Set up white-label

White-label makes your community look and feel entirely like your own product. In Bonfire, white-label covers three things: removing Bonfire branding, using your own domain, and installing as your branded PWA.

White-label does not include custom email senders. Transactional and notification emails are sent by Bonfire.

Steps

  1. Go to Admin → Branding.
  2. Toggle Remove "Powered by Bonfire" to hide the Bonfire credit in the footer and app chrome.
  3. Confirm your brand name, logo, and favicon are set under Admin → Branding. These appear in the app header, browser tab, and the installed app.
  4. Connect a custom domain under Admin → Domain so members never see a bonfire URL (see Configure a custom domain).
  5. Under PWA settings, set your app name, short name, theme color, and icon. This controls how the community appears when a member installs it to their home screen or desktop.
  6. Save. Members will see your brand everywhere — header, tab title, install prompt, and home-screen icon.

FAQ

Can I send emails from my own address? No. Custom email senders are not supported. Emails come from Bonfire's system.

Is white-label available on every plan? White-label is a paid capability. Check your plan in Admin → Billing.

Does removing branding affect functionality? No. It only hides the Bonfire credit; all features keep working.

Can I add custom CSS to restyle everything? Yes, on the Business and Enterprise plans. Go to Admin → Branding → Custom CSS, write your styles, preview, and save — your CSS loads on your live community. On Starter and Growth, branding is controlled through logo, colors, and PWA settings.
