Wix pricing in Canada (2026)

Wix shows Canadian visitors prices in Canadian dollars, but the number in big type is often a first-term discount. Here is every plan at its regular price, what the sale really saves, what Wix Payments charges in Canada, and what a small business pays in a year.

Wix plans and prices in CAD

Wix has a free plan and four paid Premium plans. When we loaded wix.com/plans from Canada, prices were in CAD (if you see USD "for reference only", give the page a moment to detect your location). Wix's help centre explains that billing follows the location you upgrade from: if you move, auto-renewals stay in the old currency.

Wix's plans page shows yearly prices only. It says other billing periods are available, and the monthly-billing price appears at checkout before you pay. Every paid plan includes a free domain voucher for one year, and Wix's FAQ notes the voucher only works on a new domain bought from Wix, not one you already own.

GST/HST on a Wix bill

None of these prices include sales tax. Since July 1, 2021, foreign digital platforms have had to charge GST/HST to Canadian consumers (CRA), and the rate follows your billing address: 5% GST in Alberta, BC, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Quebec and the territories, 13% HST in Ontario, 14% in Nova Scotia and 15% in New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador and PEI (CRA rates). If your business is registered for GST/HST, how the tax on a business subscription is handled (charged and claimed back, or not charged at all) depends on your registration; ask your accountant. Wix's own plans page says the same: "Prices do not include applicable taxes, which are determined according to your billing address."

Is Wix worth it?

Wix is the easiest of the three to start on: a real free plan to try, a drag-and-drop editor, and bookings built in from Core. The catches are about leaving and changing. You can't switch the template of a site you've already built (you start a new site and copy things across), and a Wix site can't be exported or hosted elsewhere. Contacts and products export as CSV files; the design does not. Our Wix review goes through who it suits, and Wix vs Squarespace and Wix vs WordPress put the costs side by side.

When it's worth paying someone instead

Wix is built for doing it yourself, and plenty of businesses should. Paying someone makes sense when:

  • You've already built a Wix site that isn't bringing in work and you can't tell why. A second pair of eyes on the pages, speed and Google setup is cheaper than a rebuild.
  • You've outgrown Wix and need to move without losing what ranks. Because Wix sites can't be exported, a move is a rebuild plus redirects; see moving off Wix.
  • You need accessibility or Quebec French requirements handled properly, not approximately.
  • You want one person answerable for updates and changes. That is what a care plan is for.

Tell us what you have and what you need and you'll get a fixed price in CAD, or an honest "keep doing it yourself". The free website check is a quick first look at any site, Wix included.

Questions people ask

Does Wix charge in Canadian dollars?

Yes. Wix shows Canadian visitors prices in CAD and bills in the currency of the location you upgrade from. If you upgraded from another country, Wix's help centre explains you keep that currency at renewal unless you follow its workaround.

How much is Wix per year in Canada?

At regular yearly prices: $252 for Light, $396 for Core, $528 for Business and $1,980 for Business Elite, before tax. First-term sales can halve the first year on some plans; renewals are at the regular price.

Can I take payments on the cheapest Wix plan?

No. Light has no payments, store or bookings. You need Core ($33 a month on a yearly plan) or higher to take payments with Wix Payments at 2.9% + $0.30 per card payment in Canada.

Is the Wix free plan good enough for a business?

Usually not. It shows Wix branding and doesn't let you connect your own domain, which most customers notice. It is a good way to try the editor before paying.
