How can I make my subdomain my primary domain?

Is there any way that I can make my subdomain my primary domain ([shop name.com] instead of [shop name.myshopfiy.com])?

Hi @lthrz1 ,

The name.myshopify.com is not a subdomain. It is a way for Shopify to track the Shopify stores and unfortunately, you cannot change this. You can however have your own domain for your customer to directly visit.
