Best Squarespace Messenger Widget
Your Squarespace portfolio gets traffic from Facebook and Instagram. Visitors browse your work, love what they see, and then... fill out a contact form? That's friction. Boei adds a Messenger button to your Squarespace site. Visitors tap it, the conversation opens in Messenger, and you respond from your phone. No Code Injection expertise needed. Just paste one snippet.

Works on all Squarespace templates
Most Squarespace users are creative professionals: photographers, designers, architects, wedding planners, coaches. They showcase work on Squarespace because the templates are beautiful. But they get clients through Facebook. Their Facebook Page has reviews, their Instagram drives traffic, and they message clients through Messenger every day.
The disconnect? Squarespace doesn't connect to any of that. A visitor finds your Squarespace portfolio through a Facebook post, clicks through, loves your work, and hits... a contact form. Now they have to type their email, wait for a reply, and hope you respond quickly. Most won't bother.
Boei adds Messenger through Squarespace's Code Injection feature. Settings, Advanced, Code Injection, paste the snippet in Footer. Every portfolio page, service page, and blog post gets a Messenger button. Works on Squarespace 7.0 and 7.1. Full Squarespace setup guide.
A couple browses your photography portfolio on Squarespace. They love your wedding work and want to know if you're available in June. Instead of hunting for a contact form, they tap the Messenger button. AI checks your site content and responds with your availability and pricing info. You get a notification on your phone with their question and the portfolio page they viewed. You reply between shoots, right in Messenger.
Many Squarespace users run their calendar through Acuity Scheduling (now Squarespace Scheduling). The problem? Visitors book directly without context. They don't know your process or what to expect. With Boei, visitors chat through Messenger first. AI explains your services, answers questions, and when they're ready, points them to your Acuity booking page. Better qualified appointments.
Three widget themes, custom colors, and dark mode. The Messenger button matches your Squarespace template's aesthetic. No ugly third-party branding.
Photographers, designers, and artists showcase work on Squarespace. Messenger lets potential clients react to specific pieces and ask about commissions, prints, or bookings.
AI qualifies visitors and answers service questions. When they're ready, it sends them to your Acuity booking link. Better appointments, fewer tire-kickers.
You're a busy creative. You can't sit at a computer monitoring chat. Messenger notifications come to your phone. Reply between client meetings, on location, or at the studio.
Code Injection install. No template editing needed
In your Boei dashboard, open your widget and click the Install tab. Select Squarespace and copy the installation code.
Tip: The Install tab also offers a landing page link, QR code, and iframe embed.
In your Squarespace dashboard, click "Edit Site" in the top right corner.
Click "Pages" in the left menu, then click "Custom Code" and select "Code Injection".
Note: Code Injection is available on Core, Plus, Advanced, Business, Commerce Basic, and Commerce Advanced plans. Personal plans don't have this feature.
Enter your Boei code in the Footer section and press "Save" at the top left.

Wedding and event photographers get most of their leads through Facebook. A couple sees your work shared on Facebook, clicks through to your Squarespace portfolio, and wants to know if you're available. Messenger lets them ask instantly. You reply from your phone between edits. The conversation stays in Messenger, so when they're ready to book months later, the thread is still there.
Life coaches, business consultants, and therapists use Squarespace for their professional sites. Potential clients want to ask about your approach before committing to a session. Messenger feels less formal than email, which lowers the barrier. AI answers FAQ-type questions. You handle the personal ones.
Couples planning a wedding already coordinate everything in Messenger. Adding it to your Squarespace site means they can inquire about your services in the same app where they're sharing venue photos with their friends. Seamless.
Selling prints or custom artwork through Squarespace Commerce? Messenger lets collectors ask about sizes, framing, and shipping before ordering. Share close-up photos of pieces directly in the chat thread.

Paste the Boei snippet in the Footer section of Code Injection. This loads the widget after your Squarespace page content renders, keeping your site fast and your portfolio images loading first.
Photographers: 'Are you available for June weddings?' Coaches: 'What's your session rate?' Designers: 'Can I see case studies?' Match prompts to what your Squarespace visitors actually ask.
Most Squarespace creatives also have a strong Instagram presence. Add both Messenger and Instagram DM in one Boei widget. Visitors pick whichever Meta platform they prefer.
Show the Messenger widget on portfolio and services pages but hide it on your blog. Boei supports page-level display rules so the widget only appears where it makes sense.
