How do I transfer my domain to Square Online Store?

tigerstore55 — Fri, 17 Apr 2020 18:29:00 GMT

I’m looking to move my website from Shopify to Square. I have my domain registration with Shopify though, how do I move that over?

Hey @tigerstore55-

If you wish to connect your existing custom domain registration from your old online stores you can do so with our Personal Plan. If your previous online store is connected to a custom domain prior to trying the new Square Online Store, the Personal Plan fee will be waived for a year starting at the date you publish your new site. After the first year, the Personal Plan will cost $6 per month per site.

To begin the transfer domain process, click this link and go to the transfer domain option.

If your previous online stores are connected to a custom domain, like wxyz.com, you’ll need to update the DNS settings for each custom domain to point to your new store. Please follow these instructions to update the settings for each custom domain. Your new online stores will not be live until you redirect your custom domains.

I hope this helps! ✨

When I try to update my DNS records with 199.34.228.164 it says "Something Went Wrong while saving changes". Is there a fix for this? Thank you

How EXACTLY do I direct my squarespace domain to square.

bishopsbling — Tue, 26 May 2020 02:23:44 GMT

I was set up on Squarespace to find out they are not part of Square. Foolish me. But now my custom domain in over there. I have seemed help but I can't mentally get it sorted. I want my domain for my square store.

Can someone help me figure this out?

It has been months where my square store is in limbo and useless. It is showing my custom domain but nothing but errors everywhere.

I need someone that can be exact on what I need to do.

How do you update DNS with Weebly and GoDaddy.com

MandyJ — Wed, 03 Jun 2020 11:30:27 GMT

I finished creating my website and I keep getting "Update your DNS settings to use your custom domain for this site. Update DNS Settings"

I have tried to update the two sites and even deleted the domain name and tried again. But when I publish it all I get is a home page of a free account that I deleted. I sat on hold for 45 minutes and the rep said that she would email the help guide but never received the email. How do I get the two IP addresses to match. Please help
