Panel Reviews
The Builder
Developer Perspective
“Merchant of record handles global tax compliance. The checkout and subscription APIs are clean.”
The Skeptic
Reality Check
“Higher fees than Stripe but not dealing with sales tax across 100+ countries saves real money and headaches.”
The Futurist
Big Picture
“MoR is becoming the default for SaaS. Paddle's checkout conversion optimization is genuinely data-driven.”
Community Sentiment
“Merchant of record model is underrated — never worrying about EU VAT is worth the fees”
“Support is slow but handling tax compliance in 40+ countries automatically is a lifesaver”
“Paddle just handled my first sale to India with correct GST — zero effort on my end”
“Best choice for solo SaaS founders who don't want to think about global tax”
