Bank statement charge
What is the SQSP* INV charge on my card?
Who charged you
Squarespace websites, domains, Google Workspace email and Acuity Scheduling
SQSP is short for Squarespace, the website builder and domain company. The charge is usually a renewal of a Squarespace website plan, a domain, Google Workspace email, Email Campaigns or Acuity Scheduling, and the nine-digit number after INV is the Squarespace invoice number.

Find out what it was
- 1
Open the full statement, not just the banking app list: apps often cut the line short, and the nine-digit number after INV is the invoice number you need.
- 2
Search your inbox and spam for Squarespace and for your site or domain name. Squarespace does not email invoices, but it does send a reminder before an annual plan renews.
- 3
If you have a Squarespace login, open Billing and then Invoices for each site, and the billing page of each domain, and match the date and amount.
- 4
Think of any domain you once registered with Google Domains, any Google Workspace email for a club or small business, and any Acuity booking page: all of them can bill as SQSP.
- 5
If there are two SQSP lines on one day with different amounts, look for two subscriptions, such as a website and a domain.

Not in any of your accounts? If nobody in your household made it, someone else may have used your card details. Your card issuer can stop the card, so the charges do not continue.
Why does it say “SQSP* INV”?
Squarespace bills its own plans as SQSP or as Squarespace, Inc, followed by INV and a nine-digit invoice number. When two or more Squarespace subscriptions renew at the same time, they go on one invoice and one charge, so a single SQSP*INV line can cover a website and a domain together.
Outside the United States the seller is Squarespace Ireland Limited, but Squarespace describes the same SQSP and Squarespace, Inc names for its charges. A purchase from an online shop that runs on Squarespace is different: that charge carries the shop's own name, not SQSP.
Why you might see this charge
- A Squarespace website plan renewed. Annual plans get a reminder email about 15 days before; monthly plans renew without one.
- A domain renewed, including a domain first registered with Google Domains, which Squarespace now looks after.
- Google Workspace email bought through Squarespace; each extra user adds to the amount.
- An Acuity Scheduling, Email Campaigns or digital products plan, each renewing on its own billing cycle.
- A check of $0 or $1 when a card is added or updated, which usually drops off or is credited back within 3 to 5 business days.
- A website or domain that a designer, a club or a relative set up and still bills to your card.
Is SQSP* INV legit?
Yes. Squarespace is a real website and domain company, and SQSP or Squarespace, Inc is how it bills its own plans, most of which renew on their own until someone turns renewal off. A surprise charge is usually a forgotten renewal, a domain that came over from Google Domains, or two subscriptions added together.
Squarespace says it never emails or posts invoices, so be wary of any message that sends an invoice or asks you to pay through a link. Check the charge against your full statement and your own account instead.

Questions about SQSP* INV
What is SQSP INV on my bank statement?
It is a Squarespace bill. SQSP is Squarespace's short billing name, INV stands for invoice, and the nine digits after it are the invoice number, which matches an invoice in the Squarespace account that was charged.
What is the SQSP website or domain charge?
It is the renewal of a Squarespace website plan or of a domain registered with Squarespace. Annual plans send a reminder email about 15 days before they renew; monthly plans renew without one. A website and a domain renewing at the same time can show as one combined line.
What is SQSP Acuity on my card?
Acuity Scheduling, the online booking tool, is part of Squarespace, and Acuity plans billed through Squarespace renew monthly or yearly under its name. A business pays for the plan to run its booking page, so the line usually belongs to someone who runs one, or to a card they used.
Why do I have two SQSP charges, or a charge of $1?
Two amounts usually mean two subscriptions, for example a website and a domain, or several Google Workspace users. A $0 or $1 charge is a check that the card works, and a first purchase can show as two identical charges; these checks are normally cancelled or credited back within 3 to 5 business days.
What if I did not agree to an SQSP charge?
