Laravel Spark
Official Laravel recurring billing scaffold with subscriptions, invoicing and a customer portal

- Best for
- Laravel developers who want official, battle-tested recurring billing (subscriptions, invoicing, customer portal) without building it themselves.
- Skip if
- You're not building on Laravel, or you need a full SaaS starter with auth/dashboard/UI beyond billing scaffolding.
Laravel Spark is Laravel creator Taylor Otwell's official SaaS billing starter kit, handling subscription plan configuration, per-seat billing, invoice generation with PDF downloads, and payment method management through Stripe or Paddle (with PayPal via Paddle). It's frontend-agnostic - pair it with Blade/Bootstrap or Inertia/Vue - and designed so billing logic stays out of your application code as you build the rest of your SaaS on top.
Pros
- Built and maintained by Laravel's own creator - strong trust signal for the Laravel ecosystem
- Frontend-agnostic - works with Blade, Inertia/Vue, or a custom frontend
- Choice of Stripe or Paddle (with PayPal via Paddle), plus per-seat billing support
Cons
- Focused narrowly on billing - not a full SaaS boilerplate with auth UI, dashboards, or other app scaffolding
- Paid only, with the unlimited-projects tier at $199
- Proprietary license, no public source to review before purchase
