How do you handle authentication? And VAT taxes?
One of my point I'm trying to make is that everyone seems to be duct-taping services like this together.

As far as I know, Chargebee, Recurly and Chargify does authentication and calculates VAT Taxes all for you with only their APIs.

It is Stripe Billing that you have to do all the duct-taping. Most people (in the EU) start on Stripe and end up at Paddle. Even then for (EU and US Stripe customers) the duct-taping still goes on with authentication.
God help you with VAT and Stripe in the EU, it's a nightmare, and not to mention when your customers ask you if you accept Paypal, and you have to implement that too.
Rather go with a subscription engine for a SaaS that is built for this service than rely solely on a payment gateway alone like Stripe.
