What we found
Some Castiron domains currently show an active seller platform, while castiron.me shows unrelated casino content. We cannot confirm a shutdown, but inconsistent domains create a real customer problem: someone clicking an old link may not reach your bakery.
The practical fix is to create a backup shop link you control and update every place where the old link appears.
- Open the exact link in your Instagram bio and customer messages.
- Check QR codes, flyers, pinned posts, and saved replies.
- Ask one trusted customer to open the link on their phone.
The fee difference
A new shop link your customers can trust
Confita gives you a single link with your products, questions, and payment instructions. Customers open it in any browser, so there is no app to install and no account for them to create.
Before you share it, shape the storefront with themes, colors, covers, fonts, banners, entrance animations, and live preview. The new link should feel like your bakery, not a temporary patch.
Rebuild the important parts first
You do not need to redesign everything before you can accept requests. Start with the products and questions that matter most, then improve the presentation as you go.
- Add your main products with photos and prices.
- Ask for date, servings, flavors, allergies, and reference images.
- Write your payment instructions once: a card-payment link, bank transfer, or cash.
- Add quote and deposit instructions for custom work.
- Update your bio, QR codes, flyers, and saved replies with the new link.
Deposits without a platform commission
For custom work, send a private quote link with the price, deposit, payment instructions, and receipt upload. The customer can return to the status page to see what is paid and what remains.
Confita never touches the money. Customers pay you directly through the payment method you choose, and Confita takes 0% commission.
A simple recovery checklist
Once your new shop is ready, send the link to a few regular customers first. Then replace the old URL everywhere customers might find it.
| Step | Action |
|---|---|
| 1 | Build your main products and storefront. |
| 2 | Test the link from a phone and a computer. |
| 3 | Send it to a few trusted customers. |
| 4 | Replace the old link in your bio, QR codes, flyers, and saved messages. |

Frequently asked questions
Is Castiron closed?
We cannot confirm that. The Castiron seller site currently shows product and pricing pages, while castiron.me shows unrelated casino content. If your customer-facing link is broken or confusing, create a reliable replacement and update it everywhere.
Why does my Castiron link show something unexpected?
Castiron has more than one public domain, and those domains may not currently show the same destination. Test the exact URL your customers use on both a phone and a computer before relying on it.
What fees does Castiron charge?
Castiron’s current pricing page lists a 10% transaction fee on its free plan. Its paid plans list $18/month when billed annually or $24/month monthly, plus a 3% transaction fee. Confirm current terms before subscribing.
Does Confita take a transaction commission?
No. Confita is $4.99/month or $39/year flat, with 0% Confita commission. Customers pay you directly through the method you choose.
Can customers order without an app?
Yes. Customers open your shop in the browser from a phone, tablet, or computer. They do not need to install an app or create a Confita account to send a request.
How quickly can I rebuild my shop?
If you already have photos and prices, start with your five to fifteen most important products. Add the new link to your bio and saved replies after testing it with a few regular customers.
