How to log in to Squarespace
Step-by-step instructions for logging in to your Squarespace account on a computer or phone, and what to do if you can't get in.
Logging in to Squarespace is how you access your website's editor and settings. You do it through the Squarespace website — there's nothing to install.
Quick summary
Go to account.squarespace.com, enter your email and password, and you're in. If you forget your password, use the "Forgot password" link on the same page.
What you'll need
Beginner 2 minutes- The email address registered to your Squarespace account
- Your password
- A web browser (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, or Edge all work)
How to log in
Open your browser. Go to account.squarespace.com.
Enter your email address. Type the email you used to create your Squarespace account.
Enter your password. Type your password, then click Log In.
Complete two-factor verification if prompted. If you've set up two-factor authentication, you'll be asked to enter a code from your authentication app or a code sent by email. Enter the code to continue.
You're in. You'll see the Squarespace Home Menu, which shows all the websites linked to your account.
Logging in on your phone
The process is the same on a phone. Open any mobile browser (Safari on iPhone, Chrome on Android) and go to account.squarespace.com. The Squarespace app is also available on iOS and Android — it provides a simplified editor and lets you manage basic settings.
Mobile vs desktop editing
Some editing features are only fully available in the desktop (computer) editor. For anything beyond simple text changes, use a laptop or desktop computer when possible.
If you forgot your password
Go to account.squarespace.com.
Click "Forgot password?" below the password field.
Enter your email address and click the button to send a reset link.
Check your inbox for an email from Squarespace. Click the link in the email.
Create a new password. Choose something strong — a mix of letters, numbers, and symbols.
If you don't know which email address you used
Check for old emails from Squarespace in all your inboxes. Search for "squarespace" in your email. The address that received their newsletters or receipts is likely the one registered to your account.
If you still can't find it, contact Squarespace support — they can help you locate your account.
