Why switch from Bakesy?
Bakesy is not broken, and switching has a cost. Bakers usually look at Confita for three practical reasons:
- Billing: Confita matches Bakesy Standard at $9.99/month but adds a $49/year annual plan; Bakesy lists monthly billing only, and Premium is $17.99/month.
- Where you work: Confita runs in the browser on any device. Bakesy is centered on its seller app.
- What happens after the request: both tools support custom questions. Confita turns the answers into a private quote and deposit flow with connected Square or Stripe checkout, plus instructions and receipt upload for manual methods.
Full design control without upgrading to Premium
Confita includes themes, colors, covers, fonts, banners, stickers, and entrance animations in a live editor. Bakesy also supports storefront customization, with additional themes and style controls listed under Premium.
If the shop itself is part of your brand, Confita gives you more room to make it yours. You can build from any phone, tablet, or computer, then start Pro only when you are ready to publish.
Make the switch for the quote workflow
Bakesy supports custom questions and inspiration photos. Confita’s difference is the handoff after the request: review the details, send a private quote link, collect the deposit through Square, Stripe, or a manual method, and keep the status in the same order flow.
The card payment is recorded in your connected Stripe or Square account. The provider handles payouts to your linked bank under your settings. Confita never holds the funds. Confita adds no fee: card payments run through your own connected Stripe or Square account, so you settle directly with your customer.

Switch in an afternoon
You do not need to move the whole business at once. Recreate your main products, send yourself a test order, and share the new link with a few regular customers first.
| Step | Action |
|---|---|
| 1 | Add your top 5–10 products. |
| 2 | Add your custom questions, connect Square or Stripe, and set any manual payment instructions. |
| 3 | Set pickup windows, delivery details, or drop limits. |
| 4 | Send yourself a test order. |
| 5 | Move your bio link when the flow feels right. |
A small menu is an afternoon, not a migration project
There is no automatic Bakesy product importer, so plan to recreate your products manually. For a small menu, that is usually an afternoon of work. Your customers do not install anything, so there is no customer account or app migration to manage.
Stay on Bakesy if…
Stay if you prefer the seller app, use inventory and revenue reporting every week, rely on calendar sync, or already have a workflow that works.
- You prefer a phone app over a browser tab.
- You use inventory, reporting, or calendar tools every week.
- Your current order flow works and the price fits your business.
Switch to Confita if…
Switch if you want an annual plan, access from any device, full design control, bilingual storefronts, weekly drops, and a clearer quote-and-deposit handoff.
- You want one flat annual price instead of monthly billing.
- You want to work from any phone, tablet, or computer.
- You want full storefront design control.
- You sell in Spanish and English.
- Custom quotes and deposits are part of every week.
Test the workflow before you move your link

Frequently asked questions
What is the best Bakesy alternative?
If you want a browser-based workflow and more storefront control, Confita is the clearest alternative. It covers the storefront, custom questions, quotes, and deposits for $49/year or $9.99/month. If you want another dedicated seller app, Confita is not that product: it runs in the browser.
Can I use Confita on my phone and computer?
Yes. Confita works in the browser on phones, tablets, and computers. Customers also order through a browser link.
Do I lose my Bakesy customers when I switch?
No. Customers do not install anything. Test the new shop with a few regular customers, then move your bio link when the order flow feels right.
Can I import products from Bakesy?
Not automatically. Confita does not currently have a Bakesy product importer, so you recreate your main products manually. For a small menu, that is usually an afternoon of work.
What happens to Bakesy payments?
Bakesy supports out-of-app methods and optional Bakesy Secure Payments. Its Secure Payments fee is published at 3.9% + $0.30 per US card transaction. Confita connects an existing Square seller account or eligible Stripe account and adds no fee of its own; the payment goes straight to you. Provider fees still apply.
Should I switch if Bakesy already works?
Not necessarily. Stay if the app, inventory, reporting, calendar, and support fit your business. Switch when the price, device access, design control, or quote workflow matters more.
