Steps

Steps marked “human step” are ones only you can do: verapli never signs in, submits, pays or accepts terms for you.

  1. Sign in or create a Squarespace account

    Sign in to Squarespace. If you have no account yet, you create it yourself; verapli does not create accounts.

    • Guided by hand
    • Human step: You sign in

    Where: https://account.squarespace.com/

  2. Register the domain

    Buy the domain at Squarespace Domains (or run stripe projects add squarespace/domain).

    • Guided by hand
    • Human step: You add payment details
    • After: Sign in or create a Squarespace account
  3. Verify the registrant email within 15 days

    Click the link in the verification email (from no-reply@squarespace.com or customercare@squarespace.com depending on the registrar). Unverified domains are suspended after 15 days.

    • Guided by hand
    • Human step: You press submit
    • After: Register the domain
    The provider says
    Verify within 15 days or the domain is suspended. [3]
    If something goes wrong (3)
    • No verification email: Check spam, then use Resend Verification Email in the domains dashboard (contact support for Key-Systems domains). [3]
    • "Failed to send" next to the email: The address bounced; change the contact email and resend. [3]
    • Domain suspended: Find or resend the verification email, confirm the registrant email is correct, or switch to an address you can access. [4]
