Open-source billing platform for usage-based pricing, subscriptions, metering, invoicing, and payment orchestration. Alternative to Stripe Billing or Chargebee for complex billing logic. Self-host free or use managed cloud. Self-hosted: free. Cloud: contact sales. SOC 2 Type 2 compliant.
A STOA consultant can help you evaluate these tools based on your specific business needs and walk you through implementation.
Talk to STOALago is best for tech-savvy small businesses that need flexible, usage-based billing and have a developer on staff to set it up. The self-hosted version is completely free, which is a huge win if you can manage it yourself — but if you need the managed cloud version, pricing is unclear and likely expensive. Most small businesses without technical resources will find it too complex to get running.
