Webnode is a hosted website builder founded in Brno, Czechia, with selling available from the Standard tier at 249 CZK a month and prices billed in local currency rather than dollars. For a sole trader with a few dozen products who wants a simple site with a cart, it is a cheap and friendly start. As soon as the store grows into variants, stock control, several carriers, product feeds and automation, you hit a ceiling, because Webnode is built as a website builder rather than a full ecommerce platform. Its own maker says so too.
Comparison table
The facts in one place first. Figures as of July 2026.
| Need | Webnode | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Site with a cart in your language | yes | from the Standard tier at 249 CZK |
| Billing in local currency | yes | no exchange rate risk |
| Variants, discounts, comparison feeds | from Profi | about 417 to 449 CZK |
| Invoicing in the admin | Business only | top tier |
| Stock, automation, loyalty | no | the platform does not go there |
| Full data export | no | limited portability |
Status as of 2026, amounts in Czech crowns. Webnode states no hard product limit, the real ceiling is the storage and data transfer allowance of the tier. Paid tiers carry an annual commitment.
A builder that bills in your currency, not in dollars
Webnode is a pleasant exception among website builders. It started around 2008 in Brno, it is fully available in Czech, and crucially it bills in Czech crowns, so the exchange rate risk you carry with Wix or Squarespace disappears. For a lot of beginners in that market this is the first and decisive plus, and the general point holds anywhere: a builder that prices in your currency and speaks your language removes friction that has nothing to do with features.
Selling is possible from the Standard tier at 249 crowns a month. Below it sit Limited and Mini at around 75 to 139 crowns, which cannot sell at all. Full ecommerce features, meaning product comparison feeds, product variants and discounts, arrive only on the Profi tier at roughly 417 to 449 crowns, and invoicing directly in the admin plus selling in several currencies only on the top Business tier. Note that paid tiers require at least an annual commitment. The amounts are in Czech crowns as published, and the useful part is the ladder between tiers rather than the absolute number.
When Webnode is plenty
I do not want to talk Webnode down, because for a certain kind of shop it is a sensible choice. If you sell a few dozen products, have no complicated variants and mostly want a simple attractive site with a cart that you can build yourself in an evening, Webnode does the job. It is genuinely suitable for a complete beginner.
It fits a sole trader, a small maker or somebody for whom selling is a sideline to their main work. For 249 crowns a month you get a site people can buy from, and you never touch hosting or updates. For that scenario, chasing a more robust platform is wasted effort.
I will say this plainly, because people get it confused. Cheaper does not mean worse, it means aimed at something else. The cafe around the corner does not need to sell a thousand product lines in three currencies, it needs a nice page, a few products and a cart that works. Webnode is tuned exactly for that, and an oversized platform would only hand it problems it does not have.
Where you hit the ceiling
The trouble starts when the store begins to grow. Webnode is positioned as a tool for websites with the option of smaller scale selling rather than as a full ecommerce platform. That is not just my reading, the maker says it too and the reviews agree: for a larger catalogue and demanding operations, Webnode is not enough.
Officially there is no hard cap on the number of products, but the real ceiling is the storage and data transfer allowance of your tier. The moment you need variants at scale, stock control, several carriers, automation, a loyalty programme or serious work with product feeds, you hit the wall. These are not features Webnode could catch up on with an add-on, they are simply not there at that depth.
Then a few operational irritations. There is no live chat support, the template selection lags behind Wix and customisation options are limited, and even a custom favicon arrives only from the Standard tier. On a simple site you shrug that off. On a more ambitious store it starts to get in the way.
Leaving Webnode is not free
One more thing nobody thinks about at the start, and should. Webnode is a closed platform with limited data portability. On the free tier you cannot even download a backup, it is kept only for restoring inside the admin, and the site has no full standardised export.
Moving elsewhere therefore usually means copying content over by hand or using an external migration tool, and neither the design nor the structure travels smoothly. On a small site that is bearable. On a store with dozens or hundreds of items it is laborious. Which is exactly why the question of how you leave belongs in the selection process, not in the week you decide to go.
When you want the same comfort plus room to grow
If what you like is that Webnode speaks your language and bills in your currency, but you do not want to hit a ceiling in the month after your first good one, it is worth comparing a platform built for growth. Behio Mini costs 390 crowns a month, not quite 150 crowns more than Webnode Standard, and that includes stock, variants, product feeds for comparison sites and an AI teammate.
The difference is how far the platform will travel with you. Behio scales from a hundred products on Light to hundreds of thousands on higher plans and never caps order volume, so growth does not punish you. It also imports from Webnode, so the move is not a leap into the dark.
The verdict
Webnode is an honest builder that makes sense to exactly the people it is aimed at: a sole trader or micro business with a few dozen products who wants a simple site with a cart in their own language and currency. In that role it is cheap and friendly. Once the store grows into variants, stock, several carriers, feeds and automation, you hit a ceiling Webnode cannot close with an add-on, because it is a website builder rather than a full platform. If you want to keep the comfort but not outgrow your tool in six months, you are better off starting on a platform built for growth, which in the Czech and Slovak markets means something like Behio Mini at 390 crowns a month.
Common questions
Selling is available from the Standard tier at 249 CZK a month. The cheaper Limited and Mini tiers cannot sell. Full features such as variants, discounts and product comparison feeds arrive on the Profi tier (roughly 417 to 449 CZK), and invoicing in the admin plus multiple currencies on the top Business tier.
No. Webnode is built as a website builder with the option of smaller scale selling, not as a full ecommerce platform, and its maker confirms this. It does not stretch to a large catalogue, stock control, several carriers, feeds and automation, and the real ceiling is the storage and data transfer allowance of your tier.
Yes, and that is an advantage over Wix and Squarespace. The interface, support and prices are all in Czech crowns, so exchange rate risk disappears. Paid tiers do require at least an annual commitment and are paid by card or PayPal.
Only to a limited extent. Webnode is a closed platform with no full export. On the free tier you cannot even download a backup, and moving elsewhere usually means copying content by hand, with the design and structure not travelling smoothly. For a larger store, leaving is laborious.
If you want to stay with local language and currency but not hit a ceiling, consider a platform built for growth. Behio Mini costs 390 CZK a month, a little more than Webnode Standard, but includes stock, variants, feeds and AI, and it scales further. It also imports from Webnode.
