Squarespace design freedom, without the ceiling
Better ecommerce depth, agency tooling, and an all-in-one growth stack — for teams that outgrew template limits.

Cliux matches that design quality while adding deeper ecommerce, native marketing automation, multi-client agency management, and white-label capabilities. Teams switching from Squarespace gain more control over checkout, client billing, and long-term platform economics.
