Framer Pricing Explained [Which Plan Do You Actually Need in 2026?]

Framer looks free — until you're ready to launch

Here's what most people get wrong about Framer pricing: they assume free means ready-to-publish. It doesn't.

Framer's free plan lets you build as many websites as you want. But the moment you want to connect a custom domain, remove the 'Made in Framer' badge, or add a CMS — you'll need a paid plan. And if you pick the wrong tier, you'll either overpay for features you don't use or hit a wall mid-project.

At TweakDesigns, we've built 200+ websites over 9 years across Framer, Webflow, and Wix Studio. We get this question constantly: which Framer plan should I get? This guide gives you a direct answer based on real project experience — no fluff.

The four Framer pricing plans at a glance

Framer currently offers four plans: Free, Basic, Pro, and Scale. Here's an honest summary of each.

One important thing to note: Framer pricing is per site, not per workspace. So if you're managing multiple client websites, each published site needs its own plan. This is the hidden cost most comparison videos skip.

Free plan: great for testing, not for launching

The free plan is genuinely useful — you can prototype and build full websites without paying anything. But it comes with real limitations for live use:

• Your site runs on a framer.site subdomain (no custom domain)

• The 'Made in Framer' badge appears on every page

• No CMS access

• Limited bandwidth and visitor counts

Who it's for: Designers learning Framer, developers prototyping, or anyone who just wants to experiment before committing.

Who it's NOT for: Any client-facing or business website.

Basic plan: the right fit for simple sites

The Basic plan is ideal for personal websites, portfolios, landing pages, and single-page business sites. You get:

• Custom domain connection

• Up to 30 static pages

• 1 CMS collection (with up to 1,000 items)

• Password-protected pages

• Analytics history

The key limitation: one CMS collection means if you want a blog with categories, tags, and authors, you're already out of room. You'd need separate collections for each — which requires Pro.

Also worth noting: Basic does not include site redirects or a staging environment. If you're migrating from another platform and need 301 redirects to protect your SEO rankings, you'll need to step up to Pro.

Our take: Basic is a clean fit for one-page sites, CVs, and freelance portfolios. For anything with a blog or more than 2–3 content types, go straight to Pro.

Pro plan: the right plan for most business websites

In three years of building Framer sites at TweakDesigns, the Pro plan covers the overwhelming majority of our client projects. Here's why:

• Up to 150 static pages

• 10 CMS collections (2,500 items each)

• Site redirects — essential for migrations from WordPress, Webflow, or Squarespace

• Staging environment — lets you test changes before pushing them live

• Static file uploads

• Monthly or annual billing

The roles and permissions feature (to add editors, content writers, or designers to your site) is available as a paid add-on on the Pro plan — roughly ₹700/month per additional editor at current rates, though pricing varies by region.

If your client wants to log in and update their own blog content, this is the add-on that makes it possible.

Our take: If you're building a 5–15 page business website with a blog, Pro is the plan. The site redirects and staging environment alone justify the upgrade from Basic for any serious project.

Scale plan: for large sites and enterprises

The Scale plan is Framer's enterprise tier and it's annual-only (no monthly option). It's built for:

• Large websites with up to 300 static pages and 20 CMS collections

• 10,000 CMS items

• Premium CDN and high bandwidth

• Priority support

• Events, funnels, and custom regions

Honestly? In three years of Framer builds, we've rarely recommended Scale to clients. It's designed for large-scale platforms or teams managing huge content libraries. Most business websites — even complex ones — sit comfortably on Pro.

Our take: Start on Pro. If you hit the 150-page or 10-collection ceiling, then consider Scale. Don't pay for enterprise infrastructure before you need it.

Framer add-ons: what costs extra on top of your plan

On top of any paid plan, Framer offers three add-ons that are commonly misunderstood as plan features:

Locales (multi-language)

If your website needs to serve content in multiple languages, Framer's Locales add-on handles translation and regional URL routing. This is separate from your plan and priced per locale.

Convert (A/B testing and funnels)

Convert lets you run A/B tests, set up conversion funnels, and track how specific interactions (like button clicks) lead to outcomes. Useful for marketing-heavy sites. Available as an add-on on Pro and Scale.

Advanced hosting

Advanced hosting covers multi-site management, custom HTTP headers, and other infrastructure-level controls. Relevant for agencies managing multiple properties under one setup.

Important: these are add-ons, not upgrades. You pay for them on top of your existing plan cost. Factor them into your total budget when scoping a project.

Which Framer plan should you get? (4 real scenarios)

You're a freelancer building your own portfolio

Go with Basic. You need a custom domain, a clean presentation, and maybe a case studies page. One CMS collection is enough. You don't need redirects or staging.

You're a founder launching a business website with a blog

Go with Pro. You'll want multiple CMS collections (blog posts, team members, case studies), site redirects if you're coming from another platform, and the staging environment to review changes before going live.

You're an agency handing off a site to a client

Go with Pro and add the roles add-on. Your client can log in to update their blog content without touching the design. Transfer the site to their account at launch — they take on the plan cost from there, and your Framer affiliate link can get them a discount.

You're testing Framer before committing

Start on the free plan. Build the full site, get client sign-off, then activate Basic or Pro at launch. You only pay when the site goes live.

The hidden costs nobody talks about

A few things that catch people off guard:

• Custom domain: the cost of the domain itself is separate from Framer pricing. You buy the domain from a registrar (Namecheap, GoDaddy, etc.) and connect it to Framer.

• Per-site pricing: if you manage 5 client sites, you need 5 separate Framer plans. Each published site is billed independently.

• Add-ons stack: Locales + Convert + roles can add significantly to your monthly cost. Map these out before quoting a project.

• Annual vs monthly: annual billing saves roughly 20–30% depending on the plan. For long-running client sites, annual is almost always the right call.

The bottom line

Framer is genuinely one of the most capable website builders available today — the design freedom, native CMS, built-in SEO tools, and third-party integrations put it ahead of Squarespace and Wix for most professional use cases. The pricing is fair once you understand what each tier actually covers.

For most business websites: Free to build, Pro to launch. That's the pattern we follow at TweakDesigns, and it's served 200+ projects well.

If you're still unsure which plan fits your project — or if you'd rather have an experienced team handle the build — we're happy to take a look.
