# What's included in each plan

> A plain breakdown of what the free plan covers and exactly what a premium upgrade unlocks.

Here's the honest breakdown of what's free and what an upgrade adds, so you can decide what (if anything) you actually need. Short version: the free plan runs a real store or website end to end; the paid plans add your own domain, a badge-free site, AI, analytics and the ad/messaging integrations.

## Free — everything to launch and run

The free plan is genuinely usable for a real business, not a crippled demo:

- Publish at a free `yourname.sitesplaced.com` address, with a small **"Powered by SitesPlaced"** badge.
- All templates, full design control, custom pages, and menu editing.
- **Stores:** **0% commission**, **unlimited products and orders**, online payments (UPI & cards), COD and WhatsApp checkout.
- **Shipping:** Shiprocket and Shipmozo integrations — push orders, get AWB numbers back, show tracking.
- **Inventory, coupons, offers and PDF invoices** for every order.
- **Up to 5 sites** per account and **500 MB** of uploaded images and files.
- The ChatGPT & Claude connector (MCP) and the store importer.
- Mobile-ready out of the box — your site works on phones automatically.

> **What's the badge?:** A small "Powered by SitesPlaced" mark in your footer (and a short suffix in your browser tab title). It's the only visible trace of the free plan — and the premium upgrade removes it.

On websites and portfolios the badge is a small floating pill in the bottom-right corner that reads **"Made using sitesplaced.com"**. On stores it's the **"Powered by SitesPlaced"** line in the footer. Either way it's the same thing: a link back to us, removed by the matching paid plan.

## Premium — the extras you can add

- **Custom domain** — connect your own `yourbrand.com` so customers never see sitesplaced.com.
- **Remove branding** — clear the footer badge and the tab-title suffix for a fully white-labelled site.
- **Premium add-ons** — extra capabilities depending on the kind of site you run.

### Growth plan (₹499/month) — the selling features for stores and gyms

- **Everything in Starter** — custom domain, branding removal, AI copy, store analytics, custom head code and Meta Pixel + Conversions API (listed below).
- **Sales boosters** — cart upsells, frequently bought together, post-purchase offers, Buy-X-Get-Y, the welcome popup and the WhatsApp bubble.
- **Product reviews** with the Judge.me import.
- **Shiprocket 1-click checkout** and **Razorpay Magic Checkout** — hosted checkouts with saved addresses and RTO scoring.
- **Gym bookings CRM** on gym sites — class and trainer booking forms, the member roster and WhatsApp renewal reminders.
- **WhatsApp Business API alerts** — order alerts to you and confirmations to customers from your own WhatsApp Business number, bring your own credentials ([details](https://sitesplaced.com/integrations/whatsapp-business-api) and [setup guide](https://sitesplaced.com/help/md/payments-and-orders/whatsapp-order-notifications.md)).
- **5 GB storage** (up from 500 MB).
- **AI Co-founder** (separate ₹1,499/month plan that includes everything here) — the four SitesPlaced Agents, a campaign planner, a creative studio for product photos, ad creatives and carousels, an SEO audit and a retargeting kit, with 1,500 AI credits a month. Growth-plan sellers in the early-access testing group keep the agents.
- A dedicated setup person for Razorpay, Shiprocket and domain setup.

### Starter plan (₹199/month) — your own name on any website or store

- **Custom domain** and **branding removal** on your website or store — see [Connect a domain](https://sitesplaced.com/help/md/custom-domains/connect-a-domain.md) and the [custom domain integration page](https://sitesplaced.com/integrations/custom-domain).
- **AI resume parsing & autofill** and **AI content generation** (AI product descriptions and store copy on a store).
- **Lead generation forms** and **custom head code** — paste Google Analytics, Clarity or any tag into your live site ([details](https://sitesplaced.com/integrations/custom-code)).
- **Store analytics** — the **Analytics** tab in your store dashboard (visits, top products, breakdowns). On the free plan this tab shows a blurred preview and an **Upgrade to Pro** button.
- **Meta Pixel + Conversions API** — your own Pixel on the storefront plus server-side Purchase events, bring your own credentials ([details](https://sitesplaced.com/integrations/meta-pixel-capi)).
- **2 GB storage**.

### Student portfolios

Student portfolios work a little differently: they unlock with a **small one-time payment** rather than a recurring subscription. Pay once and your portfolio stays unlocked.

Everything else is already free on a student portfolio — all templates, AI autofill, AI content generation and a custom domain. The ₹99 buys badge removal only, and only on student portfolio sites.

## What stays the same on every plan

- **0% commission** — paid plans don't change this. Razorpay's own gateway fee applies on online payments regardless of plan.
- **Unlimited products and orders** — the Growth plan never lowers the free store's product allowance.
- **Razorpay, COD, WhatsApp checkout, Shiprocket, Shipmozo, the store importer and the ChatGPT/Claude (MCP) connection** — all free. See the full [integrations list](https://sitesplaced.com/integrations).
- **Templates** — every template is available free. A paid plan doesn't unlock extra designs.

> **Tip:** Not sure which extras you need? Most people start completely free, share their sitesplaced.com link, and only add a custom domain once they're ready to print it on cards and packaging.

## Good to know

- Starter and Growth unlock their features on any website, store or gym; the Student unlock applies to student portfolios only. Holding the Student plan for a store changes nothing on it.
- Storage is counted across everything you upload on the account. Compress images before uploading — a 500 KB product photo looks the same as a 5 MB one on a phone.
- Site limits: free accounts can create up to 5 sites. If you hit a "Your plan allows only N sites" message when creating a new one, contact support — limits can be raised on request.
- Paid features are also enforced on the live site, not just in the editor — so the badge really disappears the moment your plan is active, and comes back when it lapses.

**Q: Is the product limit different on the free plan?**

No. Free stores get unlimited products and orders, and the Growth plan keeps that. What changes with Growth is storage (5 GB instead of 500 MB) and the premium features.

**Q: Does the free plan include Razorpay and Shiprocket?**

Yes. Razorpay (UPI, cards, net banking), cash on delivery, WhatsApp checkout, Shiprocket and Shipmozo are all on the free plan with 0% SitesPlaced commission.

**Q: Which integrations need a paid plan?**

Meta Pixel + Conversions API, custom head code and a custom domain come with Starter (and Growth). WhatsApp Business API order alerts and the hosted 1-click checkouts need Growth. Everything else in the integrations list is free.

**Q: Do I get more templates if I pay?**

No. All templates, section blocks and style variants are free. Paying unlocks a domain, badge removal, AI, analytics and integrations — not designs.
