Where Insidemetics differs
- Buyers in India can pay by UPI, cards and netbanking through your own Razorpay account, in rupees.
- Instagram Auto DM on every plan, with unlimited DMs.
Stan Store may suit you better if…
- You want Stripe checkout. We use PayPal, plus Razorpay for buyers in India.
- You want a longer trial: Stan's is 14 days, ours is 7.
Moving from Stan Store
- Sign up, start your 7-day trial and pick your link, for example insidemetics.com/yourname. Add your photo, bio and social accounts.
- Recreate your products: upload the same PDFs, add your course lessons, or set your call slots and prices.
- Connect PayPal (and Razorpay for buyers in India) so buyers pay you directly. Free downloads work without it.
- Keep your Stan Store page live until your Insidemetics store is ready, then swap the link in your Instagram, YouTube and WhatsApp bios.
- Tell your past buyers where to find you now; their earlier purchases stay where they bought them.
