Launch checklist

Everything to check before you take real payments.

Work through this list top to bottom before announcing your launch.

Content

  • No "Acme" left: grep -rni "acme" src prints nothing.
  • The example blog post src/content/blog/welcome.mdx is deleted.
  • Terms and privacy have no [bracketed] placeholders left, include your refund policy, and name your company.
  • supportEmail in src/config.ts is an inbox you read.
  • Prices on the landing page match the prices of your Dodo products. See Changing a plan's price.
  • No made-up testimonials, logos or numbers.

Payments

  • Your business is verified in Dodo and live mode is enabled.
  • You've switched to live mode: live API key, live products, live webhook.
  • Test data is cleared from the production database (see Clear test data).
  • You've made one real purchase from start to finish, then refunded it in Dodo.

Sign-in and email

  • NEXT_PUBLIC_APP_URL in Vercel is your real address, starting with https://, without a trailing slash.
  • Your Resend domain shows Verified, and EMAIL_FROM uses it.
  • Signing up with email on the live site sends a confirmation email that arrives (check spam).
  • Google: production origin and redirect URI added, and the app published (not "Testing").
  • GitHub: an OAuth app whose callback URL is your production address.
  • You can sign in with every method shown on the sign-in page.

Hosting

  • vercel.json (with your function region) is committed.
  • Your custom domain is connected, and everything above uses it. See Custom domain.
  • You're an admin on production: /admin loads.
  • Build checks pass: npm run typecheck && npm run lint && npm test && npm run build.

After launch

  • Submit https://yourdomain.com/sitemap.xml in Google Search Console.
  • Check Developer → Webhooks in Dodo after the first real sales: every delivery should show 200.
  • Watch Vercel's Logs for errors in the first days.
