Getting started with Squarespace Circle

Squarespace Circle is a program designed to support, inspire, and engage the community of creatives, developers, and designers who use Squarespace to build beautiful websites, send engaging email campaigns, and set up online schedulers for themselves and their clients. Circle members get longer trial periods, prioritized customer support, and access to exclusive content.

Circle membership is free and open to all Squarespace customers. Visit Squarespace Circle to learn more. 

Circle members are assigned to one of three statuses: Circle Silver Partner, Circle Gold Partner, or Circle Platinum Partner.

We use a point system to determine your Circle membership status. Your status reflects your current subscription activity with Squarespace and can change over time. As you take more actions, you earn points and unlock more benefits. Learn more about Circle member statuses. 

As a Circle member, you get select benefits and access to Circle member-specific programs. Visit the links below to learn more about Circle member perks:

Squarespace Marketplace is a program that connects people who need website design and development help with qualified web designers from Circle. It's powered by 99designs by Vista. We periodically invite eligible Circle members to participate in Marketplace as Experts. To learn more, visit Hiring a Squarespace Expert.

Circle members have access to exclusive Squarespace benefits, but aren't endorsed or accredited by Squarespace. While it's fine to mention Circle membership in marketing and client communications, as per the Circle Terms you shouldn't misrepresent yourself as being affiliated with or endorsed by Squarespace.
