the free postage (shipping i assume) will disappear as soon as your customer puts in the discount. because your free postage offer kicks in when your customer pays $100. if they put in a voucher that takes $100 off, then they will have to pay whatever shipping rate you set for orders under $100. if you know beforehand which of your customers are using the government-issued voucher, you can give them a a free shipping code they can use one-time together with their voucher (set for any order instead of a minimum of $100).

Stripe and Paypal are the only payment processors that can be used on Squarespace Commerce. If you want to use another payment processor, you'll have to manually create buttons and transactions are processed outside of Squarespace and therefore will not be reflected on Commerce -> Orders

it sure would be nice if a shipping option is un-selected by default, right? this would force customers to really pay attention to shipping, especially if there are several options. it's ironic that the commerce part of Squarespace has so many limitations that those limitations can significantly affect the success of one's Squarespace store.

i don't use mailchimp so i don't have an answer to your question BUT i would change the screenshot you originally posted and swap it with one with the email addresses blurred, as displaying them on a public forum violates their privacy. plus there are many scammers/spammers that troll this forum on a daily basis and they can easily copy those email addresses and start spamming your customers.

there are TONS of problems and feature requests here that have gone unresolved or not addressed for years. it's very frustrating that Squarespace is so slow or not responsive at all in addressing many crucial e-commerce issues.

you need to open a support ticket and submit these feature requests. Squarespace does not monitor (nor do they take an accounting of) feature requests here.

Compared to Shopify, Squarespace is lightweight in terms of e-commerce features. So no, there's no insurance feature on Squarespace.

the checkout page is locked. you cannot modify it (e.g., include add-on items).

yeah, you will often see people here (including me sometimes) say to create a ticket with customer care about the features you want added -- because that's what SQSP says is the "official" way to make requests. however, they will tell you they don't guarantee your requests will be implemented. to be honest, i think it's all lip service because i've yet to see them really listen to their customers, especially to their existing/paying ones. you'll find many requests dating back YEARS and they've been ignored. i've never come across a more unresponsive company than Squarespace.

i'm wondering -- did Squarespace not beta test the Members Area before they released it in the wild? it's obviously lacking a number of basic features one would expect from a membership area.

Squarespace's subscription feature is SEVERELY lacking. quite frankly, i don't know how they could even continue offering this feature when it so obviously incomplete...and continually ignore their paying customers' requests after having identified where the feature falls short. it's unbelievable how unresponsive they are and incredibly slow to implement features that their customers have been begging for for years. i have been using MoonClerk to manage my subscriptions - super easy! and if you have existing subscribers whose recurring price you want to change (like lower), you would simply need to find their name/email address under the Plan tab and click on edit. no need to make them cancel their current subscriptions.

you need to change your default country to Sweden. to do this, go to Commerce -> Checkout and then scroll down to DEFAULT COUNTRY IN ADDRESS FIELDS and choose Sweden. after that it should show shipping costs in your country.

you need to log this as a feature request by creating a ticket. Squarespace doesn't monitor this forum, per their rules, for feature requests.

what plan are you on?

go to Commerce and at the far right, beside Export, click on VIEW GIFT CARDS and yes, the code is entered in the "discount" box at checkout OR at the Payment step -- there will be a spot there to enter the gift card code:

good luck with that. per forum rules, they don't monitor feature requests here. nor do they really listen to customers, especially when it comes to features that are so very needed to make their Commerce plans work as expected (or at least comparable to others like Shopify). years and years of requests have largely gone ignored if you pore through posts here. their subscription feature is pathetic because as you said, it's pretty unusable the way they have it now. it was one of the things i liked initially when i was moving my store, but i ended up using MoonClerk for my subscriptions after going through their help/support pages and i realized managing (or the lack of the ability to manage) subscriptions through Squarespace was going to be problematic down the line.

Yes, you will have to drag and drop each product if you want them to appear alphabetically...that or buy an expensive plugin. Honestly, it's ridiculous for Squarespace to not have this sorting functionality when each shop page can now hold up to 10,000 products. I mean what half-twit coder leaves out an important function like that?!?!?!?!

I don't think this is possible. Some things you can do: (a) use the announcement bar and mention customers can order a maximum of 4 free product samples at a time. I'm assuming you at least charge for shipping. (b) include in each product description a note that customers can order only 4 free product samples at a time. (c) in the Additional Information section during checkout, mention that only up to 4 product samples can be ordered at a time. Ask them to remove any other product samples over the limit. (d) customize the confirmation email your customers receive to repeat the info: only 4 free products per order. If, after making it obvious on your site/store the 4-free-product-limit-per-order customers still put in more than 4 in their cart and check out, you can put in the confirmation email that only the first 4 free product samples will be sent to them. There really is no way to set limits to the number of products customers are allowed to add to their carts, especially when it comes to free product samples.

Your best bet is to log a ticket or chat with Squarespace customer service and ask them directly about this. People here in the forums can't give you a definitive answer.

you would need to create separate products if you want to display them separately instead of using the variant feature. white bodysuit = 1 product; black bodysuit = 1 product; orange bodysuit = 1 product; purple bodysuit = product. you can duplicate a product and simply change the title and modify the description to reflect the color. add product thumbnail too that corresponds to the color of bodysuit.

always thought it very strange that Squarespace has the policy of not tracking feature requests in this forum when in fact, it's a hotbed of requests because it's where existing paying customers, and potential customers go. how hard is it to put one or two of their people here to monitor feature requests and put together a list to review on a bi-monthly or quarterly basis? many features have been requested (begged for) for years and they have not been addressed at all, it's ridiculous. and the recently launched Members Area -- i can't help but think is a half-baked product. i look at what they charge for it and heck, i'd never pay to use it after seeing here in the forums what many of those who signed up to use it are encountering issues after issues. i mean...GEEZ!

this is a gross limitation of Squarespace. you can't even mark an order as partially fulfilled, something you're able to do in other e-commerce platforms. i really wish Squarespace will get their act together and make their Commerce plans more up to par with other e-commerce platforms. i read the other day they just raised $600 million -- wish they'd put even a small fraction of that into fixing a lot of what's lacking in the Commerce plans: manual order creation, partial fulfillment, ability to delete customer accounts ourselves, manual gift card creation, better discounting, pick-up/cash on delivery option, bundling, item-specific tax, fixing the subscription feature, and a host of other essential features that so many have been asking for here on the forums but have gone largely ignored for years despite logging feature requests.

not going to do much by asking Squarespace here on the forums for a feature that is crucial/essential to running a business. you need to log in a ticket and make the request there so they see it. they have mentioned before they do not really monitor the forums for feature requests.

Would the OP's products be deemed an event or service? If so, they wouldn't be able to use Afterpay because services and ticket sales and events are restricted businesses and therefore cannot use Afterpay through Stripe. See https://stripe.com/afterpay-clearpay/legal - item #7

you need to click "Save & Publish". in the background you have the product hidden. make it public first and then the link should work.
