Stripe still will not onboard new sellers in India who want to charge customers…

Brief

KroszKit is a Dodo-first Next.js 16 starter kit the author built after Stripe refused to onboard Indian sellers charging customers abroad; it packages a production billing layer (used in their startup) with 81 tests, checkout, webhooks with replay protection, subscription state machine, and instant GitHub repo delivery. Price: $29 now, $39 at v1.0; five-seat license $99.

Why it matters

Stripe still will not onboard new sellers in India who want to charge customers abroad; the author migrated their product to Dodo Payments after hitting that restriction.

Key details

  • KroszKit is a Dodo-first Next.js 16 starter kit priced $29 now (rising to $39 at v1.0) with a five-seat team license for $99; it includes billing, auth, transactional email, blog, and docs, and was used for real payments in the author's startup.
  • The billing path is hand-written and covered by 81 tests, implementing checkout, customer portal, verified webhooks with replay protection, a subscription state machine, dunning-aware gating, one-time purchases, and instant GitHub repo invite delivery upon purchase.
Source evidence

Stripe still will not onboard new sellers in India who want to charge customers abroad. I hit that wall on my own product, moved to Dodo Payments, and then spent longer than I want to admit getting the billing right.

That work is now a starter kit. KroszKit, Next.js 16, $29.

The hard part was never checkout. It was everything after it. Webhook signatures. Retried deliveries running fulfilment twice. A card in retry looking identical to a cancellation unless you handle it on purpose. Generated code gets that last one wrong constantly, because Dodo is new enough that models fall back on Stripe patterns. It compiles, the tests pass, and you still lose money.

So the kit ships that path written by hand and covered by 81 tests. Checkout, customer portal, verified webhooks with replay protection, the subscription state machine, dunning aware gating, one time purchases.

It is not demo code. The billing layer was taking real payments at my startup before I pulled it out.

The store selling it runs on it. Same checkout route, same webhook pipeline, same receipt email. You pay, put in your GitHub username, and the repo invite shows up in seconds. After that, updates are git pull.

$29 now, $39 at v1.0. Five seat team license is $99.
