Overview

Development sites give Kajabi Partners a free space to experiment with features, build templates, and demo potential client solutions — all without affecting a live site. Sites remain in development until transferred to the Hero who will own them. Use development sites to:
  • Build Client Prototypes: Create mockups or templates to share with leads.
  • Test New Features: Try out platform updates before using them on client sites.
  • Develop Efficient Workflows: Build and refine your internal processes.
Note: You will not be able to collect contacts/emails, access branded app, analytics, creator studio or sell products from the development site. You will also not be able to access certain settings.

​

FAQs

​
Can I upgrade a Development Site to a full Kajabi plan?

As a Kajabi Partner/Agency, you can transfer ownership to:
  • Clients who do not have a Kajabi account, however, they will have to create an account before they can accept the site transfer
  • Clients with a Kajabi account, but they will need to be within their plan limits
When a site transfer is initiated by a Kajabi Partner, the future owner of the site (aka your client) will receive an email with instructions to accept the transfer.

​
Can I use these sites to run my own business or sell products?

No, Development Sites are strictly for demo and development purposes. Selling products is not permitted on those sites. Development sites can be/are built to be sold and transferred to clients.
