If you have a private domain (e.g., yourcompany.com), you can claim and verify it in Expensify to manage employee permissions and enable additional security features.

Claiming a domain allows you to:

• Grant specific permissions to employees using the domain in their email address.
• Import and reconcile company credit cards and Expensify Cards.
• Apply company credit card and Expensify Card rules.

Verifying a domain allows you to:

• Assign delegates for employees on vacation.
• Delete employee Expensify accounts.
• Enable SAML/SSO for secure login.

Note: Only private domains can be claimed and verified. Public domains (e.g., gmail.com) cannot be used.

Step 1: Claim Your Domain

1. Hover over Settings, then click Domains.
2. Click New Domain.
3. Enter your domain name (e.g., yourcompany.com).
4. Click Submit.

Step 2: Verify Domain Ownership

To verify a domain, you must have a Control workspace and access to your domain provider account (e.g., GoDaddy, Wix, Google Domains).

If you don’t complete the verification, you can still:

• Manage credit card expenses and domain admins.
• Add and remove domain admins.

Without verifying the domain, you cannot:

• Invite domain members.
• Add groups.
• Use domain reporting tools.
• Set delegates for employees on vacation.
• Enable SAML/SSO.

For provider-specific instructions, refer to your domain provider’s documentation.

To Verify a Domain:

1. Log in to your DNS service provider (e.g., Namecheap, GoDaddy, Amazon Route 53). If your domain is managed internally, contact your IT department.
2. Locate the DNS Records page (sometimes labeled as DNS Management or Zone File Editor).
3. Add a TXT record with the verification value provided in Expensify.
4. Save your changes.
5. In Expensify, go to the Domain Members tab and click Verify.

Once verified, an email will be sent to all domain members informing them that their accounts are now managed under the domain rules.

Add Another Domain

To add an additional domain:

1. Add your domain email address (@yourcompany.com) as a primary or secondary email in Expensify – How to add an email
2. Follow the steps above to claim and verify the new domain.
