Castiron is free forever. We’re proud to always offer a free tier for culinary artisans to use to run their businesses.
Castiron only makes money when you make money. We offer a flexible fee structure, where you have the option to absorb the 10% convenience fee yourself, pass it on to your customer, or split the fee with your customer. This fee allows us to continuously improve Castiron and add new features to make your life easier. This fee is separate from Stripe’s 2.9% + $0.30 per transaction payment processing fee. We share an in-depth breakdown of our fees here.
We use Stripe's payment processing infrastructure to accept payments and ensure timely payouts to your bank account. Stripe will transfer money directly to your bank account.
