What your shop page costs over three years — and the one-off that replaces it

Pick the tool you pay for, and the calculator adds up what it takes from you over one, two or three years. Then put next to it a page that answers the same three questions for $0 — or $49 once, printed pieces included. Nothing is sent anywhere; every number is worked out in your browser.

Squarespace has no free plan — a 14-day trial, then $19 a month billed annually ($228 a year) or $25 month to month.

Same job — a price list, the hours, the address and a number that dials — bought as one payment instead of 36.

The $0 page is the same page

Card is free forever: prices, hours with an open-now state, the address with Directions, photos, reviews and a tap-to-call number. The only badge is one credit line in the footer.

The $49 is the paper, not the software

The kit is the live page plus fifteen printed pieces — QR poster, price sheet, table cards, stickers, tent, door sign, review cards — built from the same list so the paper and the phone cannot disagree.

Where this arithmetic stops

If you sell products, blog, need a page per stylist, take bookings with deposits or want a store, a builder is the right tool and its monthly fee is the price of that. This counts one page only.

The prices in the presets, and where each one comes from

Every figure below was read from the vendor's own pricing page, on the date in the last column. No number here is an estimate, a "starting from" borrowed from a review site, or a competitor's screenshot.

Squarespace and Wix prices were read on 14 November 2026, Linktree's on 13 November 2026 — the date column is on the desktop view. MapToSite's own figures are on this site.

Two POS vendors, two different kinds of silence. Restaurants and food trucks usually pay one of them, and neither prints a monthly software fee that compares with a website plan. Toast publishes no software price at all: its pricing page names hardware and implementation as the upfront costs and routes the rest to a quote. Clover does publish prices, but as a bundle per business type — for a full-service restaurant, Starter is $179 a month for 36 months, or $1,799 for the hardware plus an $89.95 monthly plan fee, before card fees of 2.3% + 10¢ — so the hardware is inside the number and there is no “software only” line to put beside a page. Both pages were read on 14 November 2026. The preset therefore asks you to type the figure from your own quote or invoice; a made-up list price would be the one thing this tool cannot do.

How the arithmetic works, so you can check it

  • Years become months. One year is 12 payments, two is 24, three is 36. The big number is monthly cost × 12 × years.
  • Annual billing is still 12 payments. At $19 a month "billed annually" the card is charged $228 once a year; three years is $684. Nothing is compounded, discounted further or adjusted for inflation, which means the real number is higher, not lower.
  • Tax, domains and apps are outside it. The presets are pre-tax list prices. A domain after Squarespace's first year, or an app from a marketplace, is a separate line you would add.
  • The kit is one payment at any horizon. $49 for ten tables, $89 for thirty, $149 for a hundred — the same on year one and on year three, which is why the gap grows with the slider.

What a monthly fee actually buys

Be fair to the subscriptions: $19 a month buys an editor, a template library, a blog, a shop, SEO settings, forms and a support desk. For a shop that uses four of those, it is the cheapest hour of labour it will ever buy.

The number this page is about is smaller and blunter: a stranger on a bus who wants to know what a haircut, a set or a plate costs, whether you are open, and how to get there. Three facts and a phone number. If that is the whole job, then the subscription is being paid for something you do not use, every month, for years — and the same three facts are free here, or $49 printed and built for you.

The honest split: if you need the blog, the store or the booking engine, keep the subscription and use the free page as the bio link, the QR target and the "visit us" page. Runs them both, costs nothing extra. The Squarespace comparison and the Wix one lay that out line by line.

Questions we get asked

How much does a Squarespace, Wix or Linktree page cost over three years?

Squarespace Basic: $228 a year, $684 over three. Wix Light: $204 a year, $612 over three. Linktree Pro: $168 a year on annual billing, $504 over three. Before tax, and before a domain renewal in year two.

Why does the calculator ask how many tables my shop has?

Because the printed half of the kit is made per table — a tent card and a sticker for each. Ten tables or fewer is Starter at $49; up to thirty is Menu Kit at $89; up to a hundred is Full Launch at $149. The page itself is the same at every price.

Does it matter that I pay monthly rather than annually?

Yes — the toggle switches to the monthly rate where the vendor prints one. Squarespace Basic goes from $19 to $25, Linktree Pro from $14 to $17, and over three years that is $216 and $108 more. Wix prints only the yearly rate, so there is no monthly number to switch to.

Is anything I type sent anywhere?

No. The page works with the network off once loaded. There is no email field, no account and no form submission — the only thing recorded is an anonymous page-view count, the same as every other page on this site.

Done paying monthly for a price list

Send a Maps link, your prices and your phone number. Within 24 hours: the live mobile page and the fifteen printed pieces, built from the same list — $49 once, no subscription and nothing auto-renewing.
