Verification proves you control a domain — without this, Bizzy can’t let you send from addresses on it.

Prerequisites

  • Access to DNS at your domain registrar (or wherever DNS for the domain is hosted).
  • Permission in Bizzy to add domains (typically Owner or Admin).

The verification flow

  1. Go to Domains and click Verify Domain.
  2. Enter the domain name (for example example.com).
  3. Save. Bizzy generates a verification token for you.

  1. Add the record. If your DNS host can do it for you, Bizzy offers to set it up automatically — see below. Otherwise, copy the TXT record Bizzy displays. The record name is _bizzy on your domain — for example.com that’s _bizzy.example.com — and the value is bizzy-domain-verification= followed by your token.
  2. Add the TXT record at your DNS provider. Exact steps vary by host; most providers have a “TXT” record type in their dashboard. Many ask only for the part before your domain, so enter _bizzy rather than the full name.
  3. Back in Bizzy, click Check Now. The app polls DNS and updates the status once it sees the record.

Setting it up automatically

Some DNS hosts let Bizzy hand them the record so you don’t have to type it. When yours can, a Set it up automatically card appears above the record details, with a button naming your DNS host.
  1. Click the button. Your DNS host opens in a new tab and shows you the exact record Bizzy is asking it to add.
  2. Approve the change there.
  3. Return to the Bizzy tab. It checks for the record and switches the domain to verified — usually within a minute or two, since DNS changes take a short while to become visible.
The record is the same one listed below the card, so you can always add it by hand instead. If you don’t see the card, your DNS host doesn’t support this yet — follow the manual steps.

Names under a domain you already have

You can’t verify a name under a domain that’s already in your list, such as mail.example.com while you have example.com. When the name is one level under that domain, ask an agent to add it as a subdomain once that domain is verified. A subdomain shares its parent’s verification, so there’s no TXT record to add. Names deeper than one level, and names under a subdomain, can’t be added while the domain above them is in your list.

Expiry

You have 7 days to complete verification. If the TXT record isn’t found by then, the domain’s status becomes failed. The domain stays in your list — start verification again from the domain’s page to get a fresh token.
