Yes, you can play videos on Wix. You can either upload them directly from your computer, or embed them from YouTube or Vimeo. To upload a video from your computer, click the “Add” button on the left-hand side of the Wix Editor. Then, click “Video” and select “Upload Video.”

Choose the file from your computer and click “Open.” Once the video is uploaded, you can add it to your website by clicking the “Add to Site” button. To embed a video from YouTube or Vimeo, click the “Add” button on the left-hand side of the Wix Editor. Then, click “Video” and select “YouTube/Vimeo.” Enter the URL of the video you want to embed and click “OK.”

PRO TIP: While Wix does allow you to upload videos to your website, there are some limitations to consider before doing so. First and foremost, Wix does not allow you to host videos on their servers- you must use a third-party video hosting service such as YouTube or Vimeo. Secondly, there is no guarantee that your video will be compatible with all browsers and devices. Finally, videos can significantly slow down the loading speed of your website.
