Telegram for Squarespace Creatives
Squarespace is where photographers, designers, and architects showcase their work. When international clients want to hire you, they reach out on Telegram. Boei adds a Telegram widget to your Squarespace site that matches your design, lets clients share project briefs up to 2GB, and keeps conversations going after they leave your portfolio.
Trusted by 17,220 websites
Matches any Squarespace template
Squarespace users are different from typical website builders. They are photographers, graphic designers, architects, filmmakers, and boutique shop owners. Their websites are portfolios first, lead generators second. And their clients are often international.
A photographer in Berlin gets inquiries from clients in Moscow. An architect in London works with developers in Dubai. A fashion designer in Paris sells to buyers in Sao Paulo. All of these clients prefer Telegram.
Squarespace's contact form collects a name and email. Then you wait for the client to check their inbox. On Telegram, the conversation starts instantly and continues across devices. Clients can send reference images, mood boards, floor plans, and project briefs up to 2GB without the file size limits of email.
The other big advantage: Telegram uses usernames instead of phone numbers. International clients who would hesitate to share their phone number on a contact form will happily message @yourstudio on Telegram. The barrier is lower. You get more inquiries.
Creative work involves large files. Reference images, brand guidelines, mockups, contracts, video clips. Email caps out at 25MB. Telegram handles 2GB. When a client contacts you through the Telegram widget on your Squarespace portfolio, they can send everything you need in one conversation. No Dropbox links, no WeTransfer, no "my email bounced because the file was too big."
You spent hours perfecting your Squarespace template. The last thing you want is an ugly chat bubble ruining the aesthetic. Boei's widget customizes to match your exact design: colors, position, icon style, and entrance animations. On a minimalist Squarespace portfolio, it sits quietly in the corner. On a bold brand site, it matches your accent color. Your visitors see a cohesive design, not a third-party widget bolted on.
Paste one snippet in Code Injection. Works with every template
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.
The Boei widget will now appear on all pages of your Squarespace site. Congrats, you are done!

A wedding photographer in Amsterdam gets inquiries from Russian and Middle Eastern clients who plan destination weddings. Clients browse the portfolio on Squarespace, click the Telegram widget, and send reference photos of the style they want. The conversation stays on Telegram for months as details evolve.
An interior designer showcases work on Squarespace. A client in Dubai sends floor plans (50MB+ files) via Telegram. AI answers initial questions about rates and availability. The designer follows up with mood boards and quotes, all in the same Telegram thread.
An artist sells limited edition prints on Squarespace Commerce. Buyers from Eastern Europe want to ask about framing, shipping costs, and customs duties. Telegram answers these questions in the buyer's language. The print sells. Without Telegram, that buyer would have bounced.
