What Canva costs in 2026
Canva sells Pro expressly for a single person; for several users there is Business. The prices:
| Plan | per year | per month | People | Includes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Canva Free | €0 | €0 | 1 | 1 million+ templates, 5 GB storage, core tools |
| Canva Pro | €110 | €9.17 | 1 | 100 GB storage, 5 brand kits, background remover, Magic Resize, AI tools, 141 million premium assets |
| Canva Business | €170 per person | €14.17 | from 1 | as Pro, plus team management, shared folders, approvals |
| Canva for Education | €0 | €0 | classes | Pro features for verified teachers and schools |
On the monthly plan Pro is dearer than on the annual plan; Canva shows the exact figure per account.
What GamsGo charges for Canva – and what you get
GamsGo lists the offer as “Education (shared)”. You receive the credentials of an account that is a member of a Canva for Education team. Pro features are included there; Canva provides them to schools free of charge. The terms:
| Term | Total | per month |
|---|---|---|
| 1 month | €3.99 | €3.99 |
| 12 months | €35.99 | €3.00 |
According to GamsGo the access runs on PC and Mac; the mobile apps are not mentioned.
Why the education account is the catch
Canva grants education accounts free of charge to verified teachers and schools. A seat in such a team is not meant for resale, and Canva re-verifies education accounts regularly. If the team is caught, every member loses access at the same time – along with every design stored there. With Adobe or Microsoft, GamsGo sells seats in regularly paid plans; here it is an account that really belongs to a school. GamsGo does replace failed access for the remaining term, but that does not bring your designs back.
The arithmetic side by side
| Route | per month | per year | risk |
|---|---|---|---|
| Canva Business, 1 person | €14.17 | €170 | none |
| Canva Pro, annual | €9.17 | €110 | none |
| Shared education account on GamsGo | €3.00 | €35.99 | high, see above |
| Canva Free | €0 | €0 | none, but without Pro tools |
€74 a year saved against Pro – that is a lot. But unlike music or series, with Canva your work lives inside the account. A suspended account costs you not just access but your files.
Which route fits
- You occasionally design posts, invitations, presentations? Canva Free is enough. The background remover and Magic Resize are missing; everything else is there.
- You work for clients or your own business? Pro at €110 a year. Your designs are yours, brand kits included, no suspension risk.
- You need Pro tools for a single project? One month of GamsGo at €3.99 – export the designs as PDF and PNG at the end, and the potential loss is manageable.
- You are a teacher or student? Apply for Canva for Education officially, free and legitimate.
What you accept with a shared account
- Someone else’s account, someone else’s designs. Every team member sees designs stored in team folders. Confidential client drafts have no place there.
- Education labelling. The account is run as a school account; some functions such as selling through Canva Print or brand approvals are restricted.
- No entitlement to tools. Canva can change the feature set of education accounts at any time, independently of GamsGo.
- Terms of use. Education accounts are reserved for teaching. A breach leads to suspension; it is not a criminal matter.
Frequently asked questions
Do I get all Pro features with the education account?
Largely: background remover, Magic Resize, premium templates and the AI tools are included. Quotas for AI features may differ.
Can I take my designs with me when access ends?
Only as exports. Editable Canva files cannot be moved to another account, except via a share link while the account is alive.
Isn’t Canva Pro available at a discount?
Canva gives Pro free to non-profits and to students through their universities. Everyone else pays list price; promotions usually appear towards the end of the year.
What about Canva Teams?
The old plan is now called Business and costs €170 per person per year. Sharing is built in there, but every person pays.
Other software and platforms
With Adobe Creative Cloud the price gap is larger and the seat is part of a paid plan; with Microsoft 365 the official Family plan beats the platform. Spliiit, Sharesub, GoSplit and CooSub work in a similar way to GamsGo. All services with prices are in our GamsGo overview.
