BoxBilling Alternative

BoxBillingAlternative

BoxBilling is abandoned and no longer maintained. PayRequest offers a modern, cloud-hosted billing platform with no PHP servers to manage, no security vulnerabilities to patch, and 20+ payment methods built in.

The Key Difference

BoxBilling

  • Abandoned project — no updates since 2022
  • Self-hosted PHP requiring server management
  • Known security vulnerabilities left unpatched
  • Limited payment gateway support
  • Outdated interface from early 2010s

PayRequest

  • Actively maintained with weekly updates
  • Fully hosted — no server needed
  • Enterprise-grade security included
  • 20+ payment methods built-in
  • Modern, intuitive dashboard

Why Switch from BoxBilling?

No More Security Risks

BoxBilling has known vulnerabilities with no patches coming. PayRequest handles all security with automatic updates, SSL, and enterprise-grade infrastructure.

Zero Server Management

Stop maintaining PHP servers, databases, and cron jobs. PayRequest is fully hosted — just sign up and start billing your clients.

Actually Supported

BoxBilling has no active development or community support. PayRequest offers live chat, email support, and regular feature updates.

Modern Payment Methods

Accept iDEAL, SEPA, Bancontact, Apple Pay, Google Pay and more. BoxBilling only supported PayPal and basic Stripe.

Professional Customer Portal

Give your clients a modern self-service portal to view invoices, make payments, and manage subscriptions. Not the dated BoxBilling client area.

Future-Proof Your Billing

With an abandoned platform, you're building on a dead end. PayRequest is actively developed with new features added weekly.
