Can You Change Email on Squarespace?

Yes, you can change the email associated with your Squarespace account. Here are the detailed steps required to change your email address on Squarespace:

Changing the Account Email Address

  1. Log In to Your Squarespace Account:
  2. Go to Squarespace.com and log in using your current email address and password.

  3. Access Your Account Settings:

  4. On the Home Menu, click on the profile icon or the "Account" button (usually represented by your initials or profile picture at the bottom-left corner).

  5. Edit Account Settings:

  6. In the account menu, click on "Account Settings."

  7. Change Email Address:

  8. Under "Account Settings," locate the section labeled "Email Address" or similar.
  9. Click on the pencil icon or the "Edit" button next to your current email address.
  10. Enter the new email address you want to use.
  11. Squarespace will likely require you to enter your account password to verify this change.

  12. Verify the New Email Address:

  13. After updating your email, Squarespace will send a verification email to the new address.
  14. Go to your email inbox, find the verification email from Squarespace, and follow the instructions to confirm the change.

Additional Considerations

  • Email Aliases:
  • If you're using an email alias or forwarding service, ensure that you have access to the email inbox where the verification email will be sent.

  • Password Security:

  • Ensure your password is secure and different from other accounts. Consider updating your password if you haven’t done so recently to maintain account security when changing important account details like your email address.

  • Sub-Users:

  • If your Squarespace account has multiple administrators or contributors, note that this change will only affect the account you are logged into. Other users will need to update their email settings individually if necessary.

Changing Emails for Billing and Notifications

If you need to change the email address that receives billing and administrative notifications, you can usually set this up separately:

  1. Billing and Admin Email:
  2. Go to the "Billing & Account" section available from the main menu.
  3. Here, you can specify different email addresses for billing notifications, invoices, and other administrative communications.

Limitations

  • Domain Registration Emails:
  • If you’ve registered a domain through Squarespace, changing the email address on your Squarespace account does not automatically change the administrative contact email address for your domain. You will need to update the email address for domain registration separately via the domain settings.

By following the steps above, you should be able to successfully update your email address on Squarespace. Should you encounter any difficulties, Squarespace's support resources or customer service team can provide further assistance.
