What Is Custom Code in Squarespace?
Custom code in Squarespace refers to CSS, JavaScript, and HTML snippets you add to modify your website's appearance, behavior, and functionality beyond the platform's built-in options. Whether you're adjusting typography, creating interactive elements, or integrating third-party tools, custom code unlocks limitless possibilities for your Squarespace site.

Add business-specific features
Custom JS/CSS or third-party embeds let you add booking flows, custom checkout fields, CRM/webhook integrations, advanced analytics, or tailored UX that match your business processes.
-

Improve conversions by improving UX
Custom code that improves navigation, provides visual enhancements, lazy-loads noncritical assets, defers third-party scripts, or implements a simplified mobile checkout can increase bookings & sales.
-

Enhance performance and lead generation
Custom code for Squarespace can improve SEO and visibility as well. Performance experts note that a one-second delay in page load time can reduce conversions by about 7%.
Why your Squarespace site needs custom code
While Squarespace offers beautiful templates and user-friendly tools, every business has unique needs that off-the-shelf solutions can't meet. Custom code development unlocks capabilities that give you a competitive edge:
Beyond Template Limitations
Your business is unique—your website should be too. Custom code removes the constraints of standard Squarespace templates, allowing for distinctive designs and functionality that align perfectly with your brand identity and business goals.
Enhanced User Experience
From advanced filtering systems for your products to interactive calculators that engage visitors, custom code creates memorable experiences that convert browsers into customers. Smooth animations, dynamic content loading, and intuitive navigation keep visitors on your site longer.
By adding custom CSS/JavaScript or code injections, business owners can tailor design and functionality beyond the out-of-the-box template.
When optimized, custom code can enhance performance and lead generation.
