Anything resembling Shopify for SaaS?
Every time I'm building a SaaS product I have the same things I need to build:
- User management
- Billing, plans and invoicing
- User dashboard
- Ticketing and support
- Landing page (could be detached but is n2h)
Then I could focus on the API or product business logic.
What are some tools that I can outsource to get these out of my responsibility? In other words is there a Shopify for SaaS? and if not how can I ease that part?

I found https://www.outseta.com/ that might be something similar to what you are looking for. I did not personally built something with it, but it seems promising. I am planning to use them for my next project.
This is amazing! I think they should use the word membership, I thought at the beginning that is it a community building platform, which isn't want I want.
The 25 first free users is also a great thing, to check MVPs without loosing too much investment.

Handles the marketing site
I would make sure to disconnect the marketing site and the actual SaaS web app.
https://www.outseta.com/ can handle the rest
Amazing, thanks!

What if my country doesnt support stripe?
Ah, we only support credit card payments via Stripe at this time.
Recently I've been using stackbit, it's been a great experience.
It's just a site builder no? does it include customer management, billing and such?

Cool article. I still would rather not waste anytime even on getting it up the ground. I would rather those parts be hosted already and just to integrate into it, like shopify. So I only manage the core essentials of my business (API for example).
