In their own words
Kill Bill
Kill Bill is an open-source, programmable billing platform with APIs for pricing models, subscriptions, invoices, and payment gateway integrations. It supports usage-based billing, and plugins connect its payment platform to gateways, issuing banks, and fraud tools. The web-based Kaui back-office interface lets teams configure price books and manage subscriptions and payments. Listed integrations include Stripe, Adyen, PayPal, Braintree, GoCardless, Coinbase, Avalara, and Vertex. Installation options include Docker and Tomcat; Kill Bill can run on Windows, Mac, or Linux computers, or on a Linux cloud server. Described security controls include encryption at rest and in transit, TLS communications, AES-256 stored-data encryption, audit logs, role-based access, and multi-tenant isolation. The self-hosted open-source option includes community support, but customers operate and upgrade it; paid support tiers are purchased separately for customer-managed deployments. The AWS Marketplace option is listed at ~$40/mo, plus AWS infrastructure costs. Hosted-platform pricing follows a separate commercial model. The maker describes the product as serving online businesses, customization-focused teams, startups, and growth-stage companies.
Midtrans
Midtrans helps businesses accept payments through cards, bank transfers, e-wallets, QRIS, over-the-counter payments, cardless credit, direct debit, and other methods. Merchants can select from 25 payment methods and enable all or only those they need. Snap supplies a checkout interface for websites and mobile apps; Core API lets a business build its own payment flow. Merchants can also create a payment page link in the dashboard without code and share it with customers.
For ecommerce, Midtrans documents plugins for WordPress WooCommerce, Magento, PrestaShop, OpenCart, and WHMCS, along with integrations for Shopify, Sirclo, and Jejualan. Android and iOS SDKs support native in-app payments. Recurring charges can collect fixed subscription amounts at selected intervals and retry failures, though only some payment channels support them. Midtrans says it screens every transaction for fraud using machine learning and analyst-defined rules. It is available on Android, iOS, web, and through an API. Setup is free, with charges on successful transactions; pricing starts from 4,000 IDR, and fees can differ for gaming and digital product companies.
