Is JupiterX worth it if I already use Elementor?
JupiterX is a $58 multipurpose WordPress and WooCommerce theme from artbees with 184,133 sales and a 4.76 rating from around 6,900 buyers. Formerly sold as Jupiter, version 4 sets out to replace Elementor Pro rather than depend on it: theme builder, theme styles, custom code and dozens of native widgets are built into the theme.
Best for: an Elementor user who resents paying for Elementor Pro every year
The JupiterX WordPress theme has sold 184,133 copies at a 4.76 rating and serves more than 180,000 users. It is worth knowing up front that artbees renamed the product: what ThemeForest sold for years as Jupiter is now listed as JupiterX, and version 4 landed on 13 August 2026.
Built to replace Elementor Pro, not to need it
To begin with, this is the pitch that separates JupiterX from every other Elementor-based theme here. artbees built native alternatives to the features you would otherwise pay Elementor Pro for: a theme builder, theme styles, custom code and dozens of widgets that Elementor keeps behind its subscription. Consequently, the $58 is a one-off rather than the first payment in an annual cycle. To be precise, the free version of Elementor is still required – JupiterX replaces Pro, not Elementor itself.
A closer look at the JupiterX demo
Five builders in one theme
Meanwhile, the theme ships a layout builder, header builder, footer builder, form builder and popup builder. In addition, dynamic content and motion effects are handled natively rather than through add-ons. As a result, a typical agency stack of theme plus Pro plus a widgets pack plus a popup plugin collapses into one purchase.
Two themes for one price
Furthermore, buying JupiterX also unlocks the legacy Jupiter 6 theme. That matters if you maintain older client sites built on Jupiter before the X rewrite – the same licence covers both, so you are not stuck choosing between updating and rebuilding.
WooCommerce handled in the same interface
Notably, the WooCommerce builder covers shop, product, cart and checkout layouts inside the same visual editor as the rest of the site. In short, you are not dropping into template files for the shop, which is where most multipurpose themes get awkward.
What to watch out for
However, the version history is a genuine hazard. This theme has been Jupiter, then Jupiter X, then X2, X3 and now X4, and a large amount of tutorial content online refers to versions that no longer behave the same way. Additionally, the native widgets are artbees code, so pages built with them are tied to this theme – the same lock-in you get from any proprietary builder, just arriving through a different door.
Key features:
- Native theme builder, theme styles and custom code – replaces Elementor Pro
- Layout, header, footer, form and popup builders
- Dozens of native widgets beyond free Elementor
- WooCommerce builder for shop and checkout layouts
- Dynamic content and motion effects built in
- Legacy Jupiter 6 theme included with the licence
- ReactJS-based admin interface
- WPML, WPForms, Gravity Forms and bbPress compatible

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Jupiter the same theme as JupiterX?
Effectively yes – artbees renamed and rebuilt it. The ThemeForest listing that was Jupiter is now JupiterX, and buying it also unlocks the legacy Jupiter 6 theme for older sites.
Does JupiterX replace Elementor Pro?
It replaces most of it. The theme builder, theme styles, custom code and dozens of native widgets cover what Pro normally sells. The free version of Elementor is still required.
How many sales does JupiterX have?
184,133 at the time of writing, with a 4.76 rating from around 6,900 buyer reviews and more than 180,000 users.
Can I build a WooCommerce store with JupiterX?
Yes. A WooCommerce builder handles shop, product, cart and checkout layouts in the same visual editor as the rest of the site.
Why is $58 cheaper than the other bestsellers?
artbees has priced JupiterX below the $59 to $89 range of the other veteran multipurpose themes. It is the lowest entry price among the long-running bestsellers on this list.
Are old Jupiter tutorials still accurate?
Often not. The theme has been through Jupiter, Jupiter X, X2, X3 and X4, and behaviour changed between them. Prefer artbees’ own current documentation over older third-party guides.
