Ask HN: Shopify for SaaS?

10 pointsby funerralmost 2 years ago
I have many ideas for SaaS products, but the extra work I need to put in with User management, Payments, Compliance and such beg the question is there is already a solution that takes care of that so I could focus on my core business?<p>PS. It would be amazing if I don&#x27;t need to opt-in for Stripe because it doesn&#x27;t work in my country.

Have a look at Frontegg. Has everything you&#x27;re looking for. <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;frontegg.com" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;frontegg.com</a>

You’re probably looking for a Merchant of Record like Paddle, FastSpring, and so on. Payment, privacy, and tax compliance instantly in basically every jurisdiction. At the end of each month you’ll get paid in a single transfer. Read their Terms first, though–I am still debating whether going global in a weekend outweighs the legal exposure.

You need Lago:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.getlago.com&#x2F;">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.getlago.com&#x2F;</a> <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=34773442" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=34773442</a>

You could completely handoff your merchant responsibilities to another party like Paddle who’s a Merchant of Record (they handle billing, chargebacks, etc).<p>Downside is you lose control of your customer relationship.

I would recommend something like Outseta. I used this for a year or so before building my own complete site with Ruby on Rails. <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.outseta.com&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.outseta.com&#x2F;</a>
