Questions

Does Carrd have checkout or PIX?

No. Carrd is a page builder: it doesn't process payments. To sell you have to embed a third-party checkout (Stripe, Gumroad, PayPal) by hand, and even then there's no PIX, the most-used method in Brazil. On Pagely's Bio Store, the product block leads to a page with native PIX (via Asaas) and card (via Stripe) checkout, with nothing to wire up.

Is Pagely's Bio Store like Carrd's link-in-bio?

Similar in the goal of gathering links, but it goes further: alongside link blocks (WhatsApp, Instagram, TikTok, email) the Bio Store has product blocks with photo, struck price and discount. Each product sends the buyer to a page with PIX and card checkout. On Carrd you can hand-build a link-in-bio, but without checkout or PIX the sale doesn't happen there.

Is Carrd cheaper than Pagely?

On subscription, yes: Carrd costs US$ 9 to US$ 49 per year and charges no commission, because the checkout is yours. Pagely's Bio Store is free (1 per user; extra store R$ 39), no monthly fee, and charges 3.90% + the gateway fee per sale. The difference isn't just price: Carrd gives you a page and Pagely gives you the bio link with Brazilian payments already working. If you just want a page and already have a checkout, Carrd is cheaper.

How much does the Bio Store cost?

The first Bio Store is free (1 per user). An extra store costs R$ 39 (PIX in Brazil, or US$ 9 / € 8 by card outside Brazil). No monthly fee: Pagely charges 3.90% + the gateway fee only when you sell.

What's the real difference between Carrd and Pagely?

Carrd is a builder for generic pages (portfolio, link-in-bio, form) with total layout freedom. Pagely gives you the Bio Store (a bio link with link and product blocks) plus product pages generated from the photo by AI, with PIX/card checkout, shipping and a custom domain on the LPs. Carrd builds the page; Pagely builds the store that sells.

Does Pagely bring me traffic?

No. Neither Pagely nor Carrd brings traffic: both are the destination. You drive the customer via your Instagram bio, Meta/TikTok ads or WhatsApp. The difference is that on your Bio Store the customer finds your links AND your products, with PIX checkout one click away; on Carrd they depend on the external checkout you wired up.

Can I sell physical products on Carrd?

You can build the page, but Carrd has no shipping or rate calculation: you'd handle it all elsewhere. Pagely has Melhor Envio integrated, so you calculate and issue shipping inside the platform, alongside checkout.
