Eden vs Carrd

When your one-page site needs to start selling.

Carrd is a great way to get a clean one-page site up for almost nothing. Eden is for when that page has to sell. The checkout sits on the page, signups land on your email list, and the next page in the funnel is one click away.

The short version

Checked November 12, 2026

Carrd makes simple one-page sites from $9 a year, with forms, a custom domain, and payment buttons on Pro Standard at $19 a year. For a clean landing page, nothing costs less. Eden costs more, from $29 a month plus 5%, and is built to sell. You get a checkout on the page, order bumps, an email list, funnels with a thank-you page, and the products themselves, with one-click upsells on Pro. Pick Carrd for a simple site. Pick Eden when the site is how you make money.

01 · Checkout

People buy without leaving the page.

  • Checkout on the page. Add a checkout part and pick the product. The price, sales, and access come from your store.

  • Order bumps and upsells. Add a bump on Starter. Offer up to 3 one-click upsells after checkout on Pro.

  • A thank-you page after. Send buyers to your own page after they pay, with the next step on it.

02 · Your list

Signups land on your own list.

  • No form to connect. A signup on any page joins your Eden email list, with the welcome emails you already set up.

  • Email them from the same place. Broadcasts to 10,000 contacts on Starter, and sequences with 50,000 on Pro.

  • Works alongside your newsletter. Already on Substack, Kit, beehiiv, or GoHighLevel? Keep sending from there and let Eden run the pages and the store.

03 · More than one page

A website with a menu.

  • Home, About, and Shop. Build a site with a menu and footer at your handle, or on your own domain from Starter.

  • Funnels with steps. Free guide, sales page, webinar, launch, coaching application, and video sales letter templates.

  • Your link in bio stays. Turn on Home and your store link opens your site. Your link in bio moves to /bio.

04 · Build it with AI

Tell it the goal, get the pages.

  • It reads your store first. The Site Builder looks at your products and prices, then asks a few short questions.

  • It can copy your Carrd. Give it the link to your Carrd site. It reads it, saves its pictures, and builds to match its look with your words.

  • Everything starts as a draft. Look it over, change anything, and publish when it's ready.

I'm using 5% of the potential of the app and the value is already there. I signed up mostly to schedule Substack posts. A few days in: this thing combines Notion, Buffer, GPT Plus, Stan Store. I can finally narrow my focus on one tool.

With Eden everything I need is in one space. Before, any creative efforts were dependent on multiple apps. From Day 1 when Eden helped me dial in my voice, I felt heard - and that clarity opened things up for me, and that I could more easily move forward with sharing my vision.
