Find your DNS provider

How to discover which company manages DNS for your domain — in Reloop, at your registrar, or with a quick lookup.

You need to know who hosts your nameservers before you can publish Reloop records (or before Auto-populate can work).

Method 1 — Reloop dashboard (easiest)

  1. Add the domain at Domains if you have not already.
  2. Open the domain detail page.
  3. Reloop reads public nameservers and shows a Provider chip when it recognizes the host (Cloudflare, GoDaddy, Vercel, Namecheap, …).

If Reloop shows a provider:

  • Auto populate on the domain page → use Auto-populate
  • Otherwise → open that host’s guide under Provider guides and add records manually

If Reloop cannot detect a provider, use Method 2 or 3.

Method 2 — Registrar control panel

  1. Log in where you bought / renew the domain.
  2. Open the domain → Nameservers / DNS / Manage DNS.
  3. Note the nameserver hostnames, for example:
Nameserver containsLikely DNS host
cloudflare.comCloudflare
vercel-dns.comVercel
domaincontrol.comGoDaddy
registrar-servers.comNamecheap
awsdns-AWS Route 53
domainchief.Domain Chief
dnsowl.com / hostsilo.comNameSilo
ui-dns.IONOS
squarespace.com / googledomains.comSquarespace
hetzner.com / hetzner.deHetzner
hostinger. / dns-parking.comHostinger
gandi.netGandi
porkbun.comPorkbun
strato.de / strato-hosting.euStrato
dreamhost.com / dreamhosters.comDreamHost
as207960.net / glauca.digitalGlauca Digital
wordpress.com / wp.comWordPress.com
pleskPlesk (or your host’s Plesk panel)

Then open the matching provider guide.

Method 3 — Public lookup

In the browser

Use any “DNS lookup” / “whois” tool and query NS records for your domain (e.g. acme.com).

On your computer

dig NS acme.com +short
# or
nslookup -type=NS acme.com

Example output:

ada.ns.cloudflare.com.
bob.ns.cloudflare.com.

→ DNS is on Cloudflare.

Bought at A, DNS at B

If the registrar is GoDaddy but NS are Cloudflare, ignore GoDaddy’s DNS record editor for Reloop. Edit Cloudflare. Full explanation: Registrar vs DNS host.

Still stuck?

Use the Unknown provider guide: open whatever panel controls the NS hosts you found, and paste the records from Reloop.
