Circle member discounts

Your Circle membership includes a 20% discount on new website and online store annual subscriptions, and new annual Acuity Scheduling subscriptions. Keep in mind:

• The discount applies to the first payment of a new Website or Commerce plan with an annual billing cycle, or to the first payment of an Acuity Scheduling subscription with an annual billing cycle.
• The discount doesn't apply to future renewals, reactivations, or plan changes.
• The discount isn’t valid in combination with other offers, apart from our Squarespace domain offer, our Google Workspace offer, and the discount for domain upgrades.

When the Circle discount applies

If one of the following occurs, the Circle discount automatically applies: 

• If a Circle member starts the website trial, the discount applies to the first subscription payment, even if a non-Circle member pays to start the subscription. The first payment can be a website, Email Campaigns, Digital Product plan, or an Acuity Scheduling subscription.
• If a Circle member doesn’t start the website trial, the discount for the first payment only applies if a Circle member pays to start the subscription. The first payment can be a website, Email Campaigns, Digital Product plan, or an Acuity Scheduling subscription.
• If a Circle member starts an Acuity Scheduling trial that isn’t attached to a Squarespace website, the discount applies to the first subscription payment, even if a non-Circle member pays to start the Acuity Scheduling subscription.

Tip: If you’re a non-Circle member who started a trial, you can invite a Circle member as a contributor with billing permissions. This way, the Circle member can login, pay for the subscription, and ensure you receive the Circle discount.

Extended site trials

After joining Circle, every new site you create under your email address starts with a six-month trial. Trials started before joining Circle follow our standard 14-day trial period. If you need more time after two weeks, you can extend it.

Circle referral payments

If you're eligible, you can unlock referral payments by bringing clients to Squarespace. After your referrals have generated enough qualifying subscriptions, you’ll receive referral payments for each subsequent qualifying subscription that you refer. Squarespace may occasionally run promotions related to the referral payment benefit. For full details, visit the Circle Referral Payments Benefit Master Terms.
