Movement vs Stan
Outgrowing Stan Store? You’re not alone.
Stan is a great place to start—simple, quick to launch, and designed for creators selling digital products. But as your business grows, so do your needs. If you’re finding it hard to stand out, limited by lack of customization, or piecing together more tools just to deliver a fully branded experience, it might be time for something more powerful.
That’s where Movement comes in. Movement is a fully customizable, all-in-one creator platform that lets you sell digital products and courses, offer 1:1s, run memberships, and create community with your own branded app. Whether you’re scaling offers, building a deeper client experience, or just tired of being limited by a link-in-bio store, Movement gives you the tools (and the flexibility) to grow without limits.
"If you are a creator, Movement is a must-have platform... we used Passion.io, Kajabi and lots of other platforms before deciding to build our own."

Customization to match your brand identity
With Movement, you gain complete creative control over your layout and content–with a beautiful template library being just the start. Customize layouts, branding, fonts, and content to match your business. It’s built to feel like your platform, not ours.
Stan offers basic branding (like profile image and button colors), but every store follows the same layout. You can sell quickly, but there’s little room to make it feel unique or reflect your brand deeply.

Ensure your community is accessible and inclusive
With Movement, you are provided with your own Progressive Web App, which is perhaps the most accessible online platform. PWAs can be accessed on any device with a web browser, including smartphones, tablets, and desktop. This cross-platform compatibility makes them more accessible to a broader audience.
Stan is primarily designed as a mobile-first link-in-bio tool. It works on desktop, but the experience is limited and not optimized like an app. There’s no home-screen app option or desktop-style user interface for immersive content or community.

Courses that go beyond a file download
Movement includes a fully built-in course platform with modules, lessons, drip content, quizzes, and progress tracking—so you can deliver a real learning experience. Everything is integrated into your branded app.
Stan lets you sell digital files and videos, but it doesn’t offer true course features like quizzes, structured modules, or progress tracking. It’s better for simple product delivery than full educational experiences.
