Is Nightly cheaper than Squarespace?

No. Squarespace Basic is $19 a month billed yearly, and Nightly's Launch is $25 a month (or $255 a year). Nightly costs more because the website is made for you. Seeing yours is free for 14 days, so you can judge before you pay.

Can I keep my domain if I move from Squarespace?

Your domain comes with you. If you bought it through Squarespace, it's still yours: on Launch or Grow, change a few settings in Squarespace and your Nightly website shows on it. Your project page says which settings, checks them and emails you when it's live. Your old pages aren't copied across: Nightly makes a new website from your answers about your business.

Does Nightly have an online store or booking?

Not yet. Customers booking and paying online are being built now, and come with the plan at no extra charge. If you need a store today, Squarespace has one on every plan.
