Creem - Smooth payments for SaaS

Creem caught my attention after trying to find a good robust payment solution, with a strong developer focus but also fair/transparent pricing. Their product ticks all the boxes for me and the 24/7 support has been great. With no fees at all for the first 1000 EUR the price point is very supportive when still finding product market fit. They’re doing a deal for this launch also to extend that by 500 EUR for PH users (next 24 hours only). Founders @sudoferraz and @alec_erasmus will be available for an AMA all day today to answer questions on the product. Congrats on the launch guys, what inspired you to build the product?

I always struggle with payment solutions. First I tried lemon squeezy it does not work for me properly and has a high fees. Now I am using stripe. But Creem looks good with 0% fees. because new SaaS developers does not make a lot.

Congratulations on the launch! Can you elaborate on your customer support structure? How quickly can users expect responses to their queries?

Congrats on the Launch! Considering that you want to entice a smaller-sized clientele, is this solely web/desktop based or do you have plans to do a mobile version?

I love the USP! Do you support usage-based pricing? I couldn't find any references in the docs. Congrats on the launch!

First, I don't think I would have found this without productHunt, so thanks all you guys. Second, bookmarked and ready to try it out. third: question, the auto-tax thing, does it also work for EU countries, cause things can go weird over here. So I love the idea of not having to deal with all those tax things. Finally: I think I had a small bug: first wanted to join using an email address. The site says that a link should have been sent, but I haven't received anything. Worked good with the google auth...

Dear SaaS founders and entrepreneurs, We're thrilled to introduce Creem to Product Hunt today! 🎉🎉 Our journey began when we realized how complex and often opaque the pricing structures of existing payment solutions were. Many competitors in the market often fail to transparently advertise their fees for various services such as payouts, international transfers, and subscriptions. This lack of clarity can lead to unexpected costs that take founders by surprise when scaling their businesses. Beyond just providing payment tools, we are deeply inspired by the mission of democratizing access to the same revenue-boosting financial functionalities that industry giants leverage. Our vision is to level the playing field, enabling smaller businesses and startups to harness the power of sophisticated financial tools that were once the exclusive domain of large corporations. This mission truly energizes us - the idea that we can empower the underdogs, the innovators, and the dreamers with capabilities that can significantly impact their growth and success. By making these advanced financial tools accessible and manageable for businesses of all sizes, we're not just providing a service; we're fostering innovation, encouraging competition, and potentially reshaping the entire SaaS landscape. This is a cause we wholeheartedly believe in and are committed to pursuing. That's why we've created Creem - a platform designed to level the playing field and boost your revenue growth without the hefty upfront costs or resource-intensive implementation typically required for financial incentive functionality. We wanted to build a product that not only simplified the payment process but also provided clear, upfront pricing without hidden fees. 🛡️ Our first step towards that mission is live, and Creem now offers: - Merchant of Record services, handling all tax and compliance requirements. - Seamless product creation without a single line of code, directly on the platform or through our robust API. - Frictionless payment links without any integration hurdles. - Subscription lifecycle management for you and your customers through our customer portal. - No-Code Pricing Table component. - Analytics and visualization We are far from done, and to sweeten the deal for our early adopters from Product Hunt, we are increasing the amount processed with 0% fees (for the first 24 hours) - 0% fees until $/EUR 1.500,00 Our next steps will be very focused on the embeddable components that will supercharge your revenue growth. While loosely ordered below, we anticipate your feedback to help sculpt our roadmap: - Embeddable Feature Request component/page enriched with your customer Data (Customer LTV per feature, Medium LTV per vote, etc.). - Embeddable Dynamic Price component that intelligently adjusts your pricing based on conversion and sales metrics. - Embeddable Referral program with customizable settings and automatically generated referral links and payments. - Cutting-edge Affiliate programs and Affiliate Portal seamlessly embeddable into your SaaS. - Payment Splits for Creators and Revenue sharing to your partners and users. - Email Marketing and Customer Journey Builder to help your distribution. We're architecting a future where SaaS businesses of all sizes can flourish independently, laser-focusing on their core products while we take care of the complex financial ecosystem. Ultimately, our goal with Creem is to democratize access to robust financial tools, making it easier for businesses of all sizes to compete on a global scale and scale their operations with the same tools everyone else has. We're excited to continue this journey and look forward to hearing more from our users about how we can further improve and innovate. Thank you again for your support, and we're here to answer any other questions you might have!

Congrats, can you share more details about the integration process with existing systems? I am already integrated with another provider, so I wonder how difficult that would be.

I’m so happy to see some competition in this space. I always find it funny that Stripe is supposed to be the “better” PayPal when it’s really not that easy to use and the fees are not much better. I’d love to see a link to the GitHub with templates for NextJS, etc. and a guide for how to migrate an existing app that uses Stripe!

Really needed! Signed up already, thanks for making! Paying 12% fees at the moment on lemonsqueezy all-in, this saving would be huge! Congrats @sudoferraz and @alec_erasmus !!!

Very nice and Transparent Pricing Structure. Well done

Congrats on the launch, will you be implementing one time payments soon?

How does it differentiate from Stripe?

Congrats on the launch, Creem team! The fair pricing and 0% fees up to 1000 EUR, plus the extra 500 EUR for Product Hunt users, is an awesome deal for SaaS companies. A great step forward in simplifying payments while keeping costs low!

@jasondainter Great to see Creem offering such a fair and transparent payment solution for SaaS companies, especially with the added benefit for Product Hunt users! Extending the 0% fee threshold is a huge plus. How do you see this helping businesses scale faster in the early stages?

Can this be an alternative to Stripe? Since it's not available in my country

Interesting approach to SaaS payments. How does Creem maintain profitability with no fees up to €1500? Curious about their fraud prevention measures. The developer focus is appealing, but wonder how it compares to established players in terms of integration ease and features. The fair pricing model could be a game-changer for early-stage startups. Would be great to see some performance metrics or case studies.

Nice reminds me of resend just for payments 💪🏻 Congrats on the launch guys 🚀

Congrats guys. Do you always plan to have 0% fees or will it change in future?

Nice launch, can we expect to see some AI in the product? Maybe querying with LLMs about customer data?
