Ask HN: Off the shelf user management and subscription product?

2 pointsby monkey26about 3 years ago
I&#x27;ve created a new server that is showing some promise but will need to manager users, and even subscriptions to move forward. Currently its just a Rust backend and an Angular frontend, no logins, etc.<p>Is there anything off the shelf that can help, 1) user management and 2) subscriptions? I&#x27;d rather not get too bogged down in these details myself.<p>I know there are services like Auth0 to help with the authentication (social signon and 2fa are a must), and Stripe for payments, but anything a little more integrated from the start?<p>It would be OK if I had to run something like a Python application beside mine for user management.<p>Thanks.

Funny that you mentioned Stripe. IIRC the Subscriptions feature can help with the recurrent payment and subscription management out of the box pretty well.<p>The user management can be a bit tricky through, but I think using their customer portal is also an option, I believed Stripe support enough basic function like CRUD subscription plan, payment method, billing. But this will be highly depended on your use-case.<p>Maybe you should also consider using the subscription webhooks with your Rust backend for more custom logic.

You&#x27;re on a good track looking at solutions like Auth0 and Stripe. They&#x27;re both pretty easy to implement and integrating them together isn&#x27;t too bad.<p>A few companies have tried to be the all in one SaaS provider (auth + payments + etc), but I haven&#x27;t seen one succeed or become prevalent. I suspect it&#x27;s a combination of a few factors:<p>1) The individual providers like Auth0, Stripe, and their competition are pretty good already so there isn&#x27;t a huge pain point.<p>2) As a company grows, there is business value in being able to switch third party providers for a variety of factors such as missing features and cost savings. Having everything tied into one platform makes this much harder.

Outseta might be what you are looking for? I&#x27;m not affiliated with them, I have my own product PriceWell but we only integrate Stripe and you&#x27;d have to use something like Auth0 for user authentication.
