Find the name of the server where your TLD is stored

When you buy a Squarespace domain, Squarespace becomes the primary contact for questions and issues regarding your domain and its registration. Squarespace hosts over 400 top-level domains (TLDs), like .com, .org and .uk. Because Squarespace offers customers so many TLDs, we need multiple servers to store them all. We currently house our TLDs in the following servers (aka registrars of record):

• Squarespace Domains LLC
• Squarespace Domains II LLC
• Tucows
• Key Systems

What this means is that although Squarespace is the registrar (or provider) of your domain, your domain might live in one of our four servers. Whois, a public database that keeps track of where domains are registered, refers to each of these servers as a registrar of record. The registrar of record is listed as a registrar in the Whois record for your domain.

Most of the time, you won’t need to know your specific registrar of record. However, you might need to contact your registrar of record if your domain has expired and been reclaimed by your domain's registrar. You can use this guide as a reference for identifying your registrar of record.

Note: This guide offers an advanced and high-level understanding of Squarespace’s domain registrars of record. For more general information about locating the provider of your domain, visit Who’s my domain provider?

Registrars of record

The table below lists the four registrars of record for each TLD, along with links to the contact information for each registrar of record. If your domain has expired and been reclaimed by the domain registrar, you may need to contact your registrar of record to renew your domain.

To find your domain’s TLD, press Ctrl + F (Command + F on Mac) and search for the specific TLD, like .com or .co.uk.
