To change your Squarespace account email address, follow these essential steps:

Prerequisites:

  • You must be logged into your account
  • The new email address cannot be linked to another Squarespace account
  • Don't use custom domain email addresses (like Google Workspace) for your account

Step-by-Step Instructions:

  1. Navigate to Account Settings:
  • Go to Account and Security settings
  • Log in if prompted
  1. Change Email Process:
  • Click "Change email address"
  • Enter your current account password
  • Input your new email address twice
  • Click "Save"
  • Check your new email for verification link
  • Click the verification link from [email protected]

Important Notes:

  • This change affects login for all connected sites
  • Form submission notifications won't automatically update
  • Squarespace Circle members: Your Circle login will also update

Common Issues:

  • If the new email is already in use, you'll receive an error
  • For unused accounts, delete them first to free up the email
  • If you can't log in, use the account recovery process

Additional Considerations:

  • To transfer site ownership, use the site ownership change process
  • For alternative login methods (Apple, Facebook, Google), use different settings
  • Update form settings separately to receive form submissions at your new email

If you cannot access your account, first recover your email address through the account recovery process before attempting to change it.

Remember to update your form submission settings separately after changing your account email to ensure you continue receiving form submissions.
