Can You Transfer Squarespace Domains?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 1:10 am

You can absolutely transfer your Squarespace domain to another registrar! In fact, we make it easy to do so. Here are the simple steps:

First, log in to your Squarespace account and go to the Domains panel. Then, click on the domain you want to transfer and select Transfer Domain from the Actions menu.

On the next page, select your new registrar from the drop-down menu and enter the authorization code they provided. Finally, review your information and click Transfer Domain. That’s it!

Please note: If you’re transferring your domain to another Squarespace site, we’ll automatically update your site’s DNS settings. If you’re transferring your domain to a third-party registrar, you’ll need to update your DNS settings after the transfer is complete.

PRO TIP: If you are considering transferring your Squarespace domain to another registrar, be aware that doing so may result in the loss of your website and any associated data. Additionally, your domain may become unavailable for up to 60 days while the transfer is processed. We recommend that you backup your website before initiating a transfer.

Also note: Transfers can take up to seven days to complete. During this time, your Squarespace site will remain active and you won’t be able to make changes to your DNS settings.
