Carrd vs Wix
Priced at four sizes on whatever each one charges by, the features checked against both pricing pages.
Take Carrd if you want the cheapest real site, the least to learn and a free plan you can publish on. Take Wix if you want site, shop, booking and email in one, a mature platform with a large ecosystem and a free plan you can publish on. Carrd is cheaper at every size we price.
What each one actually costs
The real monthly figure at four sizes with the add-ons each platform forces on you included, from the same engine the shortlist quiz uses. The cheaper of the two is marked on every row.
| Carrd | Wix | Difference | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 sites | $0 | $17 | $17 |
| 2 sites | $0 | $34 | $34 |
| 5 sites | $1.58 | $85 | $83.42 |
| 10 sites | $1.58 | $170 | $168.42 |
What is actually different
- Wix lists building the site with AI, a blog, appointment booking, selling products online, a free domain for the first year, a members area and SEO tools where Carrd does not, which is their own wording rather than something we verified.
No verdict from me yet
I have not used Carrd or Wix on camera, so everything on this page comes from their own pricing pages, re-read weekly, and nothing from my own experience. When I review either, it will be here.
