Move from a third-party subscription service to Squarespace's built-in system to charge your customers on a recurring basis.

If you use Moonclerk or PayWhirl to charge customers on a recurring basis, switch to our built-in tools for selling subscription products. This way, you can fulfill orders, manage customers, and merchandise your products all from Squarespace. By using our built-in tools, your site will look better, feel more cohesive, and customers won’t need to switch platforms to buy your products. Squarespace subscription products are fully supported by our Customer Support team, unlike using custom code.

Note: You can only sell physical and service products as subscriptions. It’s not possible to accept donations on a recurring basis at this time.

Before you begin

• To switch from Moonclerk and PayWhirl, customers will have to resubscribe to your products in Squarespace. There’s no automatic way to import subscribers and their payment details.
• If you’re new to Squarespace Commerce, Connect your site to a payment processor, and learn about other steps to set up your online store in Getting started with Squarespace Commerce.
• It's not possible to accept recurring donations.
