private member areas

Site URL: http://gstudio.pt

Hi there!

At the moment, none of the Commerce plans offers any options for private members areas. I wanted to have a private access area, with user/password for each client for online training purposes, but unfortunately, Squarespace still has no options for that.

Is there anyone using a third party solution integrated in their Squarespace site?

Thanks in advance for your time 🙂

Hello world!

I have the same type of use case in mind.  Ideally, a user could buy a membership which would grant them access to a "members-only" section of the site.  This seems like a logical extension of the Customer Account feature, but I haven't found anything that unites Customer Accounts with password protected pages - either natively within Squarespace or as a third party integration.

Any suggestions are appreciated!

There is another e-commerce solution that provides this.

I am only replying because I am also interested in finding a similar solution. 

I would also like customers to have the ability to upload files in their account for me to access.

@goncalo.catarino Memberstack can help you add user accounts and payments to your Squarespace site. Here's a tutorial that might help as well 🙂 https://help.memberstack.com/en/articles/3992066-squarespace-tutorial

Hope that helps!

@Naitik Memberstack looks great! I have been using Memberspace for clients for years, could you give us a rundown on why Memberstack might be better?

@Naitik thanks for the input 🙂 Already had a look at Memberstack and it does sound interesting! Just like @dnmddy I'm also curious about what does Memberstack offer in comparison to other membership solutions?

For sure! We recognize that people are wanting to customize and build memberships in a way that suits their own specific use-case. We're building Memberstack to offer as much membership & payment functionality as we can across site-builders. Our goal is to match your UI as closely as possible so that your end-users/customers don't actually see or feel that you're using a 3rd party tool — we want it to look and feel just as good as the rest of your site.

We're new to the space, but have helped our customers make over $3.5M in about a year from launch with thousands of happy users. Just wanted to keep this brief here but I'm more than happy to elaborate via DMs if you have specific questions. 😄

Let me know if you decide to give it a try — happy to set you up with some free months to hear your feedback. :)

@Naitik it would be super helpful if you could elaborate on the specifics of the platform you're selling, and why a long-time user of another similar (competitor) platform may want to switch to yours
