Tranfering a domain from Squarespace to Cloudflare includes the following steps:
- Go to "Account Home" and click "Add Domain". This should be one you already own.
- Select the free plan
- Double check that the records are all present, then click "Continue to Activation"
- This gives you two nameservers to update in Squarespace
- In Squarespace, go to the Domain Nameservers. It will ask to disable some DNSSEC security thing. Click yes.
- Once connected, you need to make sure to Configure the SSL/TLS to Full (strict) encryption mode. If not, you will not have a working URL.
- Now you should be able to start the actual transfer process
- Go to Squarespace and under the "Overview" page there will be a button at the bottom of the page that says "Request Transfer Code." Click this, then click "Unlock." It might take some time to get the email with the transfer code.
