Pricing
Free to try it. $9 to work in it.
Every plan runs the same real WordPress. What you pay for is time and room: how long a sandbox lives, and how many you keep running at once.

Choosing
Pick by the job, not by the price
You need it for the next twenty minutes
- Reproduce a bug on a clean install before you file the ticket
- Check whether two plugins really do conflict
- Show a client the theme instead of a screenshot of it
Free Β· Gone in 2 hours
The work spans a couple of days
- Retest a release across PHP versions without rebuilding the site each time
- Keep a QA site, a client demo and a scratch site open side by side
- Put a launch URL in your README so readers land in a live copy
$9/month Β· 3 sandboxes Β· 2 days each
A whole team is testing at once
- One sandbox per client, per branch, or per support ticket
- A week is long enough to carry a release through review
- Ten running at the same time without queueing for a slot
$29/month Β· 10 sandboxes Β· 7 days each
For developers
Turn your README into a live demo
Add a "Try on WPRun" button to your plugin README or docs. Visitors land in a real WordPress sandbox instead of a long install guide.

The questions the table doesn't answer
- Is the free plan a trial?
- No. There is no trial clock, no card on file and no upgrade wall at the end of it. Create an account and the free plan stays free β each sandbox simply expires after two hours.
- What exactly does paying change?
- Two numbers and one feature: how long a sandbox lives before it is deleted, how many you can keep running at the same time, and launch URLs for your README. The WordPress itself is identical on every plan β same container, same versions, same wp-admin.
- Why does a sandbox expire at all?
- Because each one is a real container with PHP-FPM, MySQL and its own disk, not a preview inside your browser tab. The timer is what keeps the free plan free and instantly available. Pro stretches it to two days, Agency to a week.
- Can I cancel?
- Yes, at any time, from your account. Billing stops at the end of the current month and your sandboxes keep running until then. After that they expire like free ones β export anything you want to keep.
- Can I get a refund?
- Yes. Every paid plan carries a 14-day money-back guarantee: if it doesn't fit, write to us within 14 days of a charge and we refund it in full β no questions asked.
- What happens to everything on a sandbox?
- It is deleted along with the sandbox. That is the point: every run starts from a clean install and leaves nothing behind. Export whatever you want to keep before the timer ends.
- Who can open my sandbox?
- Anyone with the link. The site URL is built to be shared, while wp-admin asks for the generated credentials. Treat a sandbox as public and keep real customer data out of it.
- Can I run a live site on this?
- No. Sandboxes are disposable by design β testing, QA, demos, teaching, bug reports. For a site that has to stay up, you want hosting.
You can decide after it's running
One click and a real WordPress is up in a few seconds. When two hours stops being enough, Pro is nine dollars away.
