# How to Claim Your Real Estate Business in ChatGPT

## Take Control of Your ChatGPT Listing With Domain Verification Support From Sierra Interactive

When you claim your business in ChatGPT, you control how your business appears there. The process has three parts. First, you start the claim in ChatGPT. Next, you email our team a verification record. Last, you confirm the claim after we add that record to your domain. Our team does the DNS work for you, so you don’t need to change any domain settings yourself.

---

### What You Need

- **Your ChatGPT account.** Sign in with the account you want to use to manage your business profile. ChatGPT sends its claim decision to this account, so pick one you check often.
- **Access to your email.** You’ll send us the verification record by email.

[back to top](https://help.sierrainteractive.com/helpcenter/claim-your-business-in-chatgpt#top)

### Step 1: Start Your Claim in ChatGPT

1. Go to [chatgpt.com/business-hub](https://chatgpt.com/business-hub).
2. Search for your business name and select your listing. Check the address to make sure you have the right one. 
     - If your business isn’t listed, select **Create** at the top of the results.
   ![claim-chatgpt-business-sierra-interactive](https://help.sierrainteractive.com/hs-fs/hubfs/claim-chatgpt-business-sierra-interactive.png?width=560&height=340&name=claim-chatgpt-business-sierra-interactive.png)
3. In the **Claim \[your business\] in ChatGPT** window, click to continue.
4. Confirm that the account shown is the one you want to use, then click **Continue**.
5. On the **Choose how to verify your claim** screen, select **Website domain**, then click **Continue**.

- ![confirm-claim-chatgpt-business-sierra-interactive](https://help.sierrainteractive.com/hs-fs/hubfs/confirm-claim-chatgpt-business-sierra-interactive.png?width=560&height=249&name=confirm-claim-chatgpt-business-sierra-interactive.png)

**Important:** Please don’t choose **Business phone**. Our team completes verification through your website domain. 

[back to top](https://help.sierrainteractive.com/helpcenter/claim-your-business-in-chatgpt#top)

### Step 2: Email Us Your TXT Record

Next, ChatGPT shows a screen titled **Verify that you control \[your domain\]**. This screen has three values: **Type**, **Name or host**, and **Value or content**. Our team adds this record to your domain for you.

- ![txt-verification-chatgpt-business-sierra-interactive](https://help.sierrainteractive.com/hs-fs/hubfs/txt-verification-chatgpt-business-sierra-interactive.png?width=560&height=336&name=txt-verification-chatgpt-business-sierra-interactive.png)

The record must match exactly. One wrong character will cause verification to fail. For this reason, please copy and paste each value into your email. Don’t send a screenshot.

1. Click the copy button next to **Type** and paste the value into a new email.
2. Do the same for **Name or host** and **Value or content**.
3. Send the email to **[support@sierrainteractive.com](mailto:support@sierrainteractive.com)**.
4. Leave the ChatGPT page open, or come back to it later. You’ll finish the claim on this same screen.

> **Tip:** The record has an expiration time, shown under the values. Send it to us as soon as you have it.

##### Example Email

Use this template to make sure we get everything we need:

> **To:** support@sierrainteractive.com
> 
> **Subject:** ChatGPT business verification TXT record
> 
> Hi,
> 
> Please add the following TXT record to my domain for ChatGPT business verification.
> 
> Type: \[paste here\]
> 
> Name or host: \[paste here\]
> 
> Value or content: \[paste here\]
> 
> Thank you!

### Step 3: Verify Your Domain

1. When our team tells you the record has been added, go back to the ChatGPT verification screen and click **Verify domain**. 
     - If verification doesn’t go through, wait about 15 minutes and click **Verify domain** again. A new record can take some time to be recognized.
2. ChatGPT shows **We’re reviewing your claim**. ChatGPT emails its decision to the account you used to make the claim. 
   
   ![reviewing-claim-chatgpt-business-sierra-interactive](https://help.sierrainteractive.com/hs-fs/hubfs/reviewing-claim-chatgpt-business-sierra-interactive.png?width=560&height=334&name=reviewing-claim-chatgpt-business-sierra-interactive.png)
3. When your claim is approved, you’ll see **You’ve claimed \[your business\]**. Your listing will also show a blue verified badge.

- ![approval-screen-chatgpt-business-sierra-interactive](https://help.sierrainteractive.com/hs-fs/hubfs/approval-screen-chatgpt-business-sierra-interactive.png?width=560&height=177&name=approval-screen-chatgpt-business-sierra-interactive.png)

<https://help.sierrainteractive.com/helpcenter/claim-your-business-in-chatgpt#top>

### FAQ's

##### Do I need to change my DNS settings?

No. Our team adds the TXT record to your domain for you.

##### Can I send a screenshot of the TXT record?

No. Please copy and paste each value. The record must match exactly, and text from a screenshot can include errors.

##### What if my business isn’t listed in ChatGPT?

Select **Create** at the top of the search results to make a new listing, then continue with the claim.

##### What if verification fails?

Wait about 15 minutes, then click **Verify domain** again. A new record can take some time to be recognized.

##### How will I know if my claim is approved?

ChatGPT emails its decision to the account you used to make the claim. An approved listing shows a blue verified badge.
