Black Friday is Friday, November 27, 2026. Some WordPress deals are already live, more open through November, and the biggest headline numbers need a closer look before you trust them.
That is what this page does differently. Most deal roundups copy the headline discount (“up to 70% off!”) and stop there. The problem: the big percentage usually applies to the most expensive plan, while the entry plan, the one a beginner actually buys, stays at its everyday price. So for every deal below, we checked what the cheapest paid plan really costs.
Every deal is labeled. Confirmed means the vendor has published the 2026 sale with dates. Expected means the vendor has not announced 2026 terms yet, and the figures are last year’s, shown so you know what is likely coming. We update this page as new sales go live.
Last updated: November 6, 2026.
Quick picks
- Best deal live right now: SureCart Pro Lifetime, 40% off at $419 one-time (was $699). No renewals, ever.
- Best for most beginners: WP Rocket, 40% off a 1-year license (about $36), 60% off 3-year licenses. Speed is the first upgrade most new sites need.
- Cheapest quality deal: Perfmatters, 30% off with code BLACKFRIDAY from November 15. Entry plan drops from $29.95 to about $21.
- Best forms deal (with a catch): Gravity Forms, 40% off, but only on the Elite license. November 23 to December 1.
- Wait until November 9: OptinMonster opens its sale then. Last year even its entry plan got a real discount, which is rare.
Deals you can buy now (confirmed for 2026)
SureCart: 40% off Lifetime, live until November 30
SureCart is a modern WooCommerce alternative for selling products and services. Its Black Friday sale is already running (November 2 to 30):
- Pro Lifetime: $419 one-time (was $699). One store, all features, no renewal fees.
- Pro Annual: $159 for the first year (was $199, 20% off). Renews at $199.
The lifetime math is the story here. Five years of Pro Annual costs about $955. Lifetime is $419 once. If you plan to sell anything on WordPress for more than two years, this is the strongest confirmed deal on this page.
WP Rocket: up to 60% off, live now
WP Rocket is the caching and performance plugin we recommend to beginners because it works out of the box, no settings maze. The 2026 sale:
- 40% off 1-year licenses (the entry Single license drops from about $59.95 to about $36).
- 60% off 3-year licenses.
Discount applies automatically, no code. The vendor’s page currently says the sale runs until November 27; some roundups report December 2. Either way, do not leave it to the last day. First purchase only, renewals are at the regular price.
Perfmatters: 30% off from November 15, code BLACKFRIDAY
Perfmatters is a lightweight performance plugin that pairs well with any caching setup. From November 15 to December 2, code BLACKFRIDAY takes 30% off new licenses: the 1-site plan goes from $29.95/year to about $21. A genuine entry-plan discount, and renewals get an automatic 15% off afterwards, which almost nobody else does.
Fluent Forms and the WPManageNinja suite: up to 40% off from November 16
WPManageNinja (Fluent Forms, FluentCRM, Ninja Tables) runs up to 40% off across its lineup from November 16 to December 4. Percentages vary per product, so check the plan page before checkout. Fluent Forms is the beginner-relevant one: a fast, capable free forms plugin with a premium tier worth having.
WebToffee: 30% off WooCommerce extensions, November 16 to 30
If you run WooCommerce, WebToffee’s six store plugins (invoices, product feeds, coupons and more) get 30% off yearly licenses from November 16 to 30, applied automatically.
Bonus: Cloudways hosting, 80% off for 2 months
Not a plugin, but it is a live, confirmed deal from a host we already recommend: code BFCM802 takes 80% off your first 2 months, November 5 to December 4. Useful if Black Friday is when you finally move hosts.
Announced, opening soon
OptinMonster: sale opens November 9
OptinMonster (popups, lead capture, conversion campaigns) opens its Black Friday sale on November 9 at 10:00 a.m. ET and runs to December 1. The discount is hidden until the sale opens. Last year it was up to 70% off, and unusually, the entry Basic plan got a real 60% discount instead of staying at full price. Check back on the 9th if lead capture is on your list.
Gravity Forms: 40% off Elite, November 23 to December 1
The most powerful WordPress form builder runs 40% off a new Elite license ($259/year, so about $155) from November 23 to December 1. Read the catch: the entry Basic license ($59/year) is not discounted. This deal is only good value if you genuinely need Elite features like advanced add-ons and priority support. Its add-on ecosystem joins in too, including Gravity PDF and Gravity Perks at 50% off.
Yoast SEO: sale announced, terms pending
Yoast’s Black Friday page is live but it is a waitlist for now. Signals from Yoast’s own pages point to 30% off plus 2 extra months for new customers, with dates still to come. Premium is $118.80/year before VAT, so the saving would be roughly $35. Wait for the official announcement before counting on it.
Expected deals (based on 2025, not announced yet)
These vendors have not published 2026 terms as of November 6. Last year’s numbers are here so you can plan, but treat them as history, not promises.
- WPForms: up to 70% off the top plans in 2025 (roughly November 26 to December 6). The entry Basic plan stayed at its everyday 50% first-year price ($49.50). WPForms also runs a year-round SAVE50 code, so Black Friday only really improves the higher tiers.
- Formidable Forms: up to 65% off in 2025 (November 17 to December 5). Same pattern: the entry tier’s “discount” is its normal first-year promo.
- Rank Math: roundups report the 2026 sale as live with up to about 40% off PRO, ending around December 2, but we could not confirm the exact figures on Rank Math’s own page yet, so verify the price at checkout. In 2025, PRO was 45 to 55% off the first year and renewed at full price (about $107.88/year).
- Elementor: up to 20% off editor plans in 2025, more across its hosting and add-on ecosystem. Editor plans start at $60/year.
- Divi (Elegant Themes): one of 2025’s biggest headline sales, up to 80% off Divi Pro (November 25 to 30). Divi itself is $89/year or $249 lifetime.
- Astra: up to 40% off headline in 2025, though the entry Astra Pro discount was closer to 14% in practice ($59 vs $69). Pro is $69/year or $249 lifetime.
- Blocksy: up to 40% off Pro in 2025 with code BFCM2025. Pro starts at $69/year.
- UpdraftPlus: 30% off annual Premium in 2025 with code BLACKFRIDAY30. The 2026 waitlist is live. Personal is $70/year (about $49 at 30% off).
- MonsterInsights: up to 70% off top plans in 2025. The entry Plus plan stayed at its everyday 50% ($99.50 of $199).
- SeedProd: 50 to 65% off by plan in 2025, plus a free year of RafflePress Pro bundled with higher plans. Basic stayed at its everyday 50% ($39.50 of $79).
- MemberPress: up to 70% off in 2025 with code STRIKEGOLD. The entry Launch plan stayed at its everyday 50% ($199.50 of $399), and MemberPress adds a 4.9% transaction fee on Launch.
The entry-plan math (read this before you buy anything)
This is the part the vendor banners leave out. In 2025, these entry plans did not get an extra Black Friday discount. They sat at their normal first-year promo price while the ads shouted about the top tier:
| Plugin | Headline claim | Entry plan reality |
|---|---|---|
| WPForms | “Up to 70% off” | Basic stayed at $49.50 (its everyday 50%) |
| MonsterInsights | “Up to 70% off” | Plus stayed at $99.50 (its everyday 50%) |
| SeedProd | “Up to 65% off” | Basic stayed at $39.50 (its everyday 50%) |
| MemberPress | “Up to 70% off” | Launch stayed at $199.50 (its everyday 50%) |
| Gravity Forms | “40% off” | Basic not included at all; Elite only |
That does not make the deals fake. It means the honest question is never “how big is the percentage?” but “what does the plan I will actually buy cost this week, and what does it renew at?”
Read the fine print, three rules:
- Almost every deal is first-year only. Renewals are at full price. A $419 lifetime deal (SureCart) beats a cheap first year if you will keep the tool for years.
- Wordfence never runs a Black Friday sale. Sites listing Wordfence “Black Friday codes” are making them up. Premium is $149/year, and the only real saving is buying several licenses at once.
- Some prices changed this year. Kadence and LearnDash are now sold in a Liquid Web bundle from $350/year, and GeneratePress rebuilt its pricing in October 2026 (GeneratePress One, from $99/year). Last year’s deal comparisons for those two no longer apply, so we have left them out of the expected list rather than guess.
FAQ
When do WordPress Black Friday deals start?
The early ones are live now. Most big sales open between November 15 and November 25 and end between November 30 and December 2, 2026.
Do I need a coupon code?
Usually not, most discounts apply automatically. The confirmed exception on this page is Perfmatters, which needs code BLACKFRIDAY from November 15.
Should a beginner buy lifetime deals?
Only for tools you are sure you will keep. SureCart’s Lifetime at $419 is good math if you sell online and plan to stay on WordPress. For everything else, one cheap first year is a safer way to learn what you actually use.
Are the discounts on renewals too?
Almost never. Budget for the full renewal price from year two, and check it before you buy. Perfmatters is a rare exception, with 15% off renewals automatically.
We will update this page as the remaining 2026 sales are announced, including OptinMonster’s real percentages on November 9 and Yoast’s dates. Deals were verified on vendor pages on November 6, 2026. Prices are in USD and can change; the price at checkout is the one that counts.
