Managing registered domains through Google Workspace is straightforward when you understand the relationship between Google Workspace and Squarespace. Here's what you need to know:

Google Workspace and Squarespace Domain Partnership

When creating a new Google Workspace account, you can register a domain through Squarespace. This creates a reseller domain managed jointly by both platforms, with specific responsibilities divided between them.

Identifying Your Reseller Domain

Simply check your domains dashboard - if you have a reseller domain, you'll see the reseller's name listed under the domain's expiration date.

Management Responsibilities

Google Workspace handles:

  • Cancellations
  • Auto-renewal settings
  • Refunds
  • Payment information updates

Squarespace manages:

  • DNS records
  • Domain forwarding
  • Contact information
  • Nameserver changes
  • Whois privacy
  • Domain suspension issues
  • Domain locking/unlocking
  • Domain transfers

Accessing Your Squarespace Account

  1. Log out of any existing Squarespace accounts
  2. Visit squarespace.com/login
  3. Click "Continue with Google"
  4. Select your Google Workspace account
  5. Access the Domains dashboard

Important Notes:

  • Verify your domain within 15 days to avoid suspension
  • Reseller domains can be linked to Squarespace sites but can't be transferred
  • Canceling Google Workspace doesn't automatically cancel your domain
  • Domain billing remains separate from website billing

Remember to verify your domain through the confirmation email sent to your registration contact address to prevent suspension.
