Wix pricing
Wix publishes 5 tiers. Below is each one, what it adds over the tier beneath it, and where the ladder stops being worth climbing for most people.
As of 1 September 2026, Wix pricing is free, then $17/month across 5 published tiers. Figures are the vendor's list prices as recorded on this page's last check; the vendor's site is the final word.

Wix plans, side by side
Every published tier in ascending order of price, with the number of features each one lists. An absence here means the record does not itemise it, not that the tier lacks it.
| Plan | Price | Features listed | Step up from the tier below |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | Free | 4 | Entry tier |
| Light | $17/month | 5 | +$17/month, 5 more features |
| Core | $29/month | 4 | +$12/month, 4 more features |
| Business | $39/month | 4 | +$10/month, 4 more features |
| Business Elite | $159/month | 4 | +$120/month, 4 more features |
What each tier adds
The set difference between each tier's feature list and the one beneath it. Where a tier lists nothing new, the vendor has either stopped repeating the inherited list or the tier raises limits rather than adding capability, the record does not distinguish the two, so this page does not either.

People bring Wix in for a restaurant that needs a menu, online ordering and reservations live before the weekend without a developer, a tradesperson or consultant who wants a credible five-page brochure site and a contact form without ongoing maintenance, a photographer or designer publishing a portfolio where visual control matters more than markup quality, an agency using wix studio to deliver low-budget client sites on a fixed fee with client-editable content areas. If that is not the job you are buying for, the alternatives to Wix are worth a look before you commit to a tier.
How that compares in Web Development
Too few web development tools in this directory publish a starting price to quote a meaningful median, so the table below is a like-for-like list rather than a ranking.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Wix (this page) | Free, then $17/month | Per site per month | - | |
| Chakra UI | Free | Open source, no licence fee | - | vs Wix |

Ratings are aggregated from third-party sources and imported with each catalogue entry, they are not reviews hosted on Softwr. How each figure is used is set out on the Wix badges page.
Before you pay for Wix
Three things this page cannot tell you, and all three change the bill. The record carries a price and a billing period but not the unit - per-seat and flat-rate pricing are indistinguishable in this data, so a five-person team may be looking at five times the figure above. It carries no annual rate, so any discount for paying yearly is not something this page can quote. And it carries no trial length.
What it can tell you is the shape of the ladder: 5 tiers between Free and $159/month, with the jump itemised above. Because there is a free tier, the cheapest way to answer the rest is to use it before paying anything.
Wix runs on web, ios, android, and is published by Wix.com Ltd. of Tel Aviv, Israel. The full record is on the Wix review, and the rest of the category is under best web development tools.

- Light costs $17/month against Free, and adds custom domain, no wix ads, 2gb storage, 2 collaborators.

In practice it is brought in for a restaurant that needs a menu, online ordering and reservations live before the weekend without a developer, a tradesperson or consultant who wants a credible five-page brochure site and a contact form without ongoing maintenance, a photographer or designer publishing a portfolio where visual control matters more than markup quality.
- Does Wix charge per user?
- The record carries a price and a billing period for each of its 5 tiers, but not the unit that price is charged in. Per-seat and flat-rate billing look identical in this data, so check the vendor's page before budgeting for a team.
- Are these Wix prices current?
- They are what the catalogue entry holds, refreshed when the entry is. Vendors change pricing without notice and nobody at Softwr re-verifies each tier by hand, so treat this as a structured summary and the vendor's own pricing page as the authority.
- What should I compare Wix against before paying?
- The closest web development tools in this directory are Chakra UI, Rollup, Turbopack, Radix UI. Each has a side-by-side comparison with Wix covering price, platforms and features.
