How do I add a lead generation form or calculator to Squarespace?
Learn how to add a lead generation form or calculator to Squarespace, choose submission storage, embed third-party tools, and export leads.
Add a Squarespace Form block for simple lead capture, or embed a third-party calculator using a Code block. Choose where submissions go before publishing, then test the form or calculator on desktop and mobile.
How do I add a lead generation form or calculator to Squarespace?
For a basic lead form, edit the page, select Add block (+) → Form, configure its fields and post-submit message, then choose a storage option and save. Squarespace’s Form block guide walks through these steps. If you only need an email signup, add a Newsletter block instead.
For a calculator, create it with a third-party service or custom code, then place its embed code in a Squarespace Code block. Squarespace supports JavaScript and iframe code blocks on Core, Plus, Advanced, and some legacy plans; check your plan before building around an embed. Its custom-code guide notes that code-based customizations are advanced and outside Squarespace support. As of November 14, 2026, its Form block documentation describes collecting submissions, not calculating results.
Which Squarespace blocks or built-in tools can create forms or calculators?
Use a Form block for questions beyond a simple email signup, and a Newsletter block for collecting subscriber information. A Form block can collect lead details and send submissions to connected storage; a Newsletter block is designed for mailing-list signups. Squarespace also offers promotional pop-ups for signups, but these are not a calculator tool. (support.squarespace.com)
| Option | Best fit | Trade-off |
|---|---|---|
| Squarespace Form block | Contact or lead forms built in the page editor. | Use an external tool if you need a calculator or more specialized interactions. (support.squarespace.com) |
| Squarespace Newsletter block | Email signup with built-in subscriber storage and mailing-list options. | Use a Form block when you need to collect more than subscriber details. (support.squarespace.com) |
| Jotform or Typeform embed | A form hosted by another service and displayed on a Squarespace page. | Setup and submission management happen partly outside Squarespace; embeds require a compatible Code block. (jotform.com) |
| Outgrow embed | An interactive calculator or quiz embedded on the page. | It adds a separate service to manage; follow Outgrow’s Squarespace embed instructions |
What third-party integrations or plugins work with Squarespace?
Jotform and Typeform provide instructions for embedding their forms on Squarespace pages; Outgrow provides instructions for embedding its experiences. Paste the provider’s embed code into a Code block, then check the live page because embeds can display differently from the editor preview. (jotform.com)
For lead routing, Squarespace’s form storage options include Zapier, which can pass a form submission to connected apps. Use it when you need an automated handoff to a CRM or another workflow; a native Form block may be simpler if email or a spreadsheet is enough. (support.squarespace.com)
How do I capture, store, and export form submissions and leads?
Choose at least one storage option in the form’s settings before publishing. Squarespace can send form submissions to an email address, save eligible submissions in Contacts, or connect a form to Google Drive, Mailchimp, or Zapier; newsletter subscribers can also be stored in Contacts.

To download entries, open the Form block’s settings and select Export Submissions to download a CSV. Squarespace says submissions from forms with a required email field remain stored until you delete the contact or submission; forms without a required email field retain submissions for 30 days. Uploaded files are not included in the CSV, so download those separately from their links. (support.squarespace.com)
