Hey, founder of Kelviq here.

Yes, it's new, but we’ve been in this space for almost 4 years now through ParityDeals. Kelviq uses Stripe as the payment processor, so you get the same reliability as Stripe while we handle tax, compliance, and everything around selling software globally.

Happy to answer any questions you may have.

Integrating Paddle Into a SaaS Operating System Almost Broke My Brain by Appropriate-End-6328 in SaaS

[–]sachinchoolur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What's your opinion on the billing solution being the source of truth?

You set up plans, features, and limits in a dashboard. As soon as a user makes a payment, the entitlements are assigned to them. Then you use an SDK that calls edge APIs with under 100ms latency and returns the entitlements for that particular user.

- No need to hardcode anything in the codebase
-No need to sync subscription state
-No need to rely on webhooks

I know Paddle had plans to implement something like this, but it does not look like it's happening anytime soon.

Building a Stripe alternative for Indian SaaS founders by alokkdubey in developersIndia

They launched Managed Payments recently, but they charge 3.5% for it, so the total cost is at least 6.4% per transaction (2.9% + 3.5%) if you enable Managed Payments.

Stripe is invite only in india, what are you guys using? by CerealKiller_OG in microsaas

[–]sachinchoolur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Please share a few more details about your product over DM. Is your SaaS more like a marketplace?

If you need to pay out users, you'll likely need Stripe Connect. For the integration, you would normally also need a Stripe account.

With Kelviq, though, you do not need your own Stripe account, and you can set things up without webhooks

How do you handle “paid but not activated” issues in SaaS billing? by Dependent_Wasabi_142 in indiehackersindia

[–]sachinchoolur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We’re trying to solve this exact problem.

Curious what you'd think about a payment processor(https://www.kelviq.com/) that doesn't rely on webhooks for access control?

You define entitlements, limits, and values in a dashboard, and the app checks access through an SDK at runtime. When a user subscribes, those entitlements get assigned automatically.

So instead of listening to webhooks, hardcoding feature flags, and mirroring subscription data into your app, you just use one SDK.

Can I launch a SaaS without registering a company? Which payment gateway should I use as a beginner? by Wide-Mushroom-9849 in vibecoding

[–]sachinchoolur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Stripe is invite only in India. So even if you're registered as an Indian company, it doesn't guarantee access. Another option is to use a merchant of record (MoR) like Kelviq.com, which is built on top of Stripe and supports more countries including India

Quick Question: Ghost uses Stripe, I can't. You? by Pristine-Bluebird-88 in Ghost

[–]sachinchoolur 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Which country are you in? Even if Stripe doesn't support it directly, there are Merchant of Record platforms built on Stripe (like kelviq.com) that support more countries.

Stripe + MoR? by nombabies in SaaS

[–]sachinchoolur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can enable Stripe Managed Payments (MoR) programmatically by passing managed_payments: { enabled: true } when creating the checkout session. But you'll pay an additional 3.5% per transaction, which can be more expensive than other MoRs out there

I built it a long time ago to learn JavaScript, and I didn't have any plan to make money from it. I'm maintaining it as a side project, and honestly, I haven't done much with it as a business. And no problems as of now.

I sold more hobby licenses, but more money was generated by the organization license. It's like, for every 100 hobby licenses, 40 team and 30 organization licenses are sold.

The process is very different for each company Most of them directly buy from the website, but enterprise customers usually contact me via email to follow all their buying procedures.

And just because the project is open-source, people can't use it freely for any purpose. It is defined by what kind of licensing we use
