# CPanel

There are 3 parts to this setup:

* **Part 1**: Get the value for CNAME record
* **Part 2**: Setup in CPanel
* **Part 3**: Setup in Shoppego

{% hint style="info" %} <mark style="color:red;">\*\*Reminder\*\*</mark> Make sure your domain \*\*has been purchased\*\* and \*\*can be used for setup\*\*. If you purchased a "\*\*.com\*\*" domain, you can \*\*continue to follow\*\* this tutorial.
{% endhint %}

If the Malaysian domain is like "**.my, .com.my, .net.my**" you need to **setup your DNS records** in your **MYNIC account** or you can **contact your domain provider** to make the changes.

**Starting February 26, 2026, every Shoppego user only need to do a CNAME record and every store/website will have the same CNAME record value/setting.**
