Can I upgrade my Webflow account to access the code embed feature, or do I need to also get a site hosting plan?

To access the code embed feature in Webflow, you need to upgrade your Webflow account to one of the paid plans. The code embed feature allows you to add custom code to your Webflow site, giving you the ability to integrate with third-party services or add advanced functionality to your site. Upgrading your account will unlock this feature and give you more control over your site's code.

However, it's important to note that upgrading your account to access the code embed feature does not include a hosting plan. Webflow separates the code embed feature from site hosting, so you will need to have a separate site hosting plan to make your site live on the internet. This hosting plan ensures that your website is accessible to visitors and provides the necessary infrastructure to serve your site's files.

Here is a step-by-step guide to upgrade your Webflow account and access the code embed feature:

  1. Login to your Webflow account.
  2. Click on the "Billing" tab in the top navigation bar.
  3. Choose the plan that best suits your needs and click on the "Upgrade" button.
  4. Select the payment frequency (monthly or annual) and provide the required billing information.
  5. Complete the checkout process and confirm your upgrade.

Once you have upgraded your account, you can start using the code embed feature by navigating to the "Project Settings" of your Webflow project. From there, you can add custom code within the "Custom Code" section or utilize the various code embedding options available throughout the designer.

Remember that while upgrading your account provides access to the code embed feature, you will still need to separately purchase a site hosting plan to make your Webflow site live on the internet.

In summary, to access the code embed feature in Webflow, you need to upgrade your Webflow account. However, you will need a separate site hosting plan to make your Webflow site live on the internet.
