SSL securedStripe Billing is the engine. PayFacile is the whole car.
Stripe Billing is "free." But building a business on it isn't.
Stripe Billing charges 0.7% of recurring billing volume — no fixed monthly fee. Sounds attractive. But to run an actual business, you still need to build a website, integrate payments, connect an email tool, manage invoicing, and maintain all of it. Alone or with a developer.
Stripe Billing is powerful — but it's a building block, not a solution. With PayFacile, you get the complete solution.
Everything Stripe Billing doesn't do — or makes you build.
A Ready-Made Website
Create your site in minutes with our visual editor. Custom domain, white label. Stripe Billing offers no website creation tools.
Workflows Without Zapier
Send automated emails, chase failed payments, segment customers — directly from PayFacile. With Stripe Billing, you need to connect SendGrid, Zapier, or another tool.
A Turnkey Customer Portal
Your customers manage their own subscription, download invoices, update their payment method. Stripe offers a Customer Portal, but integrating it requires development work.
Multi-Gateway Payments
PayFacile natively connects Stripe, GoCardless, and Braintree. Stripe Billing locks you into the Stripe ecosystem — no alternative if you need a different processor.
Gated Content & Online Courses
Sell courses, digital files, members-only content — all built in. Stripe Billing doesn't handle content.
Zero Technical Skills Required
Sign up, configure, make your first sale — all from a visual interface. No code, no API, no terminal.
Stripe Billing is built for technical teams. And that's great.
If you have a developer (or a technical team), an existing website, and you're looking for flexible, powerful billing infrastructure — Stripe Billing is an excellent choice. It's the gold standard for SaaS startups and product teams.
But if you're an entrepreneur, you don't have a developer or a website, and you just want to sell subscriptions — PayFacile is the answer. We use Stripe behind the scenes for payments, and we add everything that's missing: the website, the portal, the automations, the invoicing. Stripe is the engine. PayFacile is the car.
