Now the customer has two domains and we have been training users to look for signs of phishing attempts using look alike domains AND ask them to put in their CC to buy things. Hard pass.

They already have to do that, only currently they have to put it into customername.shop-saas.com, not customername-shop.com, or even shop.customername.com.


The customer would already have had two domains because the subdomain was off the SaaS domain, not the client domain.

Client.SaaSdomain.tld

not

Shop.clientdomain.tld

If you’re setting up your service as a subdomain off the client domain, you won’t face the risk that one customer will get your entire service domain blocked (since it’s the customers domain).
