Frequently Asked Questions
Will my stan.store link stop working after I create a custom domain?
Nope! Your stan.store/username link keeps working even after your custom domain is live.
If I am not on Creator Max and I don't have a Custom Domain, can I forward or redirect my website visitors to my Stan Store?
Yes! You can set up a forwarding rule within your domain hosting site. This will allow you to use your custom domain anywhere you like and automatically redirect visitors to your Stan Store. The process of setting this up depends on your domain hosting site.
The exact steps vary by provider. Here are links to instructions for a few popular platforms:
Why don't I see the option to upgrade to Creator Max to use this feature?
