Your site cannot leave
Wix’s help center says a Wix site must run on Wix’s servers, so it cannot be exported.
Migrate from Wix to Modulify
Wix says your site cannot leave Wix. Modulify copies it anyway, every page and record at the same address, into code you own.
- Pages and layouts
- Mobile layout
- CMS collections
- Wix Stores
- Blog
- Bookings and events
- Contacts
- Forms
Built in the Editor or in Studio, every page keeps its address and its layout on every screen. Your CMS, store, blog, bookings and contacts come with it.
Why people leave Wix
Wix is easy to start on. These are the reasons it gets harder to stay.
Stuck with your template
You cannot switch templates and keep your content, or move an Editor site to Studio without a rebuild.
Renewals that cost more
Wix raised prices in 2019, 2022 and 2024, and first-year discounts end at renewal.
Fees on what you sell
Wix takes up to 4% of Pricing Plans sales and 2.5% of ticket sales, on top of card fees.
Features sold as apps
Paid apps are not included in Premium plans and renew monthly, so the bill grows with each one.
Content that cannot leave
Blog posts cannot be exported to another platform, and Velo code only runs on Wix.
What you pay on Wix, and on Modulify
The same site on each platform. Yearly prices are per month, billed yearly.

WixPaid apps, renewed monthly and not included in Premium plans.
Wix US prices from wix.com/plans, per month paid yearly up front, with limits and fees from its Help Center, checked November 4, 2026, before tax. Wix is a trademark of its owner, not affiliated with Modulify.
Wix says you cannot move your site. You can.
Why the usual advice is to rebuild, and why you do not have to.
Wix says a site must run on its servers, and its exports leave the design and the blog behind. So the usual advice is to copy everything out by hand and rebuild.
Modulify does the copying for you. It reads each page the way Wix serves it, on desktop and on phones, and brings your data across through a Wix API key you create.
- Pages and layouts: desktop and mobile on the Wix Editor, every screen size on Wix Studio.
- Data: collections, products, orders, posts, bookings, events, contacts and members.
- Files: images, videos and Media Manager files, copied to your storage.
What comes across from Wix
Everything the import copies, and where it lands in your new site.
| In Wix | In Modulify |
|---|---|
| Published pages | Editable pages at the same addresses, with their SEO and social tags |
| Mobile layout on the Wix Editor | The same layout on phones |
| Screen sizes on Wix Studio | The same layout for each screen size |
| CMS collections | One dataset per collection, with references and translations |
| Wix Stores | Products, variants, collections or categories, and stock levels |
| Store orders | Orders and order items |
| Wix Blog | Blog posts, categories and tags |
| Wix Bookings and Events | Booking services and events |
| Pricing Plans | Pricing plans |
| Contacts and site members | Contacts and members |
| Wix Forms | Working forms, plus the submissions Wix holds |
| Media Manager | A media files dataset, with the files in your storage |
| Fonts | Copies in the site |
| URL redirects | Redirects on the new site |
| Languages | The same language addresses and the site’s language list |
| Custom code in site settings | The same code on your pages |
How to migrate from Wix
Four steps. The copy itself runs in the background.
- 1
Create a Wix API key
In your Wix account, open API Keys and create a key with All site permissions for this site.
- 2
Import from Home
On Home, click +, choose From Wix, and enter your address and key. The dialog shows what it found.
- 3
Confirm and import
Tick that you may rebuild the site, confirm, and select Import site. It copies in the background.
- 4
Check, then publish
The AI builds tables from your data and checks every page. Check the preview, then publish on your domain.
What changes after the move
Your site looks the same. Now it is yours.
Code you own
Your pages become code. Move it to your GitHub on any paid plan, or export everything on Pro.
Redesign by asking
Describe a new look and the AI changes the pages you pick, keeping your content.
Your data in real tables
Products, posts, bookings and contacts land in SQL tables you can edit and export.
Features without apps
Ask for a booking form or a members area and the AI builds it, instead of renting an app.
The whole team, one plan
Pro includes your team with no charge per seat, and roles keep editors to content.
Analytics built in
Realtime analytics come with every plan, with no extra subscription.
Leave Wix without leaving Google
Every page keeps its address.
Pages keep their addresses, including Wix’s /post/ and /product-page/ paths, with their titles, descriptions and social tags. Your Wix redirects come across too.
- /Same address
- /aboutSame address
- /post/launch-notesSame address
- /product-page/linen-shirtSame address
- /fr/aboutSame address
Before you switch
What stays in Wix, and what to check on the new site.
Slideshows, lightboxes and popups
Slideshows show their first slide and lightboxes need rebuilding. Ask the chat.
Cart, checkout and member login
They run on Wix, so they work again once the AI rebuilds them.
Velo code and browser apps
Velo code and browser apps such as live chat stay behind. Add the ones you need again.
App translations
Store and blog translations stay behind. CMS translations and translated pages come across.
Wix fonts
Wix library fonts are licensed for Wix sites, so check their license before you publish.
Galleries on Wix Studio
Studio galleries keep their desktop layout on phones. Ask the chat to adjust them.
Migrating from Wix, answered
What Wix site owners ask before they move.
Not from Wix: its sites must run on Wix’s servers, and its CSV exports leave out the design and the blog. Modulify copies every page and record into code you own, at the same address.
Yes. A Wix Editor site keeps its mobile layout on phones, and a Wix Studio site keeps its layout for each screen size.
CMS collections with translations, store products and orders, blog posts, bookings, events, pricing plans, contacts, members, form submissions, media files and redirects.
The data of Stores, Blog, Bookings, Events, Pricing Plans and Forms does. Browser apps such as live chat and Velo code stay behind, and the AI can rebuild what you need.
Slideshows show their first slide, and lightboxes, popups and parallax need rebuilding. Ask the chat and it rebuilds them.
Owner or co-owner access, to create an API key with All site permissions for the site. Publish the latest version first.
Wix Light at $17 a month is cheaper up front, but it cannot sell, caps your team and CMS, and first-year discounts end at renewal. Starter is $25, or $20 yearly, with no fee on sales.
Yes. Wherever it is registered, Wix included, add the DNS records the Domain panel shows. Your Wix site stays live until then.
Nothing. The import only reads from Wix. Keep it live until your domain points to Modulify, then cancel your plan.
Moving from somewhere else?
Every migration copies the site exactly as it is. Pick the platform you are on.
Migrate from Webflow
Pages with their classes and interactions, CMS in every locale, products, forms and redirects.
Migrate from Framer
Pages with their breakpoints and effects, CMS, languages, fonts, forms and redirects.
Migrate from Shopify
Products, customers, full order history, content, translations, theme and storefront pages.
