How to claim your Flodesk handle

Edited

Overview

A Flodesk handle is your unique subdomain within Flodesk. It appears in the URLs of your published link in bio forms, full page forms, and checkout pages, helping you create a consistent and recognizable brand experience across all touchpoints.

For example: yourbrand.myflodesk.com

Your handle is applied across your account and can be customized at any time. Changing it will automatically update all associated Flodesk URLs.

What is a Flodesk handle?

Your Flodesk handle serves as the prefix in your form and checkout links. It allows your brand name or personal identity to appear clearly in your Flodesk URLs, improving recognition and trust with your audience.

Example:

If your brand is "Gina Smith Photography" and your social handles are "@ginasmith", choosing ginasmith as your Flodesk handle keeps your brand consistent: ginasmith.myflodesk.com

Note: Your handle only customizes the part of the URL before .myflodesk.com (for example, yourbrand.myflodesk.com). Since link in bio forms, full page forms, and checkout pages are hosted on Flodesk's domain, myflodesk.com will always be part of the link. There's currently no option to connect a fully custom domain to these pages.

Choosing a Flodesk Handle

When selecting your handle, consider:

  • Your personal name

  • Your business name

  • Your brand name

Handle Requirements

  • Must be between 3 and 30 characters

  • Can include only letters and numbers (no special characters or spaces)

  • Must be unique—no two Flodesk accounts can use the same handle

How to set your Flodesk handle

You can set or update your Flodesk handle through your account settings as follows:

Steps to Set Your Handle

  • Log in to your Flodesk account

  • Navigate to Account settings > Account overview

  • Locate the Flodesk handle card

  • Click the pencil icon to edit

  • Delete the auto-generated handle

  • Enter your new handle and click Save

Note: Once saved, the handle will immediately apply to all published link in bio, full page, and checkout links.

FAQ

Can I change my Flodesk handle to something else later?
Yes. You can update your handle at any time given that is still free to claim. All existing Link in bio Form, Full Page Form and Checkout page links will automatically be updated to reflect your newly selected handle.

As a best practice, always ensure your new links work before sharing them with your audience. To do this, copy and paste the link into an incognito browser.

Can I use multiple Flodesk handles?
No. Each Flodesk account supports only one handle. The handle applies at the account level, meaning it will be used across all applicable forms and checkout pages.

Can I remove myflodesk.com from my handle?
No. Your handle sets the prefix before .myflodesk.com (like yourbrand.myflodesk.com), but it doesn't remove myflodesk.com itself. Link in bio forms, full page forms, and checkout pages are all hosted on Flodesk's domain, so myflodesk.com will always show up in these links. If having your own domain in the URL matters to you, we'd love to hear that as a feature request.

Summary

  • Your Flodesk handle is a unique subdomain (e.g., yourbrand.myflodesk.com)

  • It appears in all your Flodesk-hosted form and checkout links

  • Choose a handle that reflects your brand or business name

  • You can update your handle in Account settings > Account overview

  • Only one handle is allowed per Flodesk account

Setting your Flodesk handle helps reinforce your brand and ensures a cohesive customer experience wherever your links are shared.
