Payments & Billing
Take payments and run subscriptions.
The real question is whether you want to be the merchant of record. Stripe and Square leave sales tax, VAT and chargeback paperwork sitting with you, in return for control. Paddle, FastSpring, Lemon Squeezy and Polar take that liability off your books and charge for it. Taking money in person is a separate shortlist entirely: Square, SumUp, Zettle.
Editor's pick
Selling software across borders with nobody doing finance? Start at Paddle or Lemon Squeezy — the tax handling buys back real time. If you have engineers and a domestic customer base, Stripe.
