FWIW the very vast majority of our users are integrated with either Adyen, Braintree, or Stripe (all open-source plugins). I know of ~20 integrations with more advanced gateways/processors: these are closed-source plugins, but the over

Kill Bill (note: I'm a co-founder) provides payment routing capabilities, so you can integrate with multiple providers (e.g. Stripe + Adyen) and shift payment traffic to go through one or the other dynamically. This is very common in l

It sounds like you are looking for an entitlement system[1]? In my experience, none of the SaaS providers mentioned help you with this, probably because it's very dependent on your product and business logic. Even with Kill Bill, which

I'll echo what others said: run your own. Using a SaaS-based recurring billing solution has its drawbacks: * You are limited by the features offered by the provider for your pricing schemes (for example, most only offer basic forms of
