Should I Transfer My GoDaddy Domain to Squarespace?

Last updated on December 10, 2022 @ 3:02 am

When you’re ready to move your GoDaddy domain to Squarespace, you can do it in just a few clicks. Our connection with GoDaddy makes transferring your domain easy and seamless. You can keep your domain name and registrar the same, and we’ll automatically update your DNS settings.

If you have a domain name through GoDaddy and want to use it with Squarespace, you can transfer your domain to us. In most cases, you can transfer your domain for free. If you paid for Privacy Protection when you registered your domain, you’ll need to disable it before transferring.

Here’s how to transfer your domain from GoDaddy to Squarespace:

    1. Log in to your GoDaddy account and open your product list.

    2. Under Domains, next to the domain you want to transfer, click Manage.

    3. In the navigation panel, click Transfer to another registrar.

    4. Under Start Your Transfer, enter the authorization code that was emailed to the registered email address for your domain.

If you don’t have this code or didn’t receive it, select Get Auth Code. An email will be sent with instructions on how to get your code.

If there isn’t an email address associated with your domain name, contact support.

PRO TIP: There are a few things to consider before transferring your GoDaddy domain to Squarespace. First, Squarespace domains cannot be transferred to another registrar, so once you transfer your domain to Squarespace, you will not be able to transfer it out later. Second, when you transfer a domain to Squarespace, the 60-day lock period begins anew. This means that you will not be able to transfer your domain away from Squarespace for at least 60 days. Finally, keep in mind that any email accounts associated with your GoDaddy domain will also be transferred to Squarespace and you will no longer have access to them once the transfer is complete.

5. Enter the email address where you want the receipt for this transaction sent, then click Continue.
