Does Cabana let me sell digital products like Stan Store?

Cabana's focus is brand-deal management, not a digital-product storefront. If selling courses or downloads is your core business, a store tool like Stan is a better fit for that piece. Cabana complements it by running the brand-partnership side as a tracked, paid pipeline.

How do payments work on Cabana?

Through Stripe, approval-gated. You approve a deal, then send an instant checkout link or a formal net-terms invoice; the money routes straight to your bank, with Cabana's flat plan fee and Stripe processing withheld and itemized on your ledger.

Where Cabana Studio and Stan Store differ

Stan Store is a creator storefront, strongest at selling digital products, courses, and coaching through a simple link.

Cabana Studio is for the other half of the creator economy: brand deals. It turns each brand inquiry into a tracked deal, handles payments you approve and net-terms invoices, reads contracts for you, and runs your Growth Brain, the engine that learns your business and surfaces the next move - so the money from partnerships is managed as carefully as the money from your store.
