Storestand vs Carrd

Storestand vs Carrd for an iOS app landing page

Free forever for one site. No credit card required.

Carrd

  • Cheaper — around $19/year versus a free tier and paid plans here
  • More layout freedom: it is a general-purpose canvas for any kind of one-pager
  • Bigger template library across every use case, not just apps
  • Great for a link-in-bio, event, or personal page unrelated to an app

Storestand

  • Paste one App Store link and the site drafts itself — name, icon, screenshots, description, ratings
  • Generates a Privacy Policy and Terms — the URLs App Review requires — and hosts them
  • Serves app-ads.txt at your domain root, exactly where AdMob crawls it
  • Pulls your best App Store reviews into a testimonials section automatically
  • Ships SEO, sitemap and llms.txt with every site; a free subdomain or your own domain with SSL

Privacy & Terms generators

A short questionnaire becomes editable, ready-to-publish legal pages — GDPR, CCPA and COPPA aware.

Ad networks crawl yourdomain.com/app-ads.txt. We serve it exactly there, always in sync.

Social proof on autopilot

Your 4- and 5-star reviews become a testimonials section, pulled straight from the App Store.

The honest verdict

Pick Carrd if you want maximum layout freedom for a general one-pager and don't need the App Store plumbing. Pick Storestand if the site exists to ship an app — you want the privacy policy, app-ads.txt and store import handled, not hand-built.

Frequently asked

Is Storestand more expensive than Carrd?
Storestand is free for one published site, so you can launch at no cost. Carrd starts around $19/year. On Pro, Storestand adds more sites, custom domains and waitlists — but the compliance features that App Review and AdMob require are on the free tier.
Can Carrd host app-ads.txt at my root domain?
Only if your Carrd plan allows uploading a file at the domain root, and you maintain it by hand. Storestand serves app-ads.txt at yourdomain.com/app-ads.txt automatically and keeps it in sync when you edit it — which is exactly where AdMob and other networks crawl.
Does Carrd generate a privacy policy for the App Store?
No. Carrd is a page builder, so you would write or paste your own policy. Storestand generates a GDPR/CCPA/COPPA-aware Privacy Policy and Terms from a short questionnaire and hosts them at the URLs App Store Connect asks for.
