Canva Pro vs Business vs Education: Price, Seats and Brand Tools Compared

Canva Pro, Business and Education compared from Canva's official pages: price per person, seats, Brand Kits, AI limits and storage, what happened to Teams, and how to choose.

Short answer: pick Pro if you design on your own; pick Business if a small team needs shared branding, approvals and ad insights; if you teach at a primary or secondary school, check whether you qualify for free Canva Education first. Facts come from Canva's official pages, checked in November 2026 with US prices.

The three plans at a glance

Pro: $144 a year per person, or $12 a month billed yearly; $18 month to month. One person only, with a 30-day free trial.

Business: $250 a year per person, or $20.83 a month billed yearly; $25 month to month. Works for one person or a team billed per seat.

Education: free for verified K-12 teachers, their students and qualifying schools and districts. Students join by teacher invitation.

What Pro includes

Unlimited use of 100+ million premium photos, templates, graphics and videos.

Up to 5 Brand Kits for consistent colours, fonts and logos.

AI tools to expand, resize and remove backgrounds, plus Canva AI copywriting.

What Business adds over Pro

Higher AI limits and advanced generation with Leonardo.Ai.

Up to 100 Brand Kits with locked templates and permissions.

500 GB of storage, approval workflows and real-time team collaboration.

Canva Grow ad analytics, Flourish interactive charts and 10% off print orders.

Education and the end of Teams

Education includes most premium features plus teaching templates, assignment sharing and integrations with Google Classroom, Moodle and other platforms; Canva says it never uses student data to train AI.

Canva Teams is closed to new sign-ups; existing subscribers keep their price and features but do not get Business features.

How to choose

Posters, resumes and social images for yourself: Pro is enough.

A studio or small company sharing brand assets with approvals: Business.

A primary or secondary school teacher: apply for free Education with a school email or proof of employment.
