The article is interesting, but it's not clear how Lago fixes the issue.
As far as I know, Lago starts in the low thousands per month.
If you go with the self hosted route, you might also just process Stripe's API (backfill using API or data export, use webhooks to keep it up to date). It's actually much easier than onboarding with Lago I would say.
- chucky123 2y agoExactly, Lago seems like its riding the open source wave. Nobody reasonable is going to self host this.
- jjeaff 2y agoI see no reason why one wouldn't self host this. Subscription and billing data is such a crucial part of any business, I'm surprised more don't handle it internally.
- Palmik 2y agoBecause to self host it, you'd need to ensure you're PCI compliant. That works for established companies I guess, but not so much when starting out. Payment provider lock-in in a scary thing, when they can cancel your account at moment's notice.
