Frustrating Experience with Paddle – Not Suitable for New SaaS Launches I integrated Paddle as the payment provider for my SaaS product and developed the entire system using their sandbox environment. Everything worked fine—until I tried to move to production. At that point, Paddle demanded three months' worth of transaction history from my website. That makes no sense. The whole point of integrating Paddle was to handle transactions — but my product hasn’t launched yet, so how could I possibly have any? This requirement completely blocks new SaaS companies from using their platform at launch. It’s counterintuitive and a waste of time for developers trying to build something from scratch. If you're a new SaaS business, I strongly recommend avoiding Paddle. Their approval process is not startup-friendly.
