Why we use Dodo Payments

• A true merchant of record

  Dodo Payments is the legal seller for each purchase. They calculate, collect and file sales tax, VAT and GST in every country we sell to, so a developer in Germany, Brazil or Japan gets a correct, tax-compliant invoice without us running a tax team.

• Built for API and SaaS billing

  Subscriptions, yearly plans, discounts and usage-based billing are first-class features. That fits a product like ours, where customers move between Free, Starter, Pro and Business plans as their usage grows.

• Global from day one

  Our customers are traders and developers all over the world. With one integration, they can pay with the card or local method they already use.

• Security we don't have to build

  Card details are entered on Dodo's PCI DSS Level 1 hosted checkout. They never touch our servers, which keeps your payment data safer and our systems simpler.

• A developer experience we enjoy

  Clear documentation, signed webhooks that follow the open Standard Webhooks specification, SDKs and even an MCP server for AI agents. Our whole billing integration runs on their API, and it has been reliable.

• Support that actually answers

  When we have a question, real people at Dodo reply quickly and follow through. For a small team, that matters as much as any feature.

• Pay with a card or a local payment method available in your country.
• Get an official invoice with tax handled correctly for your country, attached to your receipt email.
• Your card details stay with Dodo's certified checkout and are never stored by us.
• Your plan renews automatically, and you can turn auto-renewal off from your dashboard at any time.

Why does Dodo Payments appear on my receipt instead of RealMarketAPI?

Dodo Payments is our merchant of record: they are the reseller who processes the payment and handles tax on our behalf. Your plan, API keys and usage are still managed by RealMarketAPI.

Is my card information safe?

Yes. Card details are entered on the Dodo Payments hosted checkout, which is PCI DSS Level 1 certified. We never see or store your card number or CVV.

Where do I find my invoices?

Each payment sends a receipt email with the invoice attached, and your full billing history is in the Plan & billing section of your dashboard.

Which payment methods can I use?

Major cards and many local payment methods, depending on your country. The checkout shows the options available to you.
