Replace Chargebee
Plans, proration, dunning and invoices layered on top of a payment processor.
Why teams move off Chargebee
Chargebee sits on top of your payment processor and holds the subscription state your application most needs to read.
What you give up
Dunning campaigns, revenue recognition and the finance reporting around them.
This directory says so when an engine only covers part of the job. A replacement that needs a caveat is still worth knowing about — it just should not surprise you in week three.
