WooCommerce product designer pricing: Cmsmart plans

Applies to Cmsmart Product Designer (NBDesigner) 2.17.0 · Updated October 2026. Reflects the annual-billing pricing structure that went live on cmsmart.net on October 11, 2026.

In short

  • Cmsmart now sells four nested annual plans — Premium, Fullstore, B2B and Marketplace — each billed once a year at twelve months for the price of ten.
  • Every tier is a free download from your dashboard; a licence key unlocks it, and the same key covers your root domain plus its subdomains, with staging free.
  • Picking a plan takes a few minutes: compare the tiers, start the 30-day free trial, then buy annually with the licence key you already hold.

Cmsmart just simplified WooCommerce product designer pricing into four annual plans — Premium, Fullstore, B2B and Marketplace — so you stop guessing which bundle of design tools, store package and AI allowance your business actually needs before you pay.

What's the real cost of picking the wrong Cmsmart plan?

Cmsmart's plans now nest cleanly — Premium, Fullstore, B2B and Marketplace — so picking too small a tier means re-buying later, and picking too big means paying for AI tokens and store features you won't touch this year.

Most merchants juggle several separate line items to run a personalization storefront: the design plugin, AI image tooling, hosting, and whoever answers support tickets when checkout breaks at 11pm. Comparing all of that against one vendor's annual number is hard, and it's easy to either overpay for a tier you don't need yet, or under-buy and hit a wall the day a wholesale client asks for company pricing.

Three pains come up again and again when store owners price this out:

  • Nesting confusion. It isn't always obvious which features carry over from Premium to Fullstore to B2B to Marketplace, so buyers either open a support ticket or guess.
  • Per-domain licensing. Multi-site or staging setups raise the question of whether a second licence is needed.
  • Commitment anxiety. Annual-only billing with no refunds feels risky without a real trial first.

Cmsmart insight: In our plan-upgrade conversations, the store owners who get caught out aren't usually the ones who picked the "wrong" tier up front — they're the ones who let a subscription lapse for a few weeks between renewals. The licence system behind this pricing update no longer protects a lapsed key's old price, so treat the renewal date like a bill you can't be late on.

What does your store look like on the right Cmsmart plan?

On the right Cmsmart plan, you stop renting four separate tools and start running one annual subscription: a licence key that covers your domain, a store package you installed once, and an AI token wallet that tops up at renewal.

Example scenario. A print shop outgrows its single-store Fullstore plan after a wholesale client asks for net-30 terms and bulk pricing. The owner upgrades the same licence key to B2B, gets credit for the unused months on Fullstore, and the store gains company accounts and tiered pricing without a re-install or a new domain to manage.

How does Cmsmart's WooCommerce product designer pricing work?

Cmsmart's WooCommerce product designer pricing nests four named annual plans, so everything in Premium carries into Fullstore, everything in Fullstore carries into B2B, and everything in B2B carries into Marketplace — one licence key, one upgrade path, no re-platforming.

Cmsmart markets B2B as a full store solution built on the same product designer, not a separate plugin.

Every tier is billed once a year, so the price you see per month is really an annual number divided by twelve: Premium is $29/mo ($290/year, save $58, 3,000 AI tokens a year), Fullstore is $59/mo ($590/year, save $118, 20,000 AI tokens), B2B is $149/mo ($1,490/year, save $298, 100,000 AI tokens), and Marketplace is $299/mo ($2,990/year, save $598, 200,000 AI tokens) — each confirmed on the live pricing page on October 11, 2026, and every annual purchase also adds a one-time launch gift of extra AI tokens (1,000 / 5,000 / 20,000 / 40,000) to your wallet on top of the yearly allowance. That "twelve months for the price of ten" structure sits inside the typical 20-24% annual-billing discount that an analysis of 46 SaaS products' published monthly and annual prices found to be the market norm, rather than an unusually deep or shallow cut. Plans may change, so always check the live pricing page before you commit.

A single licence key covers your root domain and its subdomains, and local or staging copies of the same store are free to run side by side while you test changes. Trial access is free for 30 days on any tier, but plans are non-refundable once you buy — which is also why the trial exists, so you can check fit before the annual charge lands. Store packages for every tier, including B2B and Marketplace, are free downloads from your dashboard; they still need a licence key to unlock, though the trial works without one.

What's the ROI of paying Cmsmart annually instead of juggling monthly tools?

Paying Cmsmart annually trades a string of separate monthly tool bills for one predictable number: your licence, your AI token wallet and, if you want it, your hosting all renew together once a year, so the finance side of running a personalization storefront stops needing a monthly reconciliation.

Size it yourself. Add up what you currently pay each month across a design plugin, AI image tooling and support, multiply by twelve, and compare that to the Cmsmart annual price for the matching tier — if Cmsmart's single annual number already undercuts that stack, the ROI case is immediate. For stores specifically weighing the jump to B2B or Marketplace, the market you'd be selling into is growing fast: the global B2B e-commerce market is valued at $28.0 trillion in 2026 and is projected to grow at a 20.9% CAGR, according to Grand View Research, so a wholesale storefront is not a niche bet.

How do you set up and buy a Cmsmart plan?

Buying a Cmsmart plan is mostly a dashboard click: compare tiers, start your 30-day free trial, confirm pricing, pay once a year with the same licence key you already hold, and download the matching store or plugin package straight from your account.

  1. Open cmsmart.net/pricing and compare Premium, Fullstore, B2B and Marketplace side by side.
  2. Pick the tier that matches your store type today — you can upgrade the same licence key later.
  3. Start the free 30-day trial before you pay anything.
  4. Create your Cmsmart account if you're new; returning customers log in instead.
  5. Choose annual billing — it's the only option — and pay once through the plan cart.
  6. Decide whether to take the optional three months of hosting help or install on your own hosting.
  7. Download the store package or plugin from your dashboard and activate it with your licence key.
  8. Check your AI token wallet for the yearly allowance plus the one-time launch gift.
  9. Mark your renewal date: letting the subscription lapse moves you to current pricing when you come back.

Going further: what can Cmsmart build beyond your plan?

When your business needs something none of the four plans cover out of the box, Cmsmart builds it as custom development on top of the same licence: ERP/MIS sync, bespoke pricing rules, or moving an existing Premium or Fullstore site into a full B2B operation.

The four plans are store packages and a plugin, not a ceiling on what Cmsmart can build for you. A few requests that come up once store owners are past the "which plan" question:

  • Upgrading an existing store to B2B. If you already run a Cmsmart store and want company accounts, tiered pricing and approval flows, Cmsmart builds the move as a dedicated upgrade-existing-store-to-B2B service instead of asking you to start over on a new domain.
  • Custom pricing and quoting rules. Price matrices, MOQ discounts or RFQ workflows beyond the standard setup are custom development, scoped per store.
  • ERP/MIS and print-API integrations. Connecting orders to an existing ERP, MIS or in-house print queue is a project Cmsmart's team scopes and delivers, not a plan toggle.

The delivery approach is the same for all of it: discovery, solution design, build sprints, QA, launch and ongoing support — see examples in Cmsmart's project case studies.

Why work with Cmsmart for your WooCommerce store?

Cmsmart has run WooCommerce product-designer storefronts since 2012 as a Netbase JSC division, so the same team pricing your Premium-to-Marketplace upgrade path also built the Cmsmart Cloud rendering and AI preflight tools your token wallet pays for.

Cmsmart is a Netbase JSC division operating since 2012, with 6,300+ client projects delivered across 80+ countries and a 4.2 rating from 404 reviews on Trustpilot. Every annual plan draws on the same Cmsmart Cloud rendering pipeline that produces the print-ready PDF that matches the order, plus the AI preflight checks available through your token wallet.

WooCommerce remains one of the largest ecommerce platforms by site count — holding 39.0% of named ecommerce-platform market share in 2026, according to GravityKit's analysis — which is part of why Cmsmart builds its product designer, store packages and B2B/Marketplace solutions exclusively on top of it rather than spreading across platforms.

Frequently asked questions about Cmsmart plans and billing

Can I pay monthly instead of annually?

No — Cmsmart plans are annual only, billed as twelve months for the price of ten. The free 30-day trial lets you confirm fit before that first annual charge.

What happens to my current subscription under the new pricing?

Existing subscriptions keep renewing at their current price. Once a subscription lapses, renewal moves to the current plans because the licence system itself changed — so renewing on time is what keeps your old price.

Can I upgrade to a higher tier later?

Yes. Upgrading a licence key to a higher tier keeps the same key and credits the unused term from your current plan toward the new one, so there's no need to re-install or move domains.

Is hosting required to run a Cmsmart plan?

No. Three months of hosting are offered as optional help to launch quickly; self-hosting your WooCommerce store works just as well on any of the four tiers.

Do I need a separate licence for staging or a subdomain?

No. One licence key covers your root domain and its subdomains, and local or staging copies of the same store are free to run alongside it.

What's the difference between the B2B and Marketplace plans?

B2B is a full store solution for selling to other businesses, with company accounts and pricing. Marketplace builds on everything in B2B and adds multi-vendor selling. Both are store solutions on the same product designer, not separate plugins.
