THE SQUARESPACE NONPROFIT DISCOUNT AND HOW TO USE IT FOR YOUR CHARITY

As a nonprofit organization, one of the most crucial aspects of your digital marketing strategy is having a professional, user-friendly website. Your website serves as the face of your organization, and it needs to convey the right message and represent your mission accurately. If you're considering building a website on Squarespace, you may be wondering whether it offers any discounts for nonprofits. While Squarespace doesn't explicitly offer nonprofit discounts, there are ways to save big on your first annual subscription.

We'll explore the various pricing plans and features of Squarespace to help you decide whether it's the right choice for your nonprofit.


Pricing Plans for Squarespace:

Squarespace offers four pricing plans for its users: Personal, Business, Basic Commerce, and Advanced Commerce. The Personal plan offers basic website building tools (which is not applicable for any of my builds), while the Business plan adds access to marketing features and e-commerce capabilities. The Basic Commerce plan adds more robust e-commerce features, including abandoned cart recovery and advanced shipping options. Finally, the Advanced Commerce plan offers even more advanced e-commerce features, such as subscriptions and selling on Instagram.

While Squarespace does not offer a nonprofit discount, there are ways to save money on your subscription.

Nonprofit Discount Options:

While Squarespace does not offer a nonprofit-specific discount, there are other ways to save money on your subscription. For example, you can save 20% on your first annual subscription by using a Squarespace Expert ( *cough ME *). Additionally, Squarespace offers a 14-day free trial, meaning you can try out the platform before committing to a subscription.

Squarespace Features for Nonprofits:

Squarespace offers a range of features that can be particularly useful for nonprofits. For example, Squarespace websites are immediately mobile-responsive, which is crucial in today's digital landscape. Additionally, Squarespace offers a range of e-commerce features that can be useful for selling merchandise with dropshipping. For nonprofits that focus on visual media, Squarespace offers beautiful, customizable tools that can be easily adapted to your needs.

I even offer nonprofit templates for Squarespace that off you a jumpstart with your new squarespace website.

Customer Support and Resources:

Squarespace offers a range of resources to help users build their websites. This includes a variety of tutorials, webinars, and forums where users can learn from one another. Additionally, Squarespace provides 24/7 customer support via live chat, email, and phone. AND THIS TEAM IS THE BEST! This means that if you run into any issues, you can get the help you need quickly and efficiently.


To me, Squarespace is THE ONLY website builder to consider for your nonprofit organization. While it doesn't offer a nonprofit-specific discount, you can save money on your subscription by using a Squarespace Expert like me or taking advantage of the 14-day free trial. Additionally, Squarespace offers a range of features and resources that can be particularly helpful for nonprofits.
