The short answer
The registry records Squarespace as a possible interpretation of SQUARESPACE. This descriptor-to-company association has not passed claim-level evidence review. Compare the exact line, amount and posted status with your own receipt or account activity; the name alone cannot confirm the merchant or whether you authorized the payment.
The notes below are unreviewed registry explanations, not confirmation of merchant identity, authorization or current policy. Claim-level source review is pending for this entry.
What is the Squarespace charge?
Unreviewed registry note: A credit card statement entry showing SQUARESPACE indicates a recurring subscription payment for website building tools, domain registrations, or digital hosting services provided by Squarespace. This transaction occurs automatically on a monthly or annual billing cycle when your website plan or custom domain name renews.
Unreviewed registry note: Small business owners, portfolio creators, and bloggers rely on this platform to design, host, and manage professional websites. Payments are charged automatically using the credit card stored in your account settings. If you see this merchant name on your bank statement, it confirms that your website hosting or domain registration plan is currently active and renewing.
Google Domains Migration
Unreviewed registry note: If you previously purchased a domain name through Google Domains, those accounts were recently sold and migrated to Squarespace.
Unreviewed registry note: Your annual domain renewal will now appear as a Squarespace charge, even if you never built a website with them.
- Step 1 Unreviewed registry note: Log in to your Squarespace account and review to the Billing panel to view your invoices.

I manage multiple websites; how do I know which one this is for?
Unreviewed registry note: Each site has its own billing cycle. Check the invoice number on your bank statement against the invoices in your Squarespace dashboards.
