- NZD $250 minimum for any subsequent website changes β larger changes negotiated at the time
Contact us at email@puree.app to get started.
What's Included
With a custom domain, Puree hosts your entire catering website β not just the order form. The setup fee includes:
- Your domain pointed to Puree (e.g. yourcateringco.com)
- A custom homepage designed for your business
- Your online order form integrated at your domain
- SSL certificate (HTTPS) provisioned automatically
You can use either your root domain (e.g. yourcateringco.com) or a subdomain (e.g. orders.yourcateringco.com). If you already have an existing website at your root domain that you want to keep, a subdomain is the better choice.
Before You Start
You'll need access to your domain's DNS settings. This is usually managed through your domain registrar β common ones include GoDaddy, Namecheap, Cloudflare, or Google Domains. If you're unsure who manages your DNS, check with whoever set up your website or domain.
Step 1 β Get in Touch
Email us at email@puree.app with your domain name and a brief description of what you'd like on your homepage. We'll confirm the setup fee and get things underway.
Step 2 β Point Your DNS to Puree
Log in to your DNS provider and navigate to your DNS settings (sometimes called DNS Management or Zone Editor). Add an A record with the following values:
| Field | What it may be called | What to enter |
|---|---|---|
| Type | Type | A (or A/AAAA) |
| Name / Host | Name, Host, Alias | @ for root domain, or your subdomain prefix (e.g. orders) |
| IP Address | IP Address, Value, Points to | 170.64.150.105 |
| TTL | TTL | 3600 or leave as default |
Using your root domain? Enter @ in the Name/Host field β this represents the root domain itself. If your DNS provider doesn't accept @, leave the field blank or enter your domain name directly.
DNS changes can take time to propagate
Changes typically take effect within a few minutes to an hour, but can take up to 48 hours. You may see a "not secure" or "site not found" error until propagation is complete and we've finished setup on our end.
Step 3 β We Handle the Rest
Once your DNS is updated, let us know and we'll complete the setup β configuring your domain, provisioning your SSL certificate, and publishing your homepage. We'll email you once everything is live, typically within 1 business day.
Making Changes to Your Website
All website changes are handled by Puree. To request a change, email email@puree.app with a description of what you'd like updated.
| Type of change | Fee |
|---|---|
| Minor updates (text, photos, contact details) | From NZD $250 |
| Significant changes (new pages, layout redesign, new features) | Negotiated at the time |
Troubleshooting
The page isn't loading
Check that your A record is pointing to 170.64.150.105 and that you've notified us. DNS changes can take up to an hour to take effect.
I'm seeing a security / SSL warning
SSL is provisioned once setup is complete on our end. If you're still seeing the warning after we've confirmed everything is live, contact us.
