Veriam vs. Paddle

A focused comparison
paddle-logo

Paddle is a billing and payment platform designed to simplify subscription management, payment processing, and tax compliance for software companies. It focuses on providing an all-in-one solution for handling global transactions, compliance, and customer lifecycle management.

While Paddle excels at managing payments and subscriptions, it does not offer identity and access management (IAM) capabilities. Businesses using Paddle typically need a separate IAM solution to handle user authentication and access control.

Veriam, on the other hand, delivers a unified solution that integrates IAM and subscription management, allowing businesses to control user access while managing subscriptions in one platform. This approach reduces operational complexity and enhances scalability, particularly for business-to-business (B2B) organizations.
