The #1 Stan Store Alternative Built for African TikTokers

Stan Store is incredible for converting social media followers into buyers—if you live in America. If you live in Kenya, the Stripe payout hurdles and the $29/mo fee will cripple your margins. Upgrade to Lacesse.

  • The "Creator Tax" & Payout Hurdles Stan Store costs $29/mo (over KES 4,300) and requires a supported Stripe or PayPal account to withdraw your own money.
  • 1-Tap M-Pesa Checkouts Lacesse Duka gives you the same frictionless checkout experience for a flat KES 499/mo, with funds settling instantly to your M-Pesa.
