The tools’ mission is to basically empower users with the ability to automate business processes and also grow their sales without writing any code.
Ascend by Wix: Plans and Pricing
Ascend is not included in your Wix website subscription.
So consequently, to use the premium features, you will still need to upgrade Ascend separately.
The good news, though, is that you can still do a lot with the free features of Ascend without needing to pay extra. Also, you can use Ascend even without having a premium Wix website.
To remove the Ascend branding on user-facing features like Wix Chat, you’ll also need to upgrade Ascend.
Wix offers 3 Ascend plans:
Firstly Basic, with a cost of €10/month
Secondly Professional, with a cost of €24/month
Finally Unlimited, with a cost of €24/month
