Paddle is the preferable choice for global SaaS products where VAT, GST, and sales tax compliance are key concerns - Paddle acts as a Merchant of Record, managing all tax collection and remittance. Stripe requires teams to handle tax compliance separately through Stripe Tax or manual processes. Stripe is better when payment method flexibility, advanced fraud detection, custom checkout design, or complex subscription logic are priorities. For early-stage global SaaS, Paddle's tax-inclusive model simplifies compliance considerably.
