How to choose a Chargebee alternative
- Start with your billing complexity. If you have three plans and monthly cycles, your payment gateway's built-in subscriptions may be enough.
- Check gateway support in India — Razorpay, Cashfree and PayU — alongside Stripe for international customers.
- Understand pricing: a percentage of revenue looks small at launch and large at scale; negotiate a cap early.
