Hey everyone 👋 We built SnapPay after wiring up Stripe for multiple products and realizing we were rebuilding the same mini billing system every time: checkout sessions, webhooks, subscription state, usage limits, and “can this user access X?” checks. What we really wanted was: one line to start checkout and one clean stream of events back into our app. SnapPay is our attempt at that. Under the hood it’s still Stripe, but on top you get: ↳ 1-line checkout for a plan or product ↳ Server-Sent Events (SSE) instead of webhook endpoints ↳ Built-in usage & access APIs for credits, seats, and feature flags It’s especially useful if you’re: ▷ Selling one main plan (e.g. a Pro tier) ▷ Pricing AI/API usage (messages, tokens, seats) ▷ Shipping micro-SaaS or side projects and don’t want to own billing infra 🚀 This launch is our first public release, with JS/TS SDK + dashboard and docs. I’d love to hear what you’re currently doing for payments (DIY Stripe, wrappers, no billing yet?) and what would make SnapPay a no-brainer for you. Happy to answer any technical questions in the comments!

@nathan_tran2 This looks really clean and well thought out, excited to see how it evolves.”

🧐 Good find

Amazing launch! 🚀 I have a few questions as I’m exploring this:

  1. If I already have Stripe connected, how hard is it to migrate to SnapPay?

  2. Is billing state stored on your side or handled in my app?

  3. Any plans for no-code or low-code support for non-technical teams?

Excited to see where this goes!

@trang_do19 Thank you for supporting our launch.

  1. I believe it won't be too difficult. You can read our documentation to better understand how SnapPay is implemented using our server-side SDKs. If you still have any questions, feel free to reply to this thread so we can support you better.

  2. We handle the billing state in our app, so you don't need to worry about that. However, if you want to receive those events or information, our SSE feature can help.

  3. Those features are great, but unfortunately, they are not on our current roadmap. We will definitely add them in the future, so make sure to follow our LinkedIn/X for updates.

Never thought of a getaway from Stripe nightmare so this is a good idea. I have read the documentation and quite interested. May I ask:
- Does it still require a Stripe account to set up?
- How do you handle payment security for this product?

Nguyen Truong

@ha_le15 Thank you, Ha, for your compliment. Regarding your question:

  • We still use Stripe to process payments, but we’ve made it extremely easy to configure (even easier if you already have a Stripe account).

  • We are building a top layer on top of Stripe that covers the parts we notice repeating across our projects. Basically, we keep all of Stripe’s security layers, but add additional convenience when implementing features.

Please let me know if these answers address your concerns.

💡 Bright idea

Really impressed by how fast SnapPay is to integrate. Setting up basic payments literally took minutes.

Some suggestions from my experience:

  • The developer documentation is good, but adding more real-world examples (e.g., SaaS seat upgrades, feature gating) would help new users onboard faster.

  • A visual dashboard for usage-based billing would make it even stronger.

  • Checkout works well, but support for more themes or UI presets would be nice.

Great product — feels like Stripe with much less friction.

Nathan Tran

@gregory_gantt thank for having such insightful feedback! We'll definitely add. these into our product improvement for next launch

Ngoc Hoang

Interesting, I’m in the middle of building a usage-based billing model right now. Going to check this out and see if it fits, looks promising.

and congrats on the launch!

Nguyen Truong

@ngochoang Thank you, Ngoc. I believe we can support you throughout your app-building process. Make sure to read our documentation, and don't hesitate to reach out if you encounter any issues.
