CardelvsStan Store is a link-in-bio store for courses, downloads, calls, and memberships. Cardel is a site, audience, shop, bookings, and inbox on your own domain.
Stan Store makes selling from your bio link almost effortless. Digital downloads, courses, coaching calls with booking, memberships, and lead magnets sit on one mobile-first page with checkout, plus email marketing and funnels on the higher plan. For a creator selling to social followers on their phone, it removes nearly every step.
Cardel provides a home for your craft. Share and sell your work, grow your audience, and bring your community together on a site of your own. Cardel does not host courses, deliver downloads, or run memberships; the Shop sells items you fulfill.
Stan is a page at stan.store/you. Cardel is a site on your domain: blog, Showcase, Shop, Videos, Schedule, with SEO and reader comments.
Stan emails from its platform. Cardel sends and receives on your own domain and gathers replies, chat, and forms in a Messaging Center.
Stan books calls with payment. Cardel books with Google Calendar and Outlook Calendar sync; you invoice through the Shop.
Choose Stan Store when you sell downloads, courses, and calls to a social audience and want one link that does it all.
Choose Cardel when you want a home you own with site, audience, shop or bookings, and inbox in one place.
