One platform underneath every plan
CMS Max brings content, pages, forms, products, customers, orders, reports, SEO, and integrations into one role-friendly administration experience. Move between plans as operational needs expand without moving the website onto a different product.
Manage pages, media, reusable sections, templates, CSS, JavaScript, blogs, events, careers, locations, forms, and administrator permissions.
Use supported commerce, customer, order, fulfillment, payment, tax, shipping, plugin, API, and POS workflows as the plan and implementation require.
Use SEO controls, Build with AI, reports, integrations, dedicated support, and optional services to keep improving the customer experience.

Build with AI
Every CMS Max plan includes Build with AI and a suggested monthly token allowance. These allowances were sized under the selected model-cost assumption so modeled token expense stays at or below 20 percent of the monthly platform price.
Actual usage economics vary with the selected AI model and the mix of input and generated output. Treat these as planning allowances, then review model choice and usage patterns for the active account.

Processing rates are presented separately from the platform subscription. Final merchant eligibility, underwriting, account terms, third-party requirements, and applicable fees are confirmed during setup.
