A merchant of record built for software companies
Choosing the wrong merchant of record can mean wasting time on legacy issues, poor support, and inflexible billing. Paddle is the only Merchant of Record built specifically for the software industry.
The challenge with legacy merchant of record
Businesses have been using a merchant of record to sell online for decades; It’s the best way of sidestepping a fragmented, risky payments stack.
But most options on the market were created in the pre-SaaS world. Dealing with them these days means lots of versioning issues and hacks. Not to mention slow support.
You are most likely using the right model, but the wrong platform.
Why Paddle is different
Paddle uses the proven MOR business model and applies it to a modern, fast-growing payment infrastructure. For the best of both worlds. So you can have complete confidence in your payment partner. We take all responsibility and liability for payment methods, global sales tax liability, billing support, and more for 3000+ software companies.
The bottom line: less time maintaining a legacy system, more time growing with a reliable, modern merchant of record.
