Why Teams Switch to Creem

The Problem: Selling globally means VAT, GST, and sales tax across dozens of jurisdictions. Different rates, thresholds, filing requirements. Most founders ignore it (risky), hire expensive accountants, or avoid selling internationally.Creem’s Solution: As your Merchant of Record, we are the legal seller. We calculate, collect, file, and remit all taxes worldwide. You never touch a tax form. This isn’t a plugin. It’s how Creem works by default.
The Problem: Most MoR solutions charge 5-8% per transaction plus monthly platform fees. On a 49/moSaaS,thats49/mo SaaS, that's 2-4 per transaction gone.Creem’s Solution: 3.9% + 30¢ flat. No monthly fees. No minimums. No tiered pricing that punishes small volume. The most competitive MoR on the market.
The Problem: Dashboard-first platforms force you into click-through wizards. That doesn’t scale, and it doesn’t work for teams that automate everything.Creem’s Solution: Everything is API-first. The CLI lets you manage products, subscriptions, and transactions from the terminal. JSON output for scripting. Interactive TUI for browsing. SKILL.md lets AI agents onboard themselves autonomously.
The Problem: Payments are just the start. You need affiliates, revenue splits, license keys, and subscription lifecycle handling. Cobbling together 5 tools is a nightmare.Creem’s Solution: Creem includes affiliate programs, revenue splits, license keys, subscription management (trials, upgrades, downgrades, cancellations), webhooks, and a customer portal. One platform, one integration.
