Studio Collaborator benefit - rolling out in the US
Starting earlier this week, Wix Studio creators in the US can exclusively enjoy up to 5 collaborator seats on free sites, providing more freedom and flexibility during site creation.
As a reminder, here’s all you need to know:
- This update applies to free sites built on both Wix and Studio
- To get access to this benefit, you must be the site’s original owner
- Upgraded sites that exceed their plan’s seat limit, can keep existing collaborators, but won’t be able to invite more as long as the quota is exceeded. (Similar to free plan quota benefits Studio creators receive for Wix Forms and Media Storage)
- Finally - we’re adding a new progress bar in Roles & Permissions to quickly view a site’s available seats at a glance
These updates are already available to creators in Australia and New Zealand, and we’ll keep you updated as these updates become available to other regions
