About Carrd
What you get
Carrd builds simple, responsive one-page sites: landing pages, waitlists, link pages and personal profiles. The free plan lets you build and publish a few sites; Pro plans add more sites, custom domains, forms and embeds. Pro plans are billed yearly:
- Pro Lite: $9 a year for 3 sites, without custom domains (premium Carrd URLs only).
- Pro Standard: $19 a year for 10 sites, with custom domains.
- Pro Plus: $49 a year for 25 sites, adding advanced forms, redirects and password protection.
Larger bundles go up to 1,000 sites.
Who qualifies
Anyone; sign up online. Pro can be tried free for 7 days with no payment or card.
Good to know
- The Pro page describes the upgrade as letting you build and publish more than three sites, so the free plan's site count is limited.
- Carrd is deliberately one page per site; for a blog or many pages, use Framer, Webflow or another builder.
- Forms, custom domains and embeds are Pro features.
- A Carrd page plus a form embed is enough to test demand: send traffic, count sign-ups, and only then spend time on a bigger site.
- Because Pro is billed yearly, the cost is low enough to keep a separate page for each idea you test.
Verdict
For validating an idea, Carrd is hard to beat: a clean waitlist page on your own domain costs $19 a year. Upgrade to a full builder when you need several pages or a blog.
How to apply
- Sign up on carrd.com and start from a template.
- Build your one-page site and publish it on a free Carrd URL.
- Try Pro free for 7 days if you need forms or a custom domain.
- Buy Pro Standard ($19 a year) to connect your domain.
- Add a form or email embed to collect sign-ups.
