Connect your Squarespace domain to your website while maintaining separate billing and permissions. Follow these step-by-step instructions for a successful connection.

Requirements:

  • Domain must be parked
  • Domain and website must be in the same Squarespace account
  • Admin rights to the website
  • Domain manager access to the domain

Connect Your Domain:

  1. Open domain dashboard
  2. Click your domain
  3. Select Website
  4. Click Connect Existing Website
  5. Choose target website
  6. Click Next, then Confirm

Change Domain Connection:

  1. Open domain dashboard
  2. Click your domain
  3. Select Website
  4. Click Change Connection
  5. Choose new website
  6. Click Next, then Confirm

Disconnect Your Domain:

  1. Open domain dashboard
  2. Click your domain
  3. Select Website
  4. Click Change Connection
  5. Choose Park This Domain
  6. Click Next, then Confirm

Important Notes:

  • Cannot connect domain to specific website pages (use forwarding instead)
  • Sub-domains use DNS records for connection
  • Remove third-party service entries before reconnecting to Squarespace
  • Keep billing and permissions separate from website settings

If Access Issues Occur:

  • Need website access? Request admin editor rights
  • Need domain access? Request domain manager status

This method maintains separate billing and permissions while ensuring proper domain functionality. For domain transfers or moves between websites, consult Squarespace's dedicated documentation.
