Can I have a heroku free application with domain? [closed]

I would like to put a domain in my free heroku app, because I don't have a international credit card (I would like to pay, if it is possible with debit card, if it is how can I pay with a debit card?). The domain is a Brazilian domain, and I would like to know if is possible with a free account, and how can I do this? Thanks very much!

Do you need a domain for Heroku?

Since Heroku uses dynamic IP addresses, it's necessary to use a CNAME-like record (often referred to as ALIAS or ANAME records) so that you can point your root domain to another domain. See examples below.

Is Heroku app free forever?

Starting November 28th, 2022, free Heroku Dynos, free Heroku Postgres, and free Heroku Data for Redis® will no longer be available. If you have apps using any of these resources, you must upgrade to paid plans by this date to ensure your apps continue to run and to retain your data.

How many free Heroku apps can I have?

A 'Free' tier Heroku account allows up to 5 apps.

How long does Heroku app stay up?

Usage. By default, Heroku apps on the free tier will sleep after 30 minutes of inactivity.

Yes, you can have custom domain names for free apps as well, checkout: https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/custom-domains

Domains can be added to both free and paid Heroku apps and adding domains does not incur extra charges. For verification purposes, you must verify your Heroku account to add domains to apps.

As for payments, as long as it's a Visa/Master Card (or such) debit card, you can simply put those details in the billing section and it'll work fine. I've been using such a card to pay for heroku services for quite some time now.
