The Development Sites section provides Kajabi Partners with access to Kajabi sites specifically designed for testing, building, and showcasing client work. These sites are perfect for experimenting with Kajabi features, building templates, or demoing potential client solutions. They are not live sites until they are transferred to the Hero owner from the partner.

FAQs
Q: Can I upgrade a Development Site to a full Kajabi plan?
A: As a Kajabi Partner/Agency, you can transfer ownership to:
Clients who do not have a Kajabi account, however, they will have to create an account before they can accept the site transfer
Clients with a Kajabi account, but they will need to be within their plan limits
When a site transfer is initiated by a Kajabi Partner, the future owner of the site (aka your client) will receive an email with instructions to accept the transfer.
Q: Can I use these sites to run my own business or sell products?
A: No, Development Sites are strictly for demo and development purposes. Selling products is not permitted on those sites. Development sites can be/are built to be sold and transferred to clients.
