What is Squarespace Member Areas?

Squarespace Member Areas is an exclusive page (or pages) on a Squarespace website only accessible through a certain permission granted via membership. In simple terms, it’s called Paid Content – content you can only read or watch by paying for access to the content.

So you can now upload and host your videos, music, photos, stories, blogs, etc. on Squarespace Member Areas. And start earning passively on your exclusive content through the payments your audience makes to access your content.

How do I Earn in Member Areas?

Earning in Member Areas is easy. After setting up and testing the Member Areas ourselves, we’ve boiled down the setup process to 3 simple steps.

STEP #1

First make your own website on Squarespace. You can start with the 14-Day Trial for FREE.  However, Squarespace is a subscription based website platform so remember to subscribe to a plan after testing out the free trial or you won’t be able to edit your website after the trial expires.

Tip: Get a discount on your subscription by using promo codes or discount codes like this one.

STEP #2

Second, create your own Member Areas section. Fill in the details of the Squarespace Member Areas section – set the Name of your Member Areas and the Payment.

Select from the 3 Payment options for your Member Areas.

  • Option 1: Fix Payment – choose this option for 1 time Membership payment but you can also set Membership Fee into a number of payments or installment.

  • Option 2: Recurring Payment – choose this option if you want a subscription based type of Membership.

  • Option 3: Free – choose this option if you want to give your Membership free of charge ($0.00).

STEP #3

Finally, add pages to your Squarespace Member Areas. There are many kinds of pages you can add to your Member Areas - you can add a Gallery, Blog, Booking, Album, Store, Event and many more.
