This is so beautiful congrats! I wish EU VAT MOSS was handled by Stripe, without it, I can't use Stripe :(
i just wanted to ask. so this is not handled by stripe? so its also useless for me :(
as far as I know, it doesn't. This is a big pain point for a lot of people and many are switching to FastSpring because it acts as a reseller so you don't have to handle it. There was also a thread on indiehackers opened by a Stripe co-founder and it was mentioned they'd be looking it, but nothing more.
yes Stripe, if you are listening fix EU VAT MOSS once and for all! Billing without MOSS support is useless in EU.
Disclaimer: Octobat co-founder here. We've built the missing part about EU VAT. Feel free to ask if you have any questions about VAT, I'd be happy to help ;-).
totally agree. Wish Strip will handle VAT along with payments/subscriptions and act as a reseller like & . This would truly make life easier for so many SaaS startups & other software vendors in EU. I have asked Strip support about this issue few times in the past, but they neither confirmed nor denied about this feature availability in the future. I just want to get paid at the end of the day for my software like in Apple App Store. Nobody wants to handle/maintain/charge all the different (20+) EU VATs themselves or use additional third party services like etc just to handle taxes/VAT.
This is a massive release, aimed for SaaS startups. Nice work, and team. , we should look into this for (plug! πŸ˜‰)
Omg... its like you read my mind... 🀯 Perfect timing! πŸ€— Just been in touch with the sales team, thanks guys! πŸ™ŒπŸ‘
, is the 0.4% fee for Stripe Billing added to Stripe's usual 2.9% transaction fee? It's not super clear.
Stripe cofounder added some good insight here:
Thanks Phil!
Looks great, only wish they had had this about three years ago!
I needed it one day ago... I just updated pricing yesterday and it would have been a good time to upgrade to the new API. Instead it's now at the bottom of my ever growing backlog list in Trello.
This fucking legit. Definitely going to utilize this when I move to a subscription model for my startup. Well done team!
was it helpful?
Does Stripe Billing integrate with Shopify for subscriptions? Would love to try this instead of existing competitors.
Shopify don't do native subscriptions. Third party addons like Bold King and Recharge do, but will manage subscription lifecycle themselves.
This is huge for new SaaS businesses (and a bad day if you're a company building subscription billing on top of Stripe). Stripe has been (unfortunately) very limited in supporting non-trivial subscription billing that's common in SaaS businesses, like per-seat pricing on different plans, etc. Looks like they've got all the pieces and more now.
I agree! Not the easiest to translate to, if you have a huge block of subscription-based code. I'm going to leave it be myself, for now. Looks legit though :)
This is something, we are waiting for a long time. That's amazing. Congrats!
What's amazing about this release is that they haven't actually announced anything new ... many of these features they rolled out many moons ago but this marketing launch was so well timed and executed it made it look like a completely new product though some of the basics have been there since subscriptions v1. Congrats Stripe team!
