How to Purchase WIX Studio Plan - Beginner's Guide

If you're looking to purchase a WIX Studio plan for your website but aren’t sure where to begin, you’re in the right place! This beginner's guide will take you through the entire purchasing process step by step, helping you choose the perfect plan for your business.

Step 1: Access Your WIX Studio Account

Log in to your WIX Studio account to get started.

Step 2: Select The Website You Want to Upgrade

Select the specific website you wish to upgrade by hovering over the chosen website and then clicking on Select Site.

Step 3: Navigate Dashboard to Upgrade

After selecting your website, navigate to Home from the left menu on your dashboard.

In the Home section, at the top, click on Compare Plans.

Alternatively, you can click on Upgrade in the header of the dashboard to access the pricing plans.

Step 4: Purchase Your WIX Studio Plan

Clicking on Compare Plans will open a new tab displaying all available pricing options.

We recommend reviewing all plans carefully. Here’s a summary of our top recommendations:

Basic Plan: This is the most affordable option, ideal for those needing a standard website. It covers all essential features, making it a great starting point.

Standard Plan: Choose this plan if you intend to accept online payments or integrate e-commerce functionalities. If you have specific apps installed on your WIX Studio website to process payments, this plan is essential to ensure they work correctly.

Once you’ve identified the plan that best suits your organization’s needs, select it to proceed.

Step 5: Select Your Billing Cycle

Next, you’ll need to choose a billing cycle for your plan.

WIX offers both monthly and annual billing options. We strongly recommend opting for a yearly or two-year plan, as this ensures you receive the best value for your investment and the lowest monthly cost.

After selecting your billing cycle, click Continue to Checkout.

Step 6: Complete Your Purchase

Finally, fill in your payment details and invoice information, then click Submit Purchase to finalize your order.

Please note that clicking Submit Purchase may redirect you to a page offering a new custom domain. All WIX Studio plans include a free domain for one year. If you do not already have a custom domain, this is a great opportunity to take advantage of the promotion.

If you already own a custom domain, you can disregard this page.

Working with a Web Design Agency

If you’re collaborating with a web design agency, they can handle the custom domain connection for you. Now that your website has a WIX Studio plan, the agency can successfully link your domain to your site.

Connecting Your Custom Domain

If you want to connect your custom domain to your website:

1. Close the domain purchase page to return to your website dashboard. You may need to refresh the dashboard first.

2. Navigate to Settings in the left menu.

3. Select Domains.

4. Enter your custom domain and click Let’s Go.

5. When prompted with a message indicating that the domain is taken, select Yes, I own this domain.

6. Follow the remaining steps to complete the domain connection.
