Kinsta has no intro discount that expires at renewal: the price you sign up at is the price you keep. The choices that matter are single-site versus multi-site, and monthly versus annual billing.
Before you start: pick a plan
As of October 2026, Kinsta's pricing page lists:
| Plan | Monthly | Annual | Sites | Storage |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Single 20GB | $35/mo | $350/yr | 1 | 10 GB |
| WP 2 | $70/mo | $700/yr | 2 | 20 GB |
| WP 5 | $115/mo | $1,150/yr | 5 | 30 GB |
| WP 10 | $225/mo | $2,250/yr | 10 | 40 GB |
Annual billing includes two months free. See the Kinsta renewal price page for the five-year cost.
Step 1: Choose a plan and billing interval
On Kinsta's pricing page, pick single or multiple sites, then the plan size, then monthly or annual billing.
Step 2: Know how the free month works
Kinsta offers the first month free on Single 35k visits, Single 20GB bandwidth, WP 2, and Launch plans. Its 30-day money-back guarantee then starts from the renewal date after the free month. The guarantee is only for first-time customers.
Step 3: Create your account and pay
Complete the checkout. The person who creates the company becomes the Company Owner, the only role that can later cancel the plan.
Step 4: Add your site in MyKinsta
Create a new WordPress site in MyKinsta, or request a free migration of an existing one. Our Kinsta migration guide covers what to prepare.
What to check after you sign up
- Refund window: 30 days after activation (or after the free month ends). See our Kinsta cancellation guide.
- Overages: Usage above your plan's limits is billed separately and is not covered by the guarantee.
