Hey PH, PayCan Credit is an open source integration that adds credit based payments to SaaS and AI apps in ~10 lines of code. A while back I created PayCan, and several folks mentioned that what they really needed for their AI side projects was a simple credit and token system, so they wouldn't have to keep writing custom wallet ledgers, balance checks, and top-up popups from scratch.
I changed it to a credit engine. It handles user balances, safe token deductions on the backend, and gives you a clean drop-in modal where users can check their balance, view usage history, etc Repo: https://github.com/gatewayhubs/p... Demo: https://paycan-credit.hyp.app
Since this whole update came directly from community suggestions, I m really eager to hear your thoughts: Does this match how you usually manage tokens/credits in your apps? What feels missing, clunky, or overcomplicated?
Any feedback, blunt critique, or suggestions would mean the world to me. I'll be hanging out in the comments all day to answer questions!
Integrating payments into your AI or SaaS app shouldn’t take weeks. With PayCan, you can add subscription and credit-based payment flows in just ~10 lines of code.
If you re building a SaaS or a side-project, setting up payments usually means hours of dealing with webhook routing, customer sync logic, and getting locked into one provider.
I built Paycan to fix this. It s an open-source, self-hosted checkout layer.
No Vendor Lock-in: Switch between Stripe and PayPal without changing your database or application logic (more local payment providers soon).
Drop-in Simple: Around 10 lines of code to integrate.
Self-Hosted & AGPLv3: You run it on your own server, keeping full control over your checkout.
