Specifically, merchants can create an online store, manage sales, market to their customers, and accept payments both online and in person.<\/p>\r\n<p>At the time of this writing, the platform is currently used by <a href=\"https:\/\/trends.builtwith.com\/shop\/Shopify\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">about 7 million live websites<\/a>, including famous names like Kylie Cosmetics, Gymshark, and Allbirds.<\/p>\r\n<p>On the other hand, Squarespace is a flexible website builder that helps people create their sites for just about any purpose.

That means you don't need any coding skills to use Squarespace; just pick a template and customize it for your needs.<\/p>\r\n<p>At the moment, the platform is a crowd favorite used by <a href=\"https:\/\/trends.builtwith.com\/cms\/Squarespace\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">over 7 million live websites<\/a>.

Ease of use (A tie)<\/h3>\r\n<p>Since many people have been wondering whether Shopify versus Squarespace is easy to use, our team decided to investigate this aspect in our comparison. Below is a quick summary of what we found.<\/p>\r\n<h4>Shopify user experience<\/h4>\r\n<p>From our experience, setting up an online store with Shopify is incredibly easy. Once you create your account and click &#8220;Free trial&#8221;, the platform only asks you a few questions about your store. Fill in these details, and the store is ready to go.<\/p>\r\n<p>As you enter the dashboard, you will see a menu on the left side that links to all Shopify's essential features (e.g., customers, products, orders, etc).

Then, <a href=\"https:\/\/domains.squarespace.com\/domain-search\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">click here<\/a> to search for and purchase a domain at an average price of $20 to $87 a year.<\/p>\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_78147\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-78147\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-78147\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/2-ease-of-use-squaarespace.webp\" alt=\"squarespace-ease-of-use\" width=\"1000\" height=\"511\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/2-ease-of-use-squaarespace.webp 1000w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/2-ease-of-use-squaarespace-300x153.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/2-ease-of-use-squaarespace-768x392.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-78147\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Choose a domain name and theme for your Squarespace store, then add new products<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<p>After that, the rest is simple: add your content or products. As mentioned earlier, Squarespace lets you sell both physical and digital products (or even subscription services if you choose the Commerce Advanced Plan). Setting product prices or managing inventory is also a breeze.<\/p>\r\n<div class=\"table4\">\r\n<p><strong>The Verdict<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>Both platforms promise to cater to beginners, and so far, their features have supported their own claims very well. As a result, I\u2019d call this round a close tie.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<h3>3. Backup & Storage (Squarespace wins)<\/h3>\r\n<p>When emergencies or unexpected issues come up, it's important to have a backup of your store. We've tested backing up our own trial stores on both Squarespace vs Shopify &#8211; and here's what we discovered:<\/p>\r\n<h4>Shopify backup<\/h4>\r\n<p>Although the backup process on Shopify is not as straightforward as we hoped, it's still pretty easy to grasp. You just need to remember two big steps: First, export CSV files from your admin account (to save store information like inventory, customers, and products). Then, combine those CSV files with other data (like a copy of your theme) to duplicate the store.<\/p>\r\n<p>On the other hand, note that some elements cannot be directly duplicated this way:<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Discount codes<\/li>\r\n<li>Gift cards<\/li>\r\n<li>Custom reports<\/li>\r\n<li>Orders (You need to turn to a Shopify Partner for this)<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_78148\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-78148\" style=\"width: 1035px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-78148\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/3-backup-shopify.webp\" alt=\"shopify-backup\" width=\"1035\" height=\"564\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/3-backup-shopify.webp 1035w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/3-backup-shopify-300x163.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/3-backup-shopify-1024x558.webp 1024w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/3-backup-shopify-768x419.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1035px) 100vw, 1035px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-78148\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Some elements cannot be directly duplicated in Shopify<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<h4>Squarespace backup<\/h4>\r\n<p>In our opinion, Squarespace offers a much simpler method for backing up\/duplicating your store. You don't even need extra steps or data conversion! Simply follow these steps:<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Navigate to your Account Dashboard<\/li>\r\n<li>Go to the site you need to duplicate<\/li>\r\n<li>Click the (&#8230;) on that site<\/li>\r\n<li>Click &#8220;Duplicate Website&#8221;.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_78149\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-78149\" style=\"width: 1200px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-78149\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/3-backup-squarespace.webp\" alt=\"squarespace-backup\" width=\"1200\" height=\"747\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/3-backup-squarespace.webp 1200w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/3-backup-squarespace-300x187.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/3-backup-squarespace-1024x637.webp 1024w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/3-backup-squarespace-768x478.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-78149\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Simply click &#8216;Duplicate website' to back up your Squarespace store<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<p>Of course, there are still some limitations to consider. For example, sites with 100+ pages cannot be duplicated; the same applies to Parking Pages or websites that use the Developer Platform.<\/p>\r\n<div class=\"table4\">\r\n<p><strong>The Verdict<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>Both platforms have challenges when it comes to duplicating online stores. However, if we had to pick one, Squarespace would stand out thanks to its simpler, more user-friendly backup process.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<h3>4. Loading speed (Shopify wins)<\/h3>\r\n<p>One of the main reasons for cart abandonment is slow loading times, so assessing the loading speeds of Shopify and Squarespace is among our priorities. The good news is that both platforms are pretty similar in this area.<\/p>\r\n<h4>Shopify loading speed<\/h4>\r\n<p>Overall, most Shopify stores can load pretty fast\u2014around 0.701 seconds according to our tests\u2014though it also depends on your store's specific features and customization. To make your store even faster and more accessible, you can use third-party apps; one example is Booster, which works well even on older mobile devices.<\/p>\r\n<h4>Squarespace loading speed<\/h4>\r\n<p>Likewise, Squarespace also offers an impressive loading speed of around 0.7 seconds (at its fastest, confirmed by our tester team). Nevertheless, the slowest can reach up to 9 seconds, especially if you're not using the latest version, Squarespace 7.1.<\/p>\r\n<p>Of course, you can always add plugins to improve load times, but remember that these plugins are usually from external providers rather than from Squarespace's own extension store.<\/p>\r\n<div class=\"table4\">\r\n<p><strong>The Verdict<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>Both platforms load impressively fast, but Shopify has a slight edge with its consistent performance and numerous apps designed for speed optimization.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<h3>5. Themes & templates (Squarespace wins)<\/h3>\r\n<p>A store's outlook is just as important as the products or services it sells. So, without further ado, let's take a look at how Shopify vs. Squarespace addresses this!<\/p>\r\n<h4>Shopify themes<\/h4>\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_78150\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-78150\" style=\"width: 1658px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-78150\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/4-theme-shopify.webp\" alt=\"shopify-theme\" width=\"1658\" height=\"1172\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/4-theme-shopify.webp 1658w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/4-theme-shopify-300x212.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/4-theme-shopify-1024x724.webp 1024w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/4-theme-shopify-768x543.webp 768w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/4-theme-shopify-1536x1086.webp 1536w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/4-theme-shopify-120x86.webp 120w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1658px) 100vw, 1658px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-78150\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">There are 213 Shopify themes<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<p>We can say that Shopify doesn't disappoint in this regard. There are 213 themes in total, including 200 paid options (ranging from $140 to $450) and 13 free ones. Even better, to make it easier to choose the right theme, Shopify provides several filters:<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><strong>Industry:<\/strong> 14 different industries in total, ranging from Arts and Crafts, Clothing, and Electronics to Pet supplies<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Catalog size:<\/strong> 1 to 9, 10 to 199, or 200+ products<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Desired features<\/strong>: 16 feature options are available, such as Age verifier, Back-to-top button, Event calendar, Infinite scroll, etc.<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Recent release:<\/strong> The latest, newly released themes and designs<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Popularity:<\/strong> See what other Shopify users are choosing by filtering themes based on their popularity<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Price:<\/strong> Filtered from high to low or vice versa, so you can find something that fits your budget.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>And that's not all; customizing these themes barely takes any effort. Feel free to add manual codes if you already have some coding experience. Or, for those who prefer a simpler approach, use the drag-and-drop interface to customize the layouts, colors, and fonts to your liking.<\/p>\r\n<h4>Squarespace themes<\/h4>\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_78151\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-78151\" style=\"width: 2560px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-78151\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/5-theme-squarespace-scaled.webp\" alt=\"squarespace-theme\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1707\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/5-theme-squarespace-scaled.webp 2560w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/5-theme-squarespace-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/5-theme-squarespace-1024x683.webp 1024w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/5-theme-squarespace-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/5-theme-squarespace-1536x1024.webp 1536w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/5-theme-squarespace-2048x1365.webp 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-78151\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">All Squarespace themes are free<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<p>At first, we thought Shopify was the champion for excellent, customizable themes. But it turns out Squarespace is also a strong contender in that regard!<\/p>\r\n<p>It offers around 177 themes across 22 diverse categories, such as Food, Travel, Art, Photography, and Podcasts. And that's not all; they are further grouped into eight main types: Portfolio, Online Store, CV, Courses, etc., ensuring everyone can find what suits their needs.<\/p>\r\n<p>We do admit that the lack of filtering based on catalog size, popularity, recent release, or specific features (like Shopify) might make Squarespace a somewhat less desirable option for some. Still, Squarespace has a huge advantage that can compensate for that lack: all its themes are free.<\/p>\r\n<p>Indeed, you just need to click on the one you like, hit &#8220;Start with this design,&#8221; and begin customizing the theme right away. Squarespace also supports extra codes, like CSS, HTML, or Markdown, so feel free to experiment with your coding (if you have any experience) until you're satisfied with the results.<\/p>\r\n<p>(Are you still struggling to find the best theme?

It provides stunning themes for various styles and purposes at ZERO cost, all easily customized.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<h3>6. Apps & extensions (Shopify wins)<\/h3>\r\n<p>Although both platforms offer strong customization options (as discussed above), many merchants seek ways to make their stores stand out even more. That's where third-party apps and extensions come in! Our research reveals that Squarespace vs Shopify handle this matter in different ways.<\/p>\r\n<h4>Shopify apps<\/h4>\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_78152\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-78152\" style=\"width: 1620px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-78152\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/6-app-shopify.webp\" alt=\"shopify-app\" width=\"1620\" height=\"680\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/6-app-shopify.webp 1620w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/6-app-shopify-300x126.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/6-app-shopify-1024x430.webp 1024w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/6-app-shopify-768x322.webp 768w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/6-app-shopify-1536x645.webp 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1620px) 100vw, 1620px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-78152\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Shopify app store has +8000 apps<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<p>It's not exaggerating to say that the <a href=\"https:\/\/shopify.pxf.io\/55Q1qn\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Shopify App Store<\/a> is a huge goldmine for your eCommerce business. With over 8,000 top-rated and thoroughly tested apps (at about $20\/month on average), it covers nearly every aspect of running an online store, from sales channels and selling products to shop design.<\/p>\r\n<p>And if you're afraid you cannot navigate such a vast selection, rest assured. The store dashboard features two main sections: &#8220;Popular with Merchants&#8221; and &#8220;Trends for this Month&#8221;, highlighting the most popular and widely used apps at the moment. As a result, even fresh beginners can stay current with the most useful and trendy tools without overwhelming themselves.<\/p>\r\n<p>(Don\u2019t know which apps to use? Check out <a href=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/best-shopify-apps\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">15+ best Shopify apps<\/a> 2024!)<\/p>\r\n<h4>Squarespace apps<\/h4>\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_78153\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-78153\" style=\"width: 1327px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-78153\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/6-app-squarespace.webp\" alt=\"squarespace-app\" width=\"1327\" height=\"547\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/6-app-squarespace.webp 1327w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/6-app-squarespace-300x124.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/6-app-squarespace-1024x422.webp 1024w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/6-app-squarespace-768x317.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1327px) 100vw, 1327px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-78153\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">There are only 44 Squarespace extensions<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<p>When exploring Squarespace's extension store, we found that it offers only 44 extensions. There's no filtering or separate sections for trending apps like Shopify, either, though such designs might not be as necessary given Squarespace's much smaller collection.<\/p>\r\n<p>On the plus side, the modest number of extensions in Squarespace's store makes it easier for beginners to browse and choose what they need without getting lost. Better yet, many of these extensions are either free or start at $0.00. This means you can connect the extension without any upfront costs, only paying for higher plans or extra features if desired.<\/p>\r\n<div class=\"table4\">\r\n<p><strong>The Verdict<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>With over 8,000 extensions compared to Squarespace's 44, Shopify clearly has a massive advantage. Nevertheless, some beginners might prefer Squarespace's smaller selection since it is easier to navigate.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<h3>7. eCommerce features (Shopify wins)\u00a0<\/h3>\r\n<p>Needless to say, the key to a successful eCommerce store is to make the most of its eCommerce features. After trying out both Shopify vs Squarespace, we have come to some eye-opening conclusions:<\/p>\r\n<h4>a. Content import & export<\/h4>\r\n<p>According to our research, Squarespace allows you to import items through CSV files or import tools if you subscribe to the Business or Commerce plan. Meanwhile, for the export, Squarespace will transfer all of your content into the WordPress format to give you more convenience when migrating among platforms.<\/p>\r\n<p>Nevertheless, these exports are limited to no more than 10,000 items (physical products and services only), and each product is limited to 3 variants in colors, sizes, or materials.<\/p>\r\n<p>On the contrary, Shopify offers a far greater level of flexibility for both product import and export, with zero restrictions to the product types. Better yet, you can perform both tasks quickly using CSV files.<\/p>\r\n<h4>b. Inventory management<\/h4>\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_78154\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-78154\" style=\"width: 1999px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-78154\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/7-inventory-shopify.webp\" alt=\"shopify-inventory-management\" width=\"1999\" height=\"920\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/7-inventory-shopify.webp 1999w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/7-inventory-shopify-300x138.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/7-inventory-shopify-1024x471.webp 1024w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/7-inventory-shopify-768x353.webp 768w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/7-inventory-shopify-1536x707.webp 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1999px) 100vw, 1999px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-78154\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Managing your inventory on Shopify is a breeze<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<p>As of this writing, Shopify users have access to cutting-edge tools for managing their stock. Thanks to the robust tracking system for incoming and committed stocks, products may be transferred between storage facilities and retail outlets with ease. Even better, the dashboard allows you to effortlessly check an order's progress and make changes before shipping.<\/p>\r\n<p>And we're pleased to find most of these features in Squarespace as well. Like Shopify, Squarespace also offers unlimited products, the ability to add single or bulk items, in-house revenue reports, and direct email alerts for low stock. If you need more advanced features, simply browse and choose from third-party plugins.<\/p>\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_78155\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-78155\" style=\"width: 1440px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-78155\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/7-inventory-squarespace.webp\" alt=\"squarespace-inventory-management\" width=\"1440\" height=\"900\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/7-inventory-squarespace.webp 1440w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/7-inventory-squarespace-300x188.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/7-inventory-squarespace-1024x640.webp 1024w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/7-inventory-squarespace-768x480.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-78155\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Inventory management on Squarespace is also fairly straightforward<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<h4>c. Product types<\/h4>\r\n<p>Regarding product types, there's no limit to Squarespace: it lets you sell both physical and digital products with ease across all pricing plans (except Personal). You don't have to install third-party apps to configure download links for these digital items.<\/p>\r\n<p>The same applies to Shopify, as both physical and digital product listings are a breeze on this platform. However, since Shopify outperforms Squarespace in file upload limit (5 GB compared to 300 MB), we can say Shopify still has a far bigger advantage in this round.<\/p>\r\n<h4>d. Product images<\/h4>\r\n<p>Although Shopify has handled product details pretty well so far, product images are where it falls a bit short. Let's say your images do not all have the same aspect ratio; in that case, Shopify may randomly resize them to fit the grid. Unless you install a third-party app, this might translate to a rather unflattering visual experience.<\/p>\r\n<p>On the other hand, Squarespace offers a much superior solution here. Once you decide on an appropriate ratio, all the product photos will be automatically cropped to fit it. Furthermore, a &#8220;focus point&#8221; can be designated for each product image in Squarespace to give off a smoother, more professional storefront.<\/p>\r\n<h4>e. Payment options<\/h4>\r\n<p>Just a quick glance at Squarespace reveals its rather limited options for payment processors, as the platform only supports PayPal, Square, and Stripe. Our infographic below has summarized the features of each processor:<\/p>\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_78139\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-78139\" style=\"width: 1150px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-78139\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/image14.webp\" alt=\"squarespace-payment-options\" width=\"1150\" height=\"1999\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/image14.webp 1150w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/image14-173x300.webp 173w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/image14-589x1024.webp 589w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/image14-768x1335.webp 768w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/image14-884x1536.webp 884w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1150px) 100vw, 1150px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-78139\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">All Squarespace's payment options<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<p>Meanwhile, Shopify supports all the major payment gateways \u2014 PayPal, Amazon Pay, Square, Shop Pay, and even cryptocurrency \u2014 along with 100+ options. Not to mention, when using its built-in Shopify Payments, your store won't be charged any extra transaction fees at all.<\/p>\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_78156\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-78156\" style=\"width: 1600px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-78156\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/8-payment-shopify.webp\" alt=\"shopify-payments\" width=\"1600\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/8-payment-shopify.webp 1600w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/8-payment-shopify-300x94.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/8-payment-shopify-1024x320.webp 1024w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/8-payment-shopify-768x240.webp 768w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/8-payment-shopify-1536x480.webp 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-78156\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Shopify supports all the major payment gateways<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<h4>f. Shipping system<\/h4>\r\n<p>Since Squarespace is not exactly eCommerce-centric, the platform still has a long way to go in terms of shipping. Nevertheless, it does offer some considerable perks, such as using USP to calculate carrier shipping rates or allowing you to amend shipping costs depending on the country you\u2019re shipping to.<\/p>\r\n<p>On the other hand, Shopify is more inclusive when it comes to shipping. Everything you need, from printable shipping labels to built-in integration with shipping services like NHL or UPS, is available in Shopify Shipping to ensure the customer experience is as smooth as possible.<\/p>\r\n<div class=\"table4\">\r\n<p><strong>The Verdict<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>Shopify is primarily an eCommerce platform, so it naturally offers more specialized eCommerce tools than Squarespace. However, Squarespace still has its advantages and performs quite well in some aspects.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<h3>8. Marketing & SEO features (Shopify wins)<\/h3>\r\n<p>The next criterion in our comparison is marketing features. To help you make the best decision while choosing between Shopify vs Squarespace, we will analyze the following:<\/p>\r\n<h4>SEO<\/h4>\r\n<!-- \/wp:post-content -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:list-item \/-->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:list-item \/-->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:list-item \/--><!-- \/wp:list -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:heading {\"level\":4} --><!-- \/wp:heading -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n<p>SEO stands for Search Engine Optimization, which is the practice of increasing the quantity and quality of traffic to your website through organic search engine results.<\/p>\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:heading {\"level\":5} --><!-- \/wp:heading -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n<p>With Shopify SEO, you can effectively optimize your eCommerce website with its SEO built-in features. First of all, based on the content on your site, Shopify will automatically generate a title and description for all products and pages, as well as canonical tags and your sitemap.<\/p>\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n<p>Moreover, Shopify uses the proper name when referring to the SEO elements, which are specifically page titles, meta descriptions, and image alt text. Notably, Shopify will save you a lot of time as it will automatically generate 301 Redirects when you change your site\u2019s URLs.<\/p>\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:heading {\"level\":5} --><!-- \/wp:heading -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n<p>In comparison, Squarespace also provides users with useful SEO tools to optimize their website well for search engines. This platform also facilitates the SEO optimization process by automatically generating title tags, meta tags, and a sitemap.<\/p>\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n<p>However, unlike Shopify, in Squarespace, you will deal with features like \u201ccaptions,&#8221; \u201cdescriptions,&#8221; etc. Besides, when you change your page\u2019 URL, you will have to create the 301 redirects manually, which is quite inconvenient and time-consuming.<\/p>\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n<p>Let\u2019s take a look at the SEO features in the Shopify Squarespace comparison:<\/p>\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:image {\"align\":\"center\",\"id\":46017,\"className\":\"wp-image-46017\"} -->\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter wp-image-46017\">\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_46017\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-46017\" style=\"width: 771px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-46017\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/image22.webp\" alt=\"shopify-vs-squarespace-seo\" width=\"771\" height=\"562\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/image22.webp 771w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/image22-300x219.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/image22-768x560.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 771px) 100vw, 771px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-46017\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Shopify vs Squarespace comparison: SEO features<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n<!-- \/wp:image -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:heading {\"level\":4} -->\r\n<h4 id=\"step62\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Social media integration<\/h4>\r\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:heading {\"level\":5} -->\r\n<p>Shopify allows you to sell on 10 social media platforms, such as Facebook, Instagram, etc. This way, Shopify offers its merchants an effective tool to approach more potential customers.<\/p>\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:image {\"align\":\"center\",\"id\":46018,\"className\":\"wp-image-46018\"} -->\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter wp-image-46018\"><\/figure>\r\n<!-- \/wp:image -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n<p>Let's take a look at the table below to see how you can <a href=\"https:\/\/pagefly.io\/blogs\/shopify\/niche-ideas?ref=litextension\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">find your Shopify niche <\/a>from the integration of Shopify with some prominent sales channels:<\/p>\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:wptb\/table-block {\"id\":55917} -->\r\n<div class=\"wptb-table-container wptb-table-55917\"><div class=\"wptb-table-container-matrix\" id=\"wptb-table-id-55917\" data-wptb-version=\"1.4.10\" data-wptb-pro-status=\"false\"><table class=\"wptb-preview-table wptb-element-main-table_setting-55917 edit-active\" data-reconstraction=\"1\" style=\"border: 1px solid rgb(209, 209, 209);\" data-wptb-table-tds-sum-max-width=\"296.666668\" data-wptb-cells-width-auto-count=\"1\" data-wptb-horizontal-scroll-status=\"false\" data-wptb-extra-styles=\"LyogRW50ZXIgeW91ciBjdXN0b20gQ1NTIHJ1bGVzIGhlcmUgKi8=\" role=\"table\" data-wptb-header-background-color=\"#417505FF\" data-table-columns=\"2\"><tbody><tr class=\"wptb-row\" style=\"background-color: rgb(65, 117, 5);\"><td class=\"wptb-cell\" data-y-index=\"0\" data-x-index=\"0\" style=\"border: 1px solid rgb(209, 209, 209);

However, Shopify deserves a win. This platform offers users a wide range of reports (about 14 types), divided into different categories, such as financial reports, product analytics, sales report, or customer report.<\/p>\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_78142\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-78142\" style=\"width: 1114px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-78142\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/analytics-shopify.webp\" alt=\"shopify-analytics\" width=\"1114\" height=\"680\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/analytics-shopify.webp 1114w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/analytics-shopify-300x183.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/analytics-shopify-1024x625.webp 1024w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/analytics-shopify-768x469.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1114px) 100vw, 1114px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-78142\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Shopify Analytics and Reports for all plans<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<!-- \/wp:image -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n<p>Compared to Shopify, Squarespace Analytics only gives you basic statistics and information about your store and customers.

It can determine under what circumstances a customer should be prompted to get a reminder about their abandoned cart.<\/p>\r\n<div class=\"table4\">\r\n<p><strong>The Verdict<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>Shopify clearly wins in terms of marketing features in this comparison of Shopify vs Squarespace.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<h3>9. AI tools (Shopify wins)<\/h3>\r\n<p>Ever since ChatGPT's explosive rise to fame, AI tools have become an essential part of the workflow in every industry, including eCommerce. Let's explore how Shopify vs Squarespace integrate these features into their platforms.<\/p>\r\n<h4>Shopify AI tools<\/h4>\r\n<p>Over the past few years, Shopify has made significant progress in AI tools, though it's still expanding its built-in features.<\/p>\r\n<p>The main AI tool Shopify currently offers is Shopify Magic. Although it's just one feature, Shopify Magic is highly versatile, capable of:<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Editing and generating text<\/li>\r\n<li>Segmenting customers based on behavior<\/li>\r\n<li>Predicting customer spending<\/li>\r\n<li>Managing data and account privacy.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>Not to mention, Shopify's large app store (with over 8000 apps) also includes many AI-driven tools to improve different parts of your online store and tailor it to your needs.<\/p>\r\n<h4>Squarespace AI tools<\/h4>\r\n<p>Similarly, Squarespace incorporates Squarespace AI to help users create and edit text content. From our own experience, this AI works exceptionally well, especially when given detailed and highly descriptive prompts.<\/p>\r\n<p>Besides text generation, the platform features Squarespace Design Intelligence to speed up the website creation process. You can ensure a professional look right from the start with stunning websites that match your brand's aesthetic and preferred color palettes.<\/p>\r\n<div class=\"table4\">\r\n<p><strong>The Verdict<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>Right now, Shopify Magic leads the pack with its impressive range of features. However, Squarespace AI is also very efficient, so we can still expect it to shake things up in the future.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<h3>10. Dropshipping (Shopify wins)<\/h3>\r\n<p>Aside from product quality and prices, dropshipping services can also significantly impact the success of your business. In this regard, we observe a notable difference between Squarespace vs Shopify.<\/p>\r\n<h4>Shopify dropshipping<\/h4>\r\n<p>Given its comprehensive 8000-app store discussed above, we are not surprised that Shopify offers various dropshipping apps to boost your business performance. Feel free to choose whichever app suits you best, but a quick search from our team reveals the three most popular choices:<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><strong>Spocket<\/strong>: Including items from dropshipping suppliers in the United States, Canada, Europe, Australia, Brazil, etc.<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>DSers<\/strong>: Allowing to search, import, and edit product data from AliExpress suppliers.<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Modalyst:<\/strong> Offering print-on-demand, fulfillment, and warehousing; can be integrated with AliExpress.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h4>Squarespace dropshipping<\/h4>\r\n<p>Unlike Shopify, Squarespace presents a very modest collection of dropshipping extensions (fewer than 10). Also, even when connecting fulfillment extensions to your site, you still need to set shipping rates for dropshipping services with Squarespace.<\/p>\r\n<p>On the brighter side, however, the quality of these dropshipping extensions has received positive reviews so far. Some common options include:<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><strong>Art of Where<\/strong>: Dropshipping and design service that lets you design packaging and branded products, like t-shirts, handbags, and notebooks.<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Printful:<\/strong> Printing and shipping custom designs. Simply put, your customers can buy custom prints through your Squarespace site, while Printful is responsible for printing, packing, and shipping the orders to your customers.<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Syncee:<\/strong> Designed to help retailers pick quality products one by one or in bulk. Syncee worked with reliable suppliers in the US, EU, AUS, and other countries worldwide.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<div class=\"table4\">\r\n<p><strong>The Verdict<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>Shopify vs Squarespace both offer high-quality apps that receive excellent user reviews. Still, Shopify has a larger selection (meaning more options to choose from), so it comes out on top in this comparison.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"cta-detail\">\r\n<div>\r\n<h2 class=\"title\">Let Our Experts Handle Your Store Migration!<\/h2>\r\n<p class=\"cta-desc\">With the All-in-One Migration Service, our experts take care of everything, ensuring a seamless and stress-free migration.<\/p>\r\n<a class=\"btn-frame\" href=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/migration-services\/all-in-one-data-migration-service.html?utm_source=blog&utm_medium=display&utm_campaign=anchor_text&utm_term=aurora&utm_content=shopifyvssquarespace\">BOOK FREE CONSULTATION<\/a><\/div>\r\n<div><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-78213\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/2-08-1.png\" alt=\"All-in-One Migration Service\" \/><\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<h3>11. Selling offline \u2013 Point of sales (POS) (Shopify wins)<\/h3>\r\n<p>Running a successful store can be quite a tough challenge if you do not have a good handle on your POS (point-of-sale) system. That's why we decided to examine the POS features of both Squarespace versus Shopify and see how they stack up.<\/p>\r\n<h4>Shopify POS<\/h4>\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_78158\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-78158\" style=\"width: 2310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-78158\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/10-pos-shopify.webp\" alt=\"shopify-pos\" width=\"2310\" height=\"1000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/10-pos-shopify.webp 2310w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/10-pos-shopify-300x130.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/10-pos-shopify-1024x443.webp 1024w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/10-pos-shopify-768x332.webp 768w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/10-pos-shopify-1536x665.webp 1536w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/10-pos-shopify-2048x887.webp 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2310px) 100vw, 2310px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-78158\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Shopify POS is available on both iOS and Android<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<p>There's a reason Shopify is such a crowd favorite: its robust POS systems work on both Android and iOS and integrate easily with your Shopify account. Managing customer orders and stock levels on the go is, therefore, quite a breeze, and you can even buy compatible hardware directly from Shopify to further streamline the process.<\/p>\r\n<p>What impresses us even more is that Shopify promises unlimited POS logins across all four main plans (Basic, Shopify, Advanced, and Plus) &#8211; not to mention two specialized POS plans as follows:<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><strong>Starter Plan<\/strong> (for small operations): $5 per month<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Retail Plan<\/strong> (for established businesses): $89 per month<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h4>Squarespace POS<\/h4>\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_78159\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-78159\" style=\"width: 2500px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-78159\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/10-pos-squarespace.webp\" alt=\"squarespace-pos\" width=\"2500\" height=\"1406\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/10-pos-squarespace.webp 2500w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/10-pos-squarespace-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/10-pos-squarespace-1024x576.webp 1024w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/10-pos-squarespace-768x432.webp 768w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/10-pos-squarespace-1536x864.webp 1536w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/10-pos-squarespace-2048x1152.webp 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2500px) 100vw, 2500px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-78159\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Squarespace POS only works for iOS<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<p>Though not an eCommerce-exclusive solution, Squarespace still provides a powerful POS that lets you easily accept cash, credit cards, and mobile payments.<\/p>\r\n<p>Even better, when paired with the Squarespace app, the POS makes it easy to do everything from your mobile device &#8211; from scanning shipping labels and tracking inventory to contacting customers. You can also give special, in-person discounts to customers at checkouts or sign them up for promotion emails or upcoming in-person events.<\/p>\r\n<p>Nevertheless, there are two huge downsides. For one, the POS reader only works for iOS (iPhone or iPad). Secondly, you can only access this feature when subscribing to the Commerce Advanced and Commerce Basic plans. As of now, it's not yet available for Personal and Business users.<\/p>\r\n<div class=\"table4\">\r\n<p><strong>The Verdict<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>In our opinion, Shopify comes out on top with plenty of POS features that cater well to eCommerce needs. Squarespace, on the other hand, falls a bit short in this area, especially with its non-Commerce subscription plans.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<h3>12. Internalization (Shopify wins)\u00a0<\/h3>\r\n<p>Another primary concern for many merchants is how easy it is to set up tax rates. Not to mention, for those who want to sell internationally, whether there is support for multiple languages and currencies or not is also a crucial factor to consider. So, let's take a closer look and see if Squarespace vs Shopify addresses these important needs.<\/p>\r\n<h4>a. Tax<\/h4>\r\n<p>So far, Shopify has done quite a great job in this regard. Though tax laws change quite often, the platform eases some of your burdens by automatically updating sales tax rates based on the latest information. There's no need for manual updates, which both reduces errors and saves you time.<\/p>\r\n<p>Better yet, if standard rules do not cover certain unique tax situations, Shopify allows you to set up tax overrides or customize settings as needed in those cases.<\/p>\r\n<p>Likewise, with Squarespace, you can simplify your sales tax calculations with its TaxJar extension; it automatically determines the correct sales tax during checkout based on your customer's billing or shipping address.<\/p>\r\n<p>However, there's a huge drawback: this feature is only available for U.S. transactions (unlike Shopify, which also supports automated tax calculations for several countries outside the U.S). Hence, Shopify is a far more versatile option for businesses in this comparison.<\/p>\r\n<h4>b. Currency<\/h4>\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_78161\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-78161\" style=\"width: 2160px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-78161 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/11-mutli-currency-shopify-e1725179010545.webp\" alt=\"shopify-multi-currency\" width=\"2160\" height=\"737\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/11-mutli-currency-shopify-e1725179010545.webp 2160w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/11-mutli-currency-shopify-e1725179010545-300x102.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/11-mutli-currency-shopify-e1725179010545-1024x349.webp 1024w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/11-mutli-currency-shopify-e1725179010545-768x262.webp 768w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/11-mutli-currency-shopify-e1725179010545-1536x524.webp 1536w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/11-mutli-currency-shopify-e1725179010545-2048x699.webp 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2160px) 100vw, 2160px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-78161\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Shopify's multi-currency feature is one of its highlights<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<p>It's safe to say Shopify's multi-currency feature is a real asset for online stores aiming for global expansion. The platform allows you to sell in various currencies and even introduces a localized experience where your shoppers can see product prices in their local currency. Better yet, you can consider installing the Geolocation app to add a country selector to the storefront.<\/p>\r\n<p>Sure, you need to use Shopify Payments settings to activate this multi-currency functionality. But Shopify is still a far better choice than Squarespace, as the latter doesn't support multi-currency at all. And even if your country uses two currencies, your Squarespace store is still restricted to just one at a time, which must be linked to your bank account through a preferred payment gateway.<\/p>\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_78160\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-78160\" style=\"width: 1280px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-78160\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/11-multi-currency-squarespace.webp\" alt=\"squarespace-multi-currency\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/11-multi-currency-squarespace.webp 1280w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/11-multi-currency-squarespace-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/11-multi-currency-squarespace-1024x576.webp 1024w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/11-multi-currency-squarespace-768x432.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-78160\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Squarespace doesn't support multi-currency<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<h4>c. Language<\/h4>\r\n<p>For those who want to reach a global audience, Shopify easily stands out. It doesn't matter which subscription plan you choose (Basic, Plus, or anything in between); Shopify allows you to activate multiple languages directly from your Shopify admin. You can even create distinct URLs for each translated store version, and Shopify will automatically display the appropriate language when customers click on those links.<\/p>\r\n<p>On the contrary, Squarespace doesn't offer built-in language translation at all; instead, it relies on third-party integrations like Weglot for translation services.<\/p>\r\n<p>While Weglot does work pretty decently, its clunky design and language limitations (especially when using the free-trial version) still make the entire experience quite cumbersome. Hence, we can say Shopify once again has a significant advantage over Squarespace in this round.<\/p>\r\n<div class=\"table4\">\r\n<p><strong>The Verdict<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>Shopify clearly stands out as the better option compared to Squarespace in nearly every way in this round. This big victory totally proves why it's considered one of the top eCommerce platforms for global expansion.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<h3>13. Support (Shopify wins)<\/h3>\r\n<p>Since both Squarespace vs Shopify claim to be beginner-friendly (and have proven so), the next logical step is to evaluate their customer support. In general, we can say we are quite pleased with what we have experienced on both platforms.<\/p>\r\n<h4>Shopify support<\/h4>\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_78162\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-78162\" style=\"width: 1848px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-78162\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/12-support-shopify.webp\" alt=\"shopify-support\" width=\"1848\" height=\"970\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/12-support-shopify.webp 1848w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/12-support-shopify-300x157.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/12-support-shopify-1024x537.webp 1024w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/12-support-shopify-768x403.webp 768w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/12-support-shopify-1536x806.webp 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1848px) 100vw, 1848px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-78162\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Shopify's 24\/7 chat support is available on all four plans<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<p>Here's another aspect where Shopify doesn't disappoint. One of its best features is its 24\/7 chat support (available on all four plans), which lets you reach out to a support agent at any time. Even better, for those who subscribe to the highest plan \u2014 Shopify Plus \u2014 there will be an extra priority 24\/7 phone support for even more convenience.<\/p>\r\n<p>Direct support aside, Shopify offers a comprehensive Help Center and Community Forum, where you can find additional guides or seek advice from other Shopify users.<\/p>\r\n<h4>Squarespace support<\/h4>\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_78163\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-78163\" style=\"width: 1087px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-78163\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/12-support-squarespace.webp\" alt=\"squarespace-support\" width=\"1087\" height=\"559\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/12-support-squarespace.webp 1087w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/12-support-squarespace-300x154.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/12-support-squarespace-1024x527.webp 1024w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/12-support-squarespace-768x395.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1087px) 100vw, 1087px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-78163\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Squarespace doesn't offer phone support for any of its plans<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<p>Our team is pleased with Squarespace's solid support options, including both email and live chat support. There is also a Help Center and Community Forum where you can look through all the commonly asked questions and issues to solve the issue on your own (if possible).<\/p>\r\n<p>Nevertheless, remember that its live chat support isn't 24\/7; the service is only available from 4 a.m. to 8 p.m. ET (Monday through Friday). Not to mention, Squarespace doesn't offer phone support for any of its plans, either, which can be a downside if you prefer talking to a support agent directly.<\/p>\r\n<div class=\"table4\">\r\n<p><strong>The Verdict<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>Both Shopify vs Squarespace are excellent options, but Shopify's 24\/7 customer support gives it a slight edge here.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<h3>14. Security (Squarespace wins)<\/h3>\r\n<p>Given the roaring success of the eCommerce industry, it's unsurprising that hackers and thieves often target online stores to steal both money and customer data. To protect your business, it's important to review the security measures that Shopify and Squarespace offer.<\/p>\r\n<h4>Shopify security<\/h4>\r\n<p>Since its release, Shopify has been well-known for its strong security features. The platform includes a free 256-bit SSL certificate for every online Shopify website, which encrypts all data between users and the store to help protect it against threats and hackers. Furthermore, there are also extra security measures like passkeys and two-step authentication to prevent unauthorized account access.<\/p>\r\n<p>Yet, despite these security measures, Shopify faced criticism in 2024 due to 2 significant customer data leaks, which affected 200,000+ stores and raised public concerns about the platform's security reliability.<\/p>\r\n<h4>Squarespace security<\/h4>\r\n<p>Like Shopify, Squarespace provides excellent security features, including two-factor authentication to prevent unauthorized access. It also automatically protects all correctly added domains with free SSL certificates to ensure secure connections and guard against data theft.<\/p>\r\n<p>Although there have admittedly been some hacking attempts on stores that migrated to Squarespace from other platforms, we haven't observed any major data leaks otherwise. Hence, some people consider Squarespace a safer option for their eCommerce businesses.<\/p>\r\n<div class=\"table4\">\r\n<p><strong>The Verdict<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>Both Squarespace and Shopify use similar security measures to protect their websites and accounts. However, Squarespace has earned more public trust recently, while Shopify still needs to recover from two significant 2024 data leaks.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<h3>15. Exclusive content for your members (Squarespace wins)<\/h3>\r\n<p>Finally, our team reviewed the option to add member-only content \u2014 a crucial feature that, unfortunately, not all eCommerce platforms provide. Are Squarespace vs Shopify any different? Let's take a look:<\/p>\r\n<h4>Shopify\u2019s exclusive content<\/h4>\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_78164\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-78164\" style=\"width: 1280px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-78164\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/13-exclusive-shopify.webp\" alt=\"shopify-exclusive-content\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/13-exclusive-shopify.webp 1280w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/13-exclusive-shopify-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/13-exclusive-shopify-1024x576.webp 1024w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/13-exclusive-shopify-768x432.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-78164\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">You need a certain degree of coding experience or third-party apps here<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<p>So far, we are quite satisfied with Shopify's excellent flexibility here; you just need to access the store's theme code, create a new template, and then use Liquid code to restrict access to the members. Feel free to test-run everything before launching to ensure it works how you like.<\/p>\r\n<p>However, on the downside, this approach requires a certain degree of coding experience, which is clearly not something all beginners have. Hence, another approach is to use third-party apps supported on Shopify's App Store.<\/p>\r\n<h4>Squarespace\u2019s exclusive content<\/h4>\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_78165\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-78165\" style=\"width: 1424px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-78165\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/13-exclusive-squarespace.webp\" alt=\"squarespace-exclusive-content\" width=\"1424\" height=\"839\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/13-exclusive-squarespace.webp 1424w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/13-exclusive-squarespace-300x177.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/13-exclusive-squarespace-1024x603.webp 1024w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/13-exclusive-squarespace-768x452.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1424px) 100vw, 1424px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-78165\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Squarespace offers a built-in feature for this<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<p>Unlike Shopify, Squarespace offers a far simpler content creation process; you don't even need any coding knowledge or third-party apps here.<\/p>\r\n<p>Simply navigate to the Pages Panel, go to Navigation, and click the &#8220;+&#8221; next to Member Sites to create a new member site! Other customization settings are also available on the platform, so you will be able to set up everything in just a few minutes before adding new content.<\/p>\r\n<div class=\"table4\">\r\n<p><strong>The Verdict<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>Both platforms offer the option to add member-exclusive content. Nevertheless, Squarespace takes the lead this time thanks to its much more beginner-friendly customization options.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<p>Once you\u2019ve weighed the strengths of Square and Shopify, setting up your store properly becomes the real priority. A clear checklist can save you time and prevent launch-day mistakes.<\/p>\r\n<getresponse-form form-id=\"93272646-627f-4ffb-a3ff-3c2e3cd889dd\" e=\"1\"><\/getresponse-form>\r\n<hr \/>\r\n<h2>Squarespace vs Shopify: FAQs<\/h2>\r\n<div id=\"rank-math-rich-snippet-wrapper\"><div id=\"rank-math-faq\" class=\"rank-math-block\">\n<div class=\"rank-math-list \">\n<div id=\"faq-1\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">Should I switch from Squarespace to Shopify?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Yes, if you're running a growing eCommerce business and want top-notch selling features for your store.
