Canva has just announced a massive 300% price increase for its Teams subscription. Starting in December 2024, anyone using Canva Teams will see a jump in their bill.
According to Canva, this price hike is all about their investment in AI. They have added new AI features that help users create more dynamic designs, faster. Canva says that by introducing tools like Magic Media, they are helping teams work more efficiently.
Canva Teams Price Increase Breakdown
If you’re using Canva Teams, you probably used to pay around $120 a year. But soon, that price is jumping to $500 a year for a team of three. If you’re running a small team, the increase can feel like a small addition. Here’s how the numbers look now:
- Old Price: $120/year or $150 for a small team of up to five people.
- New Price: $500/year for three people (or $100 per person).
This price varies depending on the country you are in.
Alternatives
If you’re using Canva Teams, you’ve got a bit of time before the new pricing kicks in this December. Between now and then, it’s a good idea to ask yourself: Is this new pricing worth it for my team?
If you’re a design-heavy team that uses all of Canva’s new AI features, maybe this makes sense for you. But if you’re someone who uses Canva for simpler projects—like social media graphics or small marketing campaigns—you might want consider alternatives like Adobe products. Or maybe join a “subscription resistance movement” of designers armed with nothing but Microsoft Paint and determination.
