Hi!
I co-led the billing stack re-write at Uber circa 2017 and it was an absolute nightmare.
Some of the unexpected hard things that are not mentioned in this article:
- Manage promotion was very complex
- Modeling money (we used to model it as cents ie 1/100 of the common denomination ... turns out it broke a lot of countries like Japan where the Japanese Yen doesn't have cents)
- Timezone is a hellhole One interesting open source project was https://killbill.io/ PS: Since I built a billing and invoicing startup .. check it out: zenbill.com |
