PayCan
Open-source alternative to Stripe Checkout for vibe coders
Seamless, multi-gateway payment integration for your SaaS or vibe-coded app in **around 10 lines of code**. Paycan is a self-hosted, vendor-agnostic checkout system. Switch between Stripe & PayPal effortlessly with zero lock-in, no complex webhooks, and absolute freedom.
✨ Hey Product Hunt community!
I’m so excited to share PayCan with you today!
As developers and creators, we’ve all been there: you build a cool SaaS, a side project, or a quick vibe-coded app, and then you hit the payment wall. Suddenly, you're drowning in webhook documentation, customer creation logic, and complex SDKs. Even worse, you're locked into a single provider’s ecosystem.
We built Paycan to solve this. It's a completely open-source, self-hosted checkout service that acts as a unified layer over major gateways.
✨ Why Paycan?
- Zero Vendor Lock-in: Switch between Stripe and PayPal (with more coming) without rewriting a single line of your core app's payment logic.
- Around 10 Lines of Code: Drop it in and start collecting one-time payments or managing subscriptions.
- No Webhook Nightmares: We handle the heavy lifting, subscription tracking, and sync so you don't have to.
- Developer-First & Hackable: Built on Laravel and Vue, fully tested, API-first, and fits right into modern developer setups.
🗺️ What’s Next on Our Roadmap?
More gateways (Mollie, Razorpay, Braintree)
We are entirely open-source (AGPLv3) and love contributors! Check out our GitHub repository, tell us what gateways you want to see next, and let us know what you think.
I’ll be here all day to answer your questions and chat about payments! 👇
