Objections & responses

  • We already use Stripe, Paddle, or Lemon Squeezy.

    Response: Dodo Payments is positioned as a developer-friendly Merchant of Record alternative; website testimonials describe fast verification and smooth migration from Stripe, Paddle, and Lemon Squeezy. Migration ease is website-claimed and should be validated for each business.

  • Will tax and compliance really be handled for us?

    Response: As Merchant of Record, Dodo states it calculates, collects, files, and remits VAT, GST, and sales tax across 190+ jurisdictions and handles chargebacks and disputes. Scope is website-stated and should be confirmed for specific jurisdictions.

  • Is the pricing predictable?

    Response: The website states a single Standard Plan at 4% + 40¢ per transaction with no setup, monthly, or minimum fees, plus add-on rates for subscriptions, international payments, and recovery; Enterprise pricing is custom. Confirm exact rates with the founder before quoting.

  • How fast can we go live?

    Response: The website and testimonials describe verification within hours and integration in under 10 lines of code via adapters, SDKs, and an MCP server. Speed is website-claimed and not guaranteed.
