> How does this compare to using Stripe out of the box?

Basically you don't need to run your own server / database / custom Stripe integration code / user management system / custom extension integration, which is annoying to write yourself and costs money to run a server. With ExtensionPay you just add a little code in your extension [open source here](https://github.com/Glench/ExtPay) and register your extension in the web UI. I made it for use in my own extensions :)

> BTW I think someone was trying to start a browser extension developer guild on HN, can't remember which thread... You should tap into that community.

Cool, I'll check it out, thanks. Any other hints to how I could find it?



That makes sense, I'd try it before rolling my own. If I do charge, it'll be a recurring subscription.

I found it! Look at the end of this post. I submitted the form but didn't hear back though. If you find anything let me know, I'd love to connect with fellow extension builders.

Great! I'm working on adding subscriptions now. And thanks for the guild link!
