production url

Noun
DefinitionA "production URL" is the specific web address (Uniform Resource Locator) where the live, fully operational version of a website, web application, or API is hosted and accessible to its intended end-users. It signifies the final, stable, and publicly available environment after all development, testing, and staging phases are complete. This URL is distinct from development, staging, or testing URLs, which are used internally during the creation and quality assurance process. The production URL is the address that customers and the general public use to interact with the finished service.
Example

"After months of meticulous testing, the new e-commerce platform was finally deployed to the production URL, ready for customer access."
