Delivering digital product on Squarespace
Ecommerce is alive and well and delivering digital products is another (semi-easy) way to work passive income into your business!
If you are a product based business, evaluate whether you plan on having more than 20 products. If so, I would probably suggest Shopify over Squarespace just as a heads up!
If you are already on Squarespace and wanting to add digital products or are looking for a website platform that is easy to design on, has integrations all in it, and includes hosting, Squarespace is the way to go.
How to deliver a digital product:
- If you’re starting from scratch, use a commerce template (in the video I will show you how to do it without a commerce template)
- Link the payment processor (Apple Pay, Stripe or PayPal)
- Add products to sell
- Figure out the dang taxes (thankfully Squarespace has an article about how to set up taxes in Squarespace Commerce)
DON’T FORGET:
You need to have a privacy policy and terms of use on your website since you are collecting customer’s data. This is an important place to add your return policy and contact info.
Squarespace downloads are delivered via email and the digital download expires in 24 hours. This can be annoying, but if they don’t download it right away you can send them another notification in the backend of Squarespace ecommerce.
In this video I show you the difference between a Squarespace 7.0 and 7.1 shop and do a brief overview of how to create an online storefront!

I’ve got messy hair and a thirsty heart.
I overshare my life, and have an ultra-expressive personality. Some words people use to describe me are: helpful, real, fun, creative, authentic, and kind.
Elphaba from Wicked is kind of my alter-ego as I am always trying to forge my own path and make a difference in the World, somehow, someway, while also constantly criticizing myself and trying to become the better version of me.
Quality conversations + coffee come easy to me.
I’ve never had an issue connecting naturally with others (probs because I can go on and on about my life story, not that it is interesting, I just process externally, anyone else?!)
I find so much joy in helping and serving others and I give myself fully to whatever it is that engages me, whether that is running a 50k or creating a website in a day.
