Dear Product Hunt Community, 👋
I’m Rishabh Goel, co-founder of Dodo Payments, and I’m thrilled to introduce you to the first Merchant of Record (MoR) platform with ridiculously high success rates and the widest range of local payment methods—whether it’s UPI in India, PIX in Brazil, Klarna in US, or SEPA in Europe.
For digital-first businesses, accepting international payments is a nightmare—low success rates, limited payment methods, complex tax & compliance requirements, and endless paperwork with traditional payment gateways.
🔑 Why we exist
We built Dodo Payments to simplify cross-border payments.
Our Merchant of Record model eliminates friction by handling everything from payment acceptance to tax compliance and chargeback management—so businesses can focus on growth instead of (eww) regulatory red tape.
With Dodo Payments, you can:
✅ Accept payments from 150+ countries
✅ Go live instantly—no extensive documentation required. Your account will be set up and ready in under 5 minutes.
✅ Offer multiple local payment methods like ApplePay, CashApp, Klarna, UPI and 20 others without setting up foreign entities
✅ Ensure compliance with tax and regulatory requirements globally
✅ Operate as a global marketplace even if you're a non-US entity

@masump As Merchant of Record we are plugged into domestic payments infra in multiple markets. This means irrespective of your customers' location, we are able to route the transaction as a domestic transaction.
And success rates for domestic transactions >>>> international transactions
Fraud: We have SOTA fraud models to block unfriendly transactions.
Chargeback: Our fraud models eliminate unfriendly chargebacks. We help you win disputes for 'friendly chargebacks' ie customer is legit and filed chargeback due to misunderstanding.

Launching something you've worked on for months is both exciting and nerve-wracking.
As a part of the team, I’ve seen firsthand how challenging it can be to take a product from an idea to reality. (it's no cake-walk :P)
Today is a big milestone for us, and we’d love your support!

@mogabr Firstly, we love Stripe and Paddle :)
Our focus is emerging markets which is not the focus area for Stripe & Paddle.
For fraud prevention, we have sota fraud models to block unfriendly transactions upfront. We look at 70+ proprietary markers including customer info, card details, product category etc etc.
This helps us manage chargebacks also more effectively :)
Dodo Payments
@mogabr
Thank you! 🚀 We agree—more competition drives better solutions!
For fraud prevention, we use a multi-layered approach, including:
🔹 Machine learning models to detect suspicious patterns
🔹 Velocity checks to flag unusual transaction behavior
🔹 Real-time risk analysis with dynamic scoring
🔹 Chargeback management tools to help merchants dispute fraudulent claims
Would love to dive deeper if you have any specific questions! 🚀🔥
Very interesting! How do you ensure payment security?
Dodo Payments
@maria_kud Hey Maria, great question!
We are PCI compliant ie. we meet all the security standards for processing payments and hold card tokens :)

Dodo Payments
@nikolina_ristoska Really appreciate the kind words :)
Super grateful to the team for building an amazing product!
For example I'm US/EU citizen and I want to sell digital goods in India and choose your system for local payments. What is going on once someone will make local payment? Am I right the payments will be collected in my virtual wallet and then I will be able to convert that to $ and send to my card?
Dodo Payments
@eshangin We are a merchant of record ie. we collect money into our account on your behalf as your official reseller.
The money is first received in our account and we bulk payout on a periodic settlement.
