Squarespace is known for its clean, professional templates — which is why so many service businesses, especially photographers, creatives, and event companies, use it. But Squarespace's built-in form blocks are designed for collecting information, not calculating prices. Here's how to add instant quoting capability.

The Gap in Squarespace

Squarespace forms can collect names, emails, and dropdown selections. But they can't calculate a price based on the customer's inputs. If a customer selects "5 hours" and "Saturday" and enters a postcode 30 miles away, a Squarespace form can't work out that the total is £530 + £45 mileage + £50 Saturday surcharge = £625 + VAT. You'd have to do that manually and email them back.

The Solution

Use a dedicated quoting platform alongside Squarespace. You set up your services, pricing rules, and form fields in the quoting tool. Then embed the form on your Squarespace site (or link to it). The customer gets an instant price. You get a tracked quote in your dashboard.

Embedding on Squarespace

  1. Set up your quoting form on Valora
  2. In Squarespace, edit the page where you want the form
  3. Add a "Code" block (available on Business plan and above)
  4. Paste your iframe embed code
  5. Save and publish

Note: Squarespace's Personal plan doesn't support code injection. You'll need the Business plan or higher to embed external content. Alternatively, use a button that links to your hosted form URL — this works on all Squarespace plans.

The Result

Your Squarespace site continues to look beautiful and handle your brand presentation. The embedded quote form handles the pricing engine. Customers get a seamless experience — fill in their details, see their price, and can accept the quote all from one flow. Behind the scenes, you get a full quoting and booking dashboard to manage everything.

It's the best of both worlds: Squarespace's design quality with a proper, dynamic quoting system built for service businesses.
