Before you begin:
Make sure you've added Wix Video and set up at least one channel.
Step 1 | Add and set up Wix Pricing Plans
Once you've added Wix Video and created your channel, you can add Wix Pricing Plans to your site and create your plans.
Note:
To add a paywall to your site, you must connect a payment provider. Wix offers a variety of providers for you to choose from.
To add Wix Pricing Plans:
- Go to Pricing Plans in the Wix App Market.
- Click Add to Site.

- Set up and create your plans.
Tip:
Wix Pricing Plans also integrates with other apps including Wix Bookings, Wix Blog, and Wix Events. A monetization plan can cover multiple products, for example, if you have a yoga site, a plan can include yoga classes with Wix Bookings, and yoga videos from Wix Video.
Step 2 | Connect a pricing plan to your video channel
Next, it's time to connect a pricing plan to your video channel. During this process you can either create a new pricing plan, or connect an existing pricing plan.
