Stop Reinventing Payments: How EasyLaunchpad Connects You to Stripe & Paddle Fast

If you’ve ever set up payments for a SaaS app, you already know — it’s never as easy as the documentation makes it look.

From tokenization to webhooks, plan tiers to failed billing, setting up a reliable and secure payment system is a project in itself.

That’s why EasyLaunchpad ships with a fully integrated payments module, wired for both Stripe and Paddle, so you can skip the hassle and start selling your SaaS — instantly.

Let’s compare the traditional way vs. the EasyLaunchpad way of handling payments inside a .NET Core app.

The Traditional Way: Wiring Everything Manually

A typical developer trying to add payments from scratch has to:

• Read API docs for Stripe or Paddle

• Set up webhook listeners

• Build a database schema for plans, subscriptions, and licenses

• Handle failed payments and retries

• Build UI for upgrade/downgrade/cancellation

• Sync client-side payment logic with backend access control

And that’s just to get basic billing working.

You’ll spend:

• ⏳ Weeks building backend logic

• 🔍 Hours testing and debugging edge cases

• 💸 Money on missed conversions due to broken flows

The worst part? You’ll need to do it again when building your next app.

The EasyLaunchpad Way: It’s Already Done

With EasyLaunchpad, you start with a battle-tested .NET billing system that supports:

✅ Stripe (perfect for subscription billing and custom flows)
✅ Paddle (ideal for EU-friendly SaaS and easy tax compliance)
✅ Prebuilt database models for plans, payments, licenses
✅ Admin control over user packages and access
✅ Secure webhooks for transaction and subscription updates
✅ Conditional feature access based on plan

No guesswork. No boilerplate. No burnout.

Why Both Stripe and Paddle?

Stripe offers great control over recurring billing, coupons, invoicing, and checkout sessions. It’s the gold standard for SaaS.

Paddle simplifies global SaaS sales — taking care of VAT, fraud prevention, and compliance. You don’t even need a merchant account.

EasyLaunchpad gives you the choice — plug in one or both, depending on your business needs.

What’s Included in the Payments Module?

Here’s what comes baked into the system:

• Package & plan management
  Define Free, Pro, and Enterprise tiers with feature-level access

• Subscription linking
  Users are linked to subscriptions and licenses in your database

• Payment webhooks
  Stripe and Paddle events update user status in real-time

• License validation
  Secure access enforcement across controllers and services

• Admin controls
  Upgrade, downgrade, cancel, and refund directly from the dashboard

• Trial logic
  Offer limited-time access or metered usage plans

Package-Based Feature Access

Want to show premium features only to paid users?

You don’t need complex logic — EasyLaunchpad provides this out of the box:

if (_licenseManager.IsFeatureAllowed(“TeamDashboard”))

{

// Render Pro-only component

}

Behind the scenes, it checks:

• The user’s plan

• Expiry date

• Active license status

• Plan-specific feature rules

It’s simple, flexible, and perfect for SaaS monetization.

Usage Scenarios Made Easy

Use the pre-integrated system for:

• Tiered SaaS apps (Free, Pro, Enterprise)

• Pay-per-feature licensing

• Trial-based MVPs

• Micro-SaaS products with quick checkout

Because it’s modular, you can also extend the logic to:

• Count usage limits (API calls, storage, etc.)

• Sync billing with external CRMs or analytics

• Trigger emails post-payment using DotLiquid templates

Security & Compliance Handled

Payment logic is:

• Separated from core app logic

• Built on secure webhook listeners

• Compatible with HTTPS and tokenized sessions

• Loggable via Serilog for transaction traceability

Whether you’re handling subscription fraud, expired cards, or plan upgrades — the system is ready.

Tested and Used in Production

This isn’t theory. EasyLaunchpad’s payment module has:

• Real-world validation

• Error handling

• Retry logic

• Admin-level overrides

Startups have already launched MVPs and sold their first licenses using it — with zero payment-related rewrites.

Focus on Your Product — Not Payment Headaches

Building your own payment logic is:

• Expensive

• Risky

• Time-consuming

• Repetitive

You don’t need to spend two sprints reinventing Stripe integration.
You just need a system that works, scales, and gives you full control.
