## Google Play Console account

1. [Log into the Google Play Console account](https://play.google.com/console/)

If website verification is required for the Developer account, a notification will appear.

2. Click the **View Details** button to proceed:

<img src="https://mintcdn.com/kajabi-support/xXNsh6vIFsWHcSnx/articles/images/bb3d9c16_32884687522331.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=xXNsh6vIFsWHcSnx&q=85&s=b59b615f5918dcb8e8be79c5ef86591b" alt="Add TXT details" width="960" height="455" data-path="articles/images/bb3d9c16_32884687522331.png" />

6. Click **Add** after entering the above details
7. Navigate back to Google Search Console to the Verify domain ownership pop-up

## Verify website in Google Play Console

You will then need to return to the Google Play Console tab.

1. Click **Verify Website** to proceed:

<img src="https://mintcdn.com/kajabi-support/NHosPLWrdBkWec8r/articles/images/1bd972a8_32884687528731.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=NHosPLWrdBkWec8r&q=85&s=ac68c7132350a6feeaa069189d8bcb35" alt="Verify Website" width="944" height="490" data-path="articles/images/1bd972a8_32884687528731.png" />

After verification, you will be redirected to the Account Details page.

2. Scroll down to the **Organization Website** section and confirm that the custom domain is listed
3. Then, click **Send Verification Request** to finalize the process:

<img src="https://mintcdn.com/kajabi-support/2rWeSU56xHYQYbo0/articles/images/c2d79695_32884667361691.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=2rWeSU56xHYQYbo0&q=85&s=19644eee895f0c6b0c3d883bb0ea2582" alt="Send Verification Request" width="995" height="413" data-path="articles/images/c2d79695_32884667361691.png" />

<Note>
  **Note:**
  While the verification process may often complete instantly, there are instances when an email will be sent to the Developer account email address requesting you to verify the domain from there. In such cases, you will need to return to Google Search Console and repeat the domain verification steps. This scenario is particularly common for custom domains that utilize Path B in Kajabi. Below is a sample email you may receive regarding this verification:

  <img src="https://mintcdn.com/kajabi-support/0-YPsbfqtWW6JQNQ/articles/images/f9ac647c_32884687538331.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=0-YPsbfqtWW6JQNQ&q=85&s=0237e163560a694ace0935e489e20f43" alt="Verification email" width="949" height="496" data-path="articles/images/f9ac647c_32884687538331.png" />
</Note>

## Confirmation of website verification

Once the website is verified, a confirmation message will appear on the Account details page under the Organization Website section:

<img src="https://mintcdn.com/kajabi-support/0SrqXIvQyuWTYRde/articles/images/d40d40ce_32884667369627.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=0SrqXIvQyuWTYRde&q=85&s=81da714efccee14da1b561c52c5dbe9d" alt="Confirmation message" width="973" height="467" data-path="articles/images/d40d40ce_32884667369627.png" />

Now you can return to the homepage of the Google Play Console.

The notification for website verification should now be cleared, indicating successful verification.

## If domain settings are managed through a domain provider

After obtaining the TXT record, you will need to add the TXT record to the domain provider's DNS Records.

<Note>
  **Note:**
  Refer to the domain provider's help resources for adding TXT records.
</Note>

1. Navigate back to the **Verify domain ownership via DNS record** tab
2. Click **Verify**:

<img src="https://mintcdn.com/kajabi-support/0SrqXIvQyuWTYRde/articles/images/d62a6b31_32884749141915.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=0SrqXIvQyuWTYRde&q=85&s=d2c4a87f24262776c84ae1c436855ecc" alt="Verify button" width="902" height="733" data-path="articles/images/d62a6b31_32884749141915.png" />

Then follow the verification steps above to complete the process.
