Does it cost extra to add a website widget?
Website widgets are an add-on to your base Kajabi plan fee.
The website widget Free tier allows you to add 1 website widget to 1 page in your Kajabi account free of any extra cost (i.e. if you have multiple sites in your account, you’ll only be able to add a widget to 1 page of 1 site for free).
Adding more than 1 website widget in your Kajabi account will be subject to an additional cost outside of your base plan fee. Multiple paid tier levels are available for you to choose from so you can pick the add-on plan that best fits your business:
