Changing Your Squarespace Email Campaign Billing
TL;DR:
- You can adjust your Email Campaigns billing plan and cycle anytime from your Billing panel

- Plan upgrades happen immediately, downgrades start after your current cycle ends
- You can switch between monthly and annual billing cycles
- Email Campaign subscriptions can't be transferred between sites
Managing your Squarespace Email Campaigns billing is straightforward once you know where to look. You'll need admin or billing permissions to make changes, and all the options live in your account's Billing panel.
Accessing Your Email Campaigns Billing
Head to your Billing panel through your account settings. This is where you'll find all the tools to modify your Email Campaigns subscription. Make sure you're logged in as a site owner or admin – contributors won't see these options.
Changing Your Billing Plan
Here's how to upgrade or downgrade your Email Campaigns plan:
- Open the Billing panel
- Click on 'Subscriptions' then select 'Email Campaigns'
- Next to your current plan, click 'Change'
- Pick your new plan and review the change details including any costs
- Confirm your selection
Plan upgrades give you immediate access to new features and bill you right away for the difference. Plan downgrades wait until your current cycle ends, so you keep all your current features until then.
Before confirming any changes, take a moment to review what features you'll gain or lose with the new plan. This helps avoid surprises later.
Switching Your Billing Cycle
You can change between monthly and annual billing whenever you need to:
- In the Billing panel, click 'Email Campaigns'
- Next to your current billing cycle, click 'Change'
- Select either 'Monthly' or 'Annual'
- Confirm the change
Switching to monthly billing from annual takes effect after your current annual cycle finishes. Switching to annual billing happens immediately and you'll be charged for the full year.
FAQs
Can I switch between monthly and annual billing?
Yes, you can change your billing frequency anytime through the Billing panel. Just remember the timing works differently depending on which direction you're switching.
What happens when I upgrade my plan?
Plan upgrades are immediate. You get access to new features right away and pay the prorated difference for your remaining billing period.
Can I move my Email Campaign subscription to another site?
No, Email Campaign subscriptions are permanently tied to the site where they were set up. You can't transfer them between sites.
Jargon Buster
- Prorated Charges – Adjusted costs based on how much time is left in your current billing period when you change plans
- Billing Cycle – How often you're charged (monthly or annually)
- Legacy Plans – Older subscription options no longer available to new customers but still maintained for existing users
Wrap-up
Squarespace makes it easy to adjust your Email Campaigns billing as your needs change. The key things to remember are that upgrades happen immediately while downgrades wait until your cycle ends. Always check what features you'll have with your new plan before confirming changes.
