Can You Change the Email on Squarespace?

Yes, you can change the email address associated with your Squarespace account. This can be necessary for several reasons, including updating your contact information, changing your email provider, or simply rebranding your business. The process is relatively straightforward, but it's important to follow the steps carefully to ensure that your account information is updated correctly.

Here's a detailed guide on how to change the email on your Squarespace account:

Steps to Change Your Email Address on Squarespace

1. Log in to Your Squarespace Account:

  • Navigate to the Squarespace website and log in using your current email address and password.

2. Access Account Settings:

  • Once logged in, click on your profile picture or initials at the bottom of the navigation menu to open the Account Dashboard.
  • From the Account Dashboard, click on the "Account Settings" option.

3. Update Your Email Address:

  • In the Account Settings, you will find various options. Look for the "Login" information section or a similar option that includes your email settings.
  • Click on the email address field to edit it.
  • Enter your new email address. Ensure that it is a valid and accessible email account, as you may need to verify this address.

4. Verify Your New Email Address:

  • Squarespace will likely send a verification email to your new email address.
  • Open the email from Squarespace and follow the verification link to confirm your new email address.

5. Update Any Additional Settings:

  • Depending on your setup, you may need to update your email address in other parts of your Squarespace account, such as billing information, notification settings, or third-party integrations.

Considerations and Limitations

Primary vs. Billing Email:

  • The email you use to log in can be different from the billing email. Ensure you update both if necessary. The billing email is where Squarespace sends all billing-related notifications.

Email Verification:

  • Make sure you have access to the new email address before initiating the change, as you will need to verify the new email.

Third-Party Integrations:

  • If you've connected third-party services to your Squarespace account (e.g., Google Workspace, Mailchimp), you may need to update your email address within those services as well.

Domain-Associated Emails:

  • If you have a custom domain with email accounts associated (e.g., yourname@yourdomain.com), ensure those settings are updated if necessary.

Support and Troubleshooting:

  • If you encounter any issues or need assistance, don't hesitate to contact Squarespace customer support. They can guide you through the process if you run into any problems.

By following these steps, you can successfully update the email address associated with your Squarespace account. Always double-check that all relevant settings are updated to ensure seamless operation across all aspects of your site's management.
