Squarespace Affiliate Program vs. Squarespace Circle referral payments

Last updated April 13, 2026 18:03

Participate in our exclusive partnership programs to get paid for generating Squarespace subscriptions.

When you join our Squarespace Affiliate Program or register for Squarespace Circle referral payments, you can earn a commission by bringing customers to Squarespace. There are no fees associated with our programs, so it’s free to participate, and you’re welcome to participate in both. However, referral payments are only available to Circle partners, and to join the Affiliate Program you need to apply and be accepted. How you earn commissions depends on the program you join. This guide outlines the differences between the Squarespace Affiliate Program and the Squarespace Circle referral payments.

Squarespace Affiliate Program

With the Squarespace Affiliate Program, you can earn commissions on Squarespace subscriptions that are generated using tracked links. After you apply, your site will be thoroughly reviewed based on selective criteria. The Affiliate Program provides you with custom links and banners that you can post on your website, and when visitors make a purchase using these links, you’ll receive a commission.

You earn commission when first-time Squarespace customers use your link or banner to start a:

  • Website subscription
  • Acuity Scheduling subscription

Subscription payouts range from $100 to $200, and there’s no cap on the number of subscriptions you can generate in a year. For full details, visit Affiliate Marketing Program Master Terms.

Affiliate benefits

After you become an affiliate, you’ll:

  • Have access to fresh, creative assets to keep your audience engaged
  • Receive an exclusive monthly newsletter about Squarespace’s latest features and platform updates
  • Receive tracking links and banners to simplify referring people to Squarespace
  • Get access to insights to track your referrals and the commissions you’ve earned

To apply to join our affiliate program and learn more about subscription payouts, go to squarespace.com/affiliates and click Start earning. You don't need to be a Circle partner to participate in the Affliate program.

There isn’t a separate affiliate program for Acuity Scheduling. Subscription payouts for any new Acuity Scheduling subscriptions that originate via your links are $45, if the new customer signs up for a paid Acuity Scheduling subscription within 45 days.

As an affiliate, you’ll need to provide live links or screenshots to show your Acuity content is live.

If you have questions about the Acuity affiliate program, email squarespace@accelerationpartners.com.

Squarespace Circle referral payments

Circle partners can earn money for bringing clients to Squarespace. There are no links or referral codes for this benefit.
