Framer localization pricing is $20 per locale per month, charged on top of your Site plan, with a ceiling of 20 locales. As of September 2026 that puts a five-language blog on the Pro plan at $130 a month before anyone writes a word: $30 for the site and $100 for the five locales. The fee is flat per language, so your bill scales with the number of markets your business is in, not with how much you publish.

Every figure below comes from [framer.com/pricing](https://www.framer.com/pricing) and Framer's help center, both read on September 11, 2026. Framer simplified its plans and moved AI features onto a credit balance in mid-2026, so older totals, and in particular any translation word allowance you have read about, no longer describe the product you are buying.

## Framer localization pricing, checked September 2026

One line in that table decides the whole question. The per-locale rate is identical on Basic and Pro, so upgrading your Site plan does not buy cheaper languages. There is no bundle, no volume break and no included locale. Language eleven costs exactly what language one costs.

Seats are the line people forget. A second person working on the project is $20 a month, and Framer sells a cheaper content editor seat at $10 a month for people who only touch copy and CMS entries. The AI credit balance that powers automatic translation is metered separately, and it is covered further down.

## Add up the bill: two languages, five, ten

A blog needs a CMS collection, so Basic is the floor at $10 a month with 2 collections and 1,000 items. Most teams running a real blog land on Pro, which brings redirects, a staging environment, branching and 10 collections.

**At ten locales, 87% of the bill is the locale meter.**

Neither column includes editor seats, extra CMS item blocks or AI credit top-ups.

Look at the shape rather than the totals. Past three languages the Site plan is a rounding error and you are paying a language subscription that happens to include a website. That said, two languages for $70 a month with hreflang and locale routing handled for you is a fair price. The math only turns on you when the blog goes wide.

## What replaced the Framer AI translation word limit

People search for a Framer AI translation word limit because the old localization pricing metered translation in words, which is why Framer's support board still carries a thread titled " [Localisation pricing and word count](https://www.framer.community/c/support/localisation-pricing-and-word-count)". That model is gone.

As of September 2026, automatic translation draws on your plan's AI credit balance: 1,000 credits a month on Basic, 3,000 on Pro. Credits pool across the projects in a workspace, so a workspace with two Basic projects gets 2,000 a month, and unused credits do not roll into the next cycle.

There is no published rate. Framer's [AI credits documentation](https://www.framer.com/help/articles/how-ai-credits-and-agents-pricing-work/) says credit usage depends on the complexity of the request and how much work is involved, and it does not give a per-word, per-page or per-CMS-item translation cost. You cannot forecast what translating a 200-post archive into six languages will cost until you have spent some of the balance finding out. If you exhaust it, credit-using features pause until the next reset or until you buy a top-up, and you can still add locales and type translations in yourself at no credit cost.

Then there is the part that quietly drains the balance. Framer's [Auto Translate documentation](https://www.framer.com/help/articles/auto-translate-for-localization/) explains that when you create or update a CMS item, its translatable fields are automatically translated into every enabled locale. On ten locales, one corrected sentence in a published post is ten translation jobs. A blog that gets edited after publication, which is every blog doing SEO properly, burns credits on work the reader will never notice.

## Localized CMS items and the item cap

Pro includes 2,500 CMS items and sells more at $20 per 10,000, to a maximum of 40,000. Basic includes 1,000.

Framer's pricing page does not state how localized items are counted against that number, and this is the single most expensive unknown in a [Framer multilingual blog](/blog/framer-blog-cms/). A widely cited third-party guide to [Framer's limitations](https://letaiworkforme.com/blog/framer-limitations-complete-guide) states that every localized version of every item counts toward the limit, and works the example of a 2,000-item site in three languages consuming 6,000 items. Its plan names and caps predate the mid-2026 repricing, so take the arithmetic from it and not the tier numbers.

Run that arithmetic on your own blog before you buy locales. Four hundred posts across ten locales is 4,400 items on the pessimistic reading, which clears Pro's 2,500 and forces a $20 item block on top of the $200 in locale fees. On the optimistic reading it is 400 items and nothing changes. The gap is worth one email to Framer support, in writing, before you enable language four.

## Which Framer locale setups are worth paying for

**Two or three languages, small blog, marketing pages that rarely change.** Stay. You are at $50 to $90 a month, Framer generates hreflang and routes visitors to their locale, and the credit allowance comfortably covers a page set that is mostly static.

**Five or more languages with an active publishing schedule.** Price the alternative. The locale fee is fixed, the credit consumption is not, and the item cap may be multiplying behind the scenes.

**More than 20 markets.** The 20-locale ceiling is a hard product limit outside Enterprise, so plan around it now rather than at language 19.

Framer's own request board carries a standing thread titled " [Rethink Localization Pricing](https://www.framer.community/c/requests/rethink-localization-pricing)", and although the thread predates the mid-2026 repricing, the objection in its title is structural rather than a complaint about the size of the number. A flat per-language meter charges a five-market company five times what a one-market company pays for identical software. Webflow prices localization the same way, so switching design tools does not change the model.

## Keep the marketing site on Framer, move the multilingual blog to /blog

Neither of the two problems above comes from your design tool. Both come from where the blog sits. The credit balance drains because posts get edited after publication, and the item cap fills because posts get localized. Move that one workload off Framer and both meters stop counting. Framer goes on hosting the pages your designers build, while yoursite.com/blog is served by [Superblog](https://superblog.ai) behind a reverse proxy, the same edge routing Framer users already set up for a subdirectory blog. Readers and crawlers see a single domain. The walkthrough is at [blog for Framer](/use-cases/blog-for-framer), and it works on every plan.

[Multilingual SEO](/features/multilingual-seo) sits on the $99-a-month Super plan, with no per-language charge of any kind attached to it. A Spanish version of a post lives at `/es/` and a German one at `/de/`, the subdirectory layout Google asks for. Each translation carries hreflang in the page head and again in the sitemap, a matching `<html lang>` value, a canonical pointing at itself, `og:locale` plus `og:locale:alternate`, and `inLanguage` inside the JSON-LD. Sitemap files split by language across posts, categories, tags and authors, and every one of them is listed in the sitemap index. RSS feeds, search indexes and the header language switcher split the same way. The supported list runs to 41 languages, anything you have not translated falls back to your default, and language 41 is priced exactly like language 1.

Now apply Framer's credit question to us, because translation is metered here too. On Super you supply the translations yourself and pay nothing per word, at any volume. Automatic translation belongs to the Business plan and draws on one shared balance with AI images and keyword research. Business carries 199 credits each month. Translation bills at 1 credit per 3,000 characters of content, so the rate is published and you can price a 200-post archive in six languages before you commit to anything. That is the part Framer will not quote you.

What keeps a translated archive cheap in year two is the rest of the platform:

- **Nothing to patch.** No code to deploy, no server to run, no plugin to upgrade, no security update to chase. Every page is a static file built ahead of time and served from a CDN, which leaves no database and no runtime surface for anyone to attack.
- **Built for writing, not for laying out pages.** Autosave and co-authors on a post come with every plan. Scheduled publishing and collaborative review start on Pro. Roles are Admin, Editor and Writer, for 5 team members on Pro, 10 on Super and 25 on Business.
- **SEO that ships with every plan.** JSON-LD covering Article, WebPage, Organization, ImageObject and FAQ. XML sitemaps. An IndexNow ping the moment you publish. Canonical URLs and Open Graph tags. An llms.txt index that exposes a plain-markdown copy of each post, which is what AI assistants read when they cite you.
- **Speed you never have to budget for.** 90+ Lighthouse on every page, WebP conversion handled for you, free SSL and a global CDN on all plans. [Framer SEO](/blog/framer-seo/) covers how that lands next to a Framer-hosted blog.
- **Analytics.** Pirsch, privacy-friendly, with no cookies and no consent banner, from Pro upward. Google Analytics works on any plan.
- **Proof it holds at size.** 23 blogs on Superblog hold 1,000 or more posts. Getting a Framer blog in means exporting a CSV and mapping the columns, and WordPress, Ghost, Webflow, Wix, Shopify, Blogger, Drupal and Docusaurus import directly.

A subdirectory, a subdomain or a custom domain is yours on any tier. Tier by tier detail is on [pricing](/pricing).

## Questions people ask about Framer localization costs

### How much does Framer localization cost per language?

$20 per locale per month, as of September 2026, identical on Basic and Pro, on top of your Site plan. Five languages is $100 a month in locale fees alone.

### How many languages can a Framer site have?

Up to 20 locales on Basic and Pro. Beyond that you are talking to Enterprise sales, where locale pricing is custom.

### Is there still a Framer AI translation word limit?

No. Translation now consumes AI credits from your plan, 1,000 a month on Basic and 3,000 on Pro, and Framer does not publish a per-word rate. Manual translation never uses credits.

### If I turn on five locales, does my Framer item count multiply by five?

Framer's pricing page does not say. A well-known third-party guide reports that each localized version counts as its own item, so confirm it with support before adding locales to a large blog.

### Can I stay on Framer and stop paying by the language?

Yes, for the blog. Leave the Framer site where it is and host the posts at yoursite.com/blog on a platform where locales are not a line item. Superblog's Super plan does that for $99 a month flat, with hreflang, subdirectory locales and split sitemaps across all 41 languages it supports.

## Put a number on the second language before you buy the tenth

Take your real post count, multiply by the locales you actually want, and price both routes with those numbers rather than with the two-language example everybody demos. If the blog is the thing dragging the localization bill upward, the blog is the thing to move.

Trying Superblog runs 7 days and takes no card, and there is a 30-day money-back guarantee. Publish one language at yoursite.com/blog, add the second at no extra charge, and set that flat price against your next Framer invoice. Superblog does not charge per language.
