white label and branding (CP)

As promised PowerPanel is fully white label. There are several options you can edit and manage. One of the most powerful option is the realtime PowerPanel internet address editor. You can choose your own internet address for PowerPanel. Beside this you can setup white label URL options for your customers. You can choose the URL on our free branded PowerPanel subdomain. This is https://mypanel.mypp.io. Or you can add one of your own domain names and SSL certificate and activate a URL and it will look like this: https://cp.myhostingcompany.com. Off course PowerPanel has secure connection so you need to activate a valid SSL certificate. In this article we explain how to use this.

6. Section 5: Setup your CP web-address

In the last section on this page, you can configure your own PowerPanel address. You can choose your domain and create a free URL or choose your own domain and upload your own SSL certificate to have a more white labeled PowerPanel.

Note: It is important you have create the correct DNS settings before activate the CP URL. Otherwise the system will not allow you to save the custom URL.

IMPORTANT: If you use your own URL (domain name) you need to create a CNAME record in your dns zone that points to our address: cp.powerpanel.io.

In case you need to create an A record: 52.211.19.240.

7. Section 6: White-label domain for your resellers

Now you see the section where you can configure the white label PowerPanel address for your customers. Choose the domain name you want your customers to use. Make sure you have a wildcard SSL certificate loaded because your customers can create subdomains on the domain you choose. In the example below your customers can create addresses like https://company-a.yourpowerpanel.io and https://provider.yourpowerpanel.io. If you don’t want to use this option, leave it blank.

Note: If you don't use this, your resellers can not use the free option on creating CP URL
