To offer services or content as part of a pricing plan (e.g. a membership, subscription, or package), you need to first create the pricing plan.
This article will walk you through how to do just that. The plan you create will appear on your site so clients can purchase it. You can create additional plans later.
Step 1 | Name Your Pricing Plan and Add a Tagline
Start creating your plan by giving it a suitable name and adding a short tagline to describe your plan.
Plan Name: If you offer just one plan, you might want to name it something general like Gym Membership Plan. However, if you want to offer your clients a few plans, each with different membership benefits, you might select names such as Beginner, Pro and VIP to outline the benefit level.
Tagline: Optionally, you can add a short tagline about your plan, such as "Perfect for those trying yoga for the first time". Your tagline appears on your site, under the plan price.
Step 2 | Create a List of Benefits that Clients Receive
This is the place to list the benefits included in your plan so clients know exactly what they are paying for.
You can add other services now, or add them later. Additionally, you can add other benefits that aren't managed within Wix, such as "Locker Access".
The benefits you add appear at the bottom of your Pricing Plan.
- Click +Add More.
- Enter the benefit and press Enter on your keyboard.
- Repeat steps 1 and 2 to list all additional benefits.
Tips:
- Adding benefits here doesn't connect them to the plan. It only lists them on your site.
- You can reorder the benefits by dragging them into the correct order.
- The name of the service/content you were connecting is automatically added. You can edit the name.
Step 3 | Connect Other Benefits to this Pricing Plan
Here you actually connect this pricing plan to other services or content. The options available vary depending on what app you added to your site (i.e. Wix Forum, Wix Bookings).
- Wix Forum: Connect any categories in your Forum. Note that any categories you connect are automatically made private, so they are only accessible to clients who purchase the plan.
- Wix Bookings: Connect any services you created.
- Site Pages: Grant access to site pages that have Members Only status. Learn More
- Select the checkbox next to the type of service/content you want to connect to the plan (forum categories, booking services, site pages).
Note: The name of the service/content you were connecting is automatically added. - To add additional services/content to the plan:
- Click +Add Service / +Add Category.
- Select options.
- For Booking services: Select what type of pricing plan you want to create:
- Package: A package offers clients a set number of sessions (e.g. 6 classes).
- Select Limited from the Type of access drop-down.
- Use the arrows to select the number of sessions allowed with this plan.
- Membership: A membership, (e.g. a gym membership) allows clients unlimited access to plan benefits.
- Select Unlimited from the Type of access drop-down.
Step 4 | Set Plan Pricing and Duration
You have three pricing options to choose from:
- Free Plan
- One-time Payment
- Recurring Payments
Create the type of plan that best suits your business needs:
- Select an option:
- Free Plan:
- Set when the plan expires: Select an available option from the Length of Plan drop-down, or click Custom to create your own plan length.
- One-time Payment:
- Enter the plan price.
- Set when the plan expires: Select an available option from the Length of Plan drop-down, or click Custom to create your own plan length.
- Recurring Payment:
- Select how often the plan renews.
- Enter the price paid per period (e.g. $50 per month).
- Set when the plan expires (e.g. renews monthly for a year): Select an available option from the Length of Plan drop-down, or click Custom to create your own plan length.
- (Optional) Offer clients a free trial period:
- Click the Enable Free Trial toggle.
- Set when the plan expires: Select an available option from the Length of Plan drop-down, or click Custom to create your own plan length.
Step 5 | (Optional) Display Your Plans's Policies
Here you can inform your customers about any terms & conditions that apply to this plan. If none apply, leave it blank.
The information you enter here appears on the plan's checkout screen.
Step 6 | Save Your Plan and Finish Creating Your Service/Content
Click Create to save your changes. This creates your pricing plan and returns you to where you started.
- Bookings: Finish creating your Wix Bookings service and click Save Service.
- Forum: Save changes to the Forum category.
