Stripe Billing is a genuinely excellent, powerful platform. JEB takes a different angle: instead of handing you the tools, we run billing for you — white-label, from your own domain, on flat monthly pricing from $49. If you want less to build and operate, JEB might be the better fit.
Both products send invoices and collect payments. The real difference is how much you operate yourself. Stripe Billing is self-serve infrastructure you configure and manage. JEB is a managed service: we set it up, send the invoices, chase the payments, and pay you out — so a small team can launch without owning the billing stack. Here's an honest, side-by-side look.
Stripe figures are described neutrally — pricing and features vary by setup and change over time. Check stripe.com for current details.

The differentiators below are where JEB tends to win for smaller teams — not because Stripe lacks capability, but because JEB does the work for you.
JEB is a managed service. We set up your billing, send invoices, follow up on what's owed, and reconcile — so your team doesn't have to operate a billing system day to day.
Invoice and reminder emails go out through your own SMTP, so every message looks like it came straight from your business — never from a third-party billing brand.
One monthly fee per tier — Starter $49, Growth $199, Professional $699, Enterprise custom. No percentage of every dollar you bill, so your cost doesn't climb just because revenue does.
Let JEB handle collection with 48-hour payouts, or bring your own card and ACH processor and keep your existing money flow. Your choice, either way.
Done-for-you onboarding means you can be sending live, branded invoices quickly — without a developer project to stand up and maintain billing logic first.
Prefer to automate? JEB is API-first with clean endpoints and webhooks, so you can push usage and trigger invoices from your stack while we still handle the heavy lifting.
Both are good products. The best choice depends on how much you want to build and operate yourself.
