Webflow pricing and running costs

How much does Webflow cost in 2026?

For a custom-domain website, Basic starts at $15 a month billed yearly; Premium with a CMS starts at $25 a month billed yearly. Your full budget also depends on the people editing it, enabled extras and the work needed to keep it useful.

Updated September 25, 2026. USD before tax. Annual-billing rates are monthly equivalents paid on a yearly cycle; existing accounts may have different renewal terms.

Webflow monthly and yearly pricing

Choose a plan for what the site needs to publish. A designer's fee is a separate project cost; buying a subscription does not include someone building your website. The table separates an annual commitment from a month-to-month subscription so you can compare the actual first-year payment.

Official prices checked September 25, 2026; base plans before tax and optional extras.

Premium$25 a month; $300/year$39 a month; $468 over 12 monthsA blog or other CMS content

Sources: Webflow pricing and its monthly and annual plan-change terms. Hosting is part of the Site plan; do not add another generic Webflow hosting fee. Domain registration, mailbox services and your own suppliers are separate budget items.

Team is a different buying route: $2,500 a month with an annual contract, bundling a site and Workspace. Do not add a second Site plan charge for the included site. Confirm additional sites, usage and extras with Webflow. Enterprise is quoted individually.

Do you need both a Site plan and a paid Workspace?

Not automatically. A Site plan covers a published website; a Workspace covers the environment in which people build and manage sites. A free Starter Workspace can be enough for a solo owner. A paid Workspace becomes relevant when you need its features, such as export or more advanced collaboration. Check the required roles and included access before buying additional seats.

For in-house teams, Core is $19 a month and Growth is $49 a month, both billed yearly. These are Workspace charges, not another price per published website. If one Workspace serves several sites, allocate its cost once across them. Review paid seats, guests and any client access separately rather than charging every person as a designer.

The Workspace billing guide shows where to find plan, seat and add-on invoices, plus the next bill. You need owner or admin access to review billing. Template purchases have their own invoice location.

Why is your Webflow price increasing, or different from this table?

The 2026 plan transition depends on your account and renewal. New Site plan purchases changed from May 13. Existing sites generally transition at a renewal or billable change on or after June 29, with qualifying Freelancer, Agency and legacy accounts following from November 16. Check the notification and next-bill screen for your account before treating a published rate as your next charge.

CMS and Business are being replaced by Premium. A lower base plan price can still come with a different bandwidth allowance or an add-on. Webflow's official transition examples include bills that fall, stay the same and rise. Compare the entire renewal, including credits and extras, with the same usage period. A mid-cycle charge is not necessarily your new steady monthly cost.

A Webflow annual budget you can reproduce

Use two totals: money paid to suppliers, and the value of your team's time. Mixing them can make a low subscription look expensive without showing where the money actually goes. Separating them also makes a fair comparison with WordPress or a custom website possible.

The calculation

Annual cash cost = 12 × monthly subscriptions + annual-only charges + one-time work + usage and transaction fees + applicable tax.

Total ownership cost = annual cash cost + internal hours × your chosen hourly cost.

Here is an illustrative existing marketing site with a CMS, one editor, no ecommerce and no paid Workspace. It uses the annual Premium base rate. Every other amount below is a chosen example input, not a vendor quote or a client result. There is no new website build included; the one-time work is an assumed update to an existing site. Tax is excluded so you can add your own.

InputCalculationFirst year
Premium Site plan$25 × 12$300
Starter Workspace$0$0
Assumed connected tools$20 × 12$240
Assumed annual domain renewal$24 once per year$24
Assumed one-time site update$600$600
Cash subtotal before tax$300 + $240 + $24 + $600$1,164
Assumed internal upkeep2 hours × $50 × 12$1,200
Total including internal time$1,164 + $1,200$2,364

If those inputs stay unchanged and the $600 update does not repeat, year two is $564 in supplier costs and $1,764 including internal time, before tax. That difference comes from one-time work. It is not a platform saving. An annual subscription's monthly equivalent also does not mean the cash leaves your account monthly.

Which extra Webflow costs should you check?

  • ✓
    Access: who needs design, publishing or content editing rights? Record the paid seats actually required and subtract access already included in your arrangement.
  • ✓
    Usage: check bandwidth and enabled add-ons against recent use and the next renewal. Add only tools and locales you need; do not assume every optional product is mandatory.
  • ✓
    Connected services: domain, business email, CRM, search, membership, automation and consent tools. Mark each as included, externally billed or not used.
  • ✓
    People: separate the initial design/build, occasional changes, content work and ongoing maintenance. Name who owns forms, integrations and incident response.

Forms need a specific check: Webflow documents a lifetime limit of 50 submissions on the free Starter Site plan and unlimited submissions on the other Site plans. Do not invent a paid submission-overage line. File uploads and any external routing or CRM service have their own requirements. Confirm that a test enquiry reaches its destination before cancelling a service that looks redundant. Form submission rules.

Membership needs its own line too. Webflow's User Accounts feature ended on January 29, 2026, so a members area now runs on a separate provider with its own bill; our User Accounts sunset guide covers what Webflow recommended in its place.

For ecommerce, use the Ecommerce plan that applies to your store, then separately account for Webflow transaction charges, payment processing and store apps. Do not add a marketing Site plan to the same store simply because a comparison table lists both. Work from gross eligible sales, order count and your processor statement; refunds, currencies and your contract can change the result. Check the Ecommerce documentation and your billing terms.

Run an expected-use and a higher-use version of the worksheet. Change one input at a time, such as an extra editor, a language or a bandwidth tier. You can then see the cost of that decision without attributing every increase to the platform. Keep the invoice month and renewal date alongside each entry so someone else can check your calculation.

Is Webflow worth it, or should you reduce the bill?

Webflow can be good value when its editor and managed hosting let your team publish effectively. A higher bill alone does not establish that a rebuild will be cheaper. First check unused subscriptions, role assignments and what your current plan already includes. Have the person responsible for each integration confirm what would stop working before removing it.

If the complaint is slow pages or a broken enquiry flow, investigate that implementation. Our free website audit checks public technical signals and offers a founder review; it cannot read your private Webflow invoices. For billing help, share a redacted cost breakdown with the relevant plan and renewal dates. Keep personal details and payment information out of it.

If you are comparing a move, add the rebuild, content transfer, overlapping subscriptions during launch, replacement services and maintenance over the same period. Code export is only part of that work: Webflow's export documentation identifies CMS functionality, forms and site search among the features that need replacement outside Webflow. A downloaded ZIP is not a functioning replacement for those services.

Keep the decisions separate: this page covers ongoing cost. Our Webflow migration cost guide covers a one-time move; Webflow versus a custom website compares operating requirements. If you need someone to do the work, see our Webflow optimization and migration services. A build quote and a subscription price answer different questions.

Webflow cost questions

Do I need a paid Workspace as well as a Site plan?
Not automatically. A free Starter Workspace can suit a solo site owner. A paid Workspace is relevant when its features or collaboration controls are required. Check included access and additional seats before budgeting. Team bundles a site and Workspace, so do not charge its included site twice.
Does Webflow hosting cost extra?
Hosting is included in the Site plan. Domain registration, business email, enabled extras and third-party tools can add separate charges. Use the plan and renewal shown in your own billing settings.
Why is my Webflow renewal different from the advertised price?
Your billing cycle, account transition date, usage, seats, add-ons and credits can change the amount due. Compare the next-bill summary with the plan terms for your account. A prorated charge is not necessarily your ongoing monthly rate.
Is Webflow actually free?
The free Starter plan can publish on a webflow.io address within its limits. Publishing on your own domain needs a paid Site plan. A free Workspace does not replace the Site plan needed for that custom domain.
How do I calculate Webflow cost per year?
Add twelve months of monthly charges, annual-only bills, one-time work, usage and transaction fees, and applicable tax. Keep internal hours separate, then add them if you want a full ownership-cost total. Do not count an annual bill again as twelve monthly payments.
Does Webflow maintenance include website changes?
Check the specific agreement. Platform hosting and your agency or internal maintenance work are different costs. Content edits, new pages, integration repairs and redesigns should each have an owner and an agreed scope.
