So I found a service https://paddle.com/

Saying that they can handle all sales tax for me, because they are a reseller of my product. Is this true? Is anybody using it? Any other alternatives?

Hey :) I'm actually from Paddle yes this is true as Jerriep touched on as well as handling all sales tax we take care of all the other complexities that occur when billing :)

But don't take my word for it! Boxy explained exactly why they used us better than I ever can: https://www.indiehackers.com/interview/how-we-grew-to-6k-mrr...

I use Paddle and so far I am happy with them. The integration was simple enough and their support has been responsive.

I cannot use Stripe in my country, so I had to look for alternatives. Paddle is more expensive, but they have many things built in that you would have to pay extra for on Stripe. One of those is the handling of sales tax. The other, which I will implement soon, is built-in handling of affiliates.

I think stripe can calculate taxes
