EU Indie Hackers, What Payment Provider Do You Use?

I'm building a niche job board, and plan to monetise it by charging companies to post a job, which is a one-off payment.

I want to handle single payments, not subscriptions. Initially, I wanted to use Paddle, as they are a merchant of record, but job boards are prohibited. Stripe is another option, but I don't know how hard it is to handle all the taxes. I'd rather go for a merchant of record.

I'm curious to know what payment providers do other EU-based indie hackers use? Also, does anyone know of a merchant of record that would be OK with taking payments for my job board?

Thanks you!

    @Yosif
    I have the same question with you.
    Did you have any progress on this?

    Hi,

    I'd say Stripe automated tax collection is actually very easy: https://stripe.com/en-gb/tax , and may be less costly than a MOR.

    Hope this helps.

    The big player in this space seems to be https://www.paddle.com/, and there's a relative newcomer https://www.lemonsqueezy.com/
