Sounds good, I'll explore this option then. Cheers!

Hmm I'll try to go with your first suggestion then, as Cloudflare becomes more and more successful / already being used a lot this could cause frequent issues — great to know.

Would the HTTP pre-validation be required as well then? From here: https://developers.cloudflare.com/cloudflare-for-platforms/cloudflare-for-saas/domain-support/hostname-validation/ I was under the impression it's either / or.

You can skip prevalidation, just do cname + http validation, they just add cname and wait. Would incur more downtime compared to prevalidation though if they were already using the domain.
Alright might just go with this then, good to stay with the Cloudflare ecosystem. I suppose I could have the customers set up the CNAME wildcard, then assuming the ("automatic" API created custom hostname) matches for the wildcard subdomain, things should work?

Hmm I mean I could add subdomains as custom hostnames like you suggested on a piece-by-piece basis, yes. However it'd be a huge pain for the customers — if they have like 20 languages, would have to setup 20x TXT and CNAME records, plus we get charged 10c/mo for each (less of an issue).
Otherwise, Business or higher can be used with CNAME setups, you add their base simonilincev.com as a cname biz or higher partial zone, and then for each subdomain they want to use, you have them cname to a specific cloudflare.net subdomain and configure the record on their end
This sounds a bit more promising but would require similar piece-wise work for each subdomain? Many thanks for your support, every response saves me like 1 hr of research 🙏

Great thank you for this information! I'll look into the program and migrate elsewhere if it doesn't work out. Sorry to bug you again but literally the only thing I'd need this for is to prevent a cross-user banned error à la https://es.simonilincev.com/. Would you by chance know of any alternate ways of proxying client domains to a Cloudflare site?

Would you know by chance how "enterprise" you have to be to get the Enterprise billing? This is for a student startup, not sure if they work with smaller orgs.
