The Stan Store Alternative That Puts Your Brand First
ExclusiveLink is the Stan Store alternative for creators who want the storefront without the template sameness: gated and paid links on your own custom domain, full click analytics, and 0% platform fees on Pro at $49 a month.
01Credit where due
Stan Store proved the model. Then it stopped moving.
Stan showed thousands of coaches and creators that a bio link can be a checkout. The frustrations start after the first invoice.
The price is the first shock: $29 a month for the basic tier, $99 for the features most sellers actually need. That is real money for a page whose layout you barely control, because the second frustration is the templates. Every Stan page has the same stacked-button look, the same fonts, the same coach-economy energy. When your program costs $500, looking like every other seller is a conversion problem.
Third, the address. Your store lives on Stan's URL, and brand control stops at a profile photo and a color. You are building your business on a page that markets Stan as much as it markets you.
And because Stan is a storefront first, the linking side is an afterthought: no serious per-link analytics, no scheduled or expiring links, nothing for the ninety percent of your bio traffic that is not ready to buy today.
02The difference
Keep the storefront, get your brand back
Your own domain
From Pro, your page lives at links.yourname.com with no platform badge anywhere. Clients see your brand from the first tap to the receipt.
Sell and nurture on one page
Price the program, gate the lead magnet behind an email, schedule the cohort link to open and close on time. Checkout and funnel, not checkout only.
Numbers you can act on
Per-link clicks and revenue by day, source and country. See which reel filled the cohort, not just that it filled.
The mechanics of email gates and paid unlocks are covered in the gated content guide, and every plan is itemized on the link in bio pricing page.
03Side by side
ExclusiveLink vs Stan Store, honestly
Stan's checkout is genuinely smooth and it takes no cut of sales. What you are paying $29 to $99 for is the storefront, and only the storefront.
| What matters | ExclusiveLink | Stan Store |
|---|---|---|
| Pricing | $19 to $149/mo | $29 or $99/mo |
| Fees on your sales | 0% on Pro and above, 2% on Creator | No platform fee, subscription only |
| Page design | Your brand, your accent, no badge | Rigid templates, recognizably Stan |
| Gated and paid links | Prices, email gates, scheduling, expiry | Paid products, little gating or scheduling |
| Analytics depth | Per-link clicks and revenue, UTM, geo, device | Sales metrics, thin link analytics |
| Custom domain | Included from Pro, $49/mo | Weak domain and brand control |
Comparing more than these two? The full field is on the best link in bio app page.
04A coach's month
A $79 program, run from the bio link
A fitness coach sells a $79 eight-week program. On Stan's $99 tier, forty sales a month is $3,160 gross, minus the $99 subscription, on a template page at a Stan URL. On ExclusiveLink Pro, the same forty sales cost $49 a month with 0% fees, and the program sells from links.hercoaching.com.
That is $600 a year in subscription savings, and the bigger gains are quieter: the email-gated nutrition starter captures the followers who were not ready to buy, and the analytics show that Tuesday reels fill the program twice as fast as Saturday posts.
Forty sales, two platforms
| Program price | $79 |
| Sales per month | 40 |
| Gross revenue | $3,160 |
| Stan Store Creator Pro | -$99/mo |
| ExclusiveLink Pro | -$49/mo |
| Emails captured by the gated freebie | 180/mo |
| Yearly subscription saved | $600 |
05Before you switch
What Stan sellers ask us
Stan takes no cut either. So why move? True, and we say so above. You move for the $50 a month, the domain, the gating and scheduling, and a page that does not look like every other coach's.
Will my clients notice a new checkout? They will notice it is on your domain. Unlocks and purchases happen on your page, in your brand, with nothing to relearn.
Can I run both while I test? Yes. Put ExclusiveLink in the bio, keep Stan live for a month, and let the per-link numbers make the call.
Your brand first
The storefront was never the problem. The sameness was.
