Lotus
Pricing and billing engine for SaaS companies that runs custom subscriptions and usage-based plans, self-hosted with Docker.
Lotus is a pricing and billing engine for SaaS companies, built for custom subscriptions and usage-based plans. Its README presents self-hosting with Docker through a self-host script as the only version. A product’s backend sends usage events and subscribes customers to plans through the Lotus SDK or API, as the getting-started guide shows. Postgres with TimescaleDB holds its data, and a control panel manages plans and subscriptions.
Worth knowing
