Wix too expensive? What it costs and how to leave

Updated November 2026 ยท Christopher, Dreamtech

Wix's paid plans now run from $19 a month (Light) to $159 (Business Elite) on yearly billing. Wix has no export button, but a simple site can still be copied page by page onto free hosting, and your domain can be transferred out.

Wix raised Light from $17 to $19 in August 2026. Prices change often, so check your own renewal, or put your numbers into the savings calculator.

Can you export a Wix site?

Not with a button. Wix doesn't offer a full site export. What you can do is copy the live pages (text, images, fonts and layout) into files you own, then host those files anywhere. Things built on Wix's own features, such as Wix Stores, bookings and member areas, don't come along.

How leaving Wix works

  1. Copy the public pages of your site into files and check them side by side with the original.
  2. Put the copy on free hosting (Cloudflare Pages) and test it at a temporary address.
  3. Point your domain at the new site and set up email if it was on Wix.
  4. Transfer the domain out of Wix once everything works, then cancel your Wix plan.

When to stay on Wix

If the site is mostly a shop, a booking system or a member area, those need Wix to run. Keep them there, and still move your domain so it's in your name at a fair price.

Questions

Will my Wix site look the same after the move?

It's a copy of your live pages, so words, images, fonts and layout match. Effects that rely on Wix's scripts, like some animations or sliders, may need small fixes or a simpler version.

Can I move my domain away from Wix?

Yes, unless it's inside the 60-day lock after registration or a previous transfer. Wix gives you a transfer code once it's unlocked.

What about my Wix contact form?

Forms that send through Wix stop when the plan ends. The form is rebuilt to send to your email through a form service or a small function on your new hosting.
