Prices are in USD, before applicable tax. Annual plans are paid upfront and cost 11 monthly payments. The Assist introductory offer applies to monthly billing only: $19.99 per month for the first 3 months, then $49.99 per month. Website build costs are separate from ongoing service plans. Existing customer agreements remain unchanged.
Unused routine update requests do not roll over. A routine update covers a short set of changes to one existing page, such as replacing supplied text or images, updating business information, or adding an announcement. *Bender Managed includes fair-use routine updates, completed one at a time with normal turnaround. Additional approved work is billed at $85/hour. New pages, significant redesigns, original copywriting, custom functionality, ecommerce work, integrations, and dedicated SEO campaigns are scoped separately before work begins.
Bender Commerce starts at $249/month with scope agreed separately. Ecommerce is not included in the website plans above. Contact us to confirm the right plan and availability before payment.
