Frequently Asked Questions
Is PayRequest suitable for hosting companies?
PayRequest is ideal for recurring billing, but it doesn't have built-in hosting provisioning (cPanel, Plesk integration). If you need automatic server provisioning, WHMCS is more suitable. For simple subscription billing, PayRequest works great.
How does pricing compare?
WHMCS starts at $15.95/month for the license alone — you still need hosting ($10-50/month). PayRequest is €20/month all-inclusive with hosting, SSL, and updates. No hidden costs.
Can I migrate from WHMCS to PayRequest?
Yes, you can export your customer data and recreate subscriptions in PayRequest. For active subscriptions, customers will need to re-subscribe, but you can do this gradually as renewals come up.
What about WHMCS modules and add-ons?
WHMCS has a large module ecosystem for specific hosting functions. PayRequest focuses on billing and payments — it's simpler but doesn't have hosting-specific integrations. Consider what you actually need.
Which has better payment gateway support?
For European payment methods, PayRequest wins with native Mollie integration for iDEAL, Bancontact, and SEPA. WHMCS requires third-party modules for these, which cost extra and may have compatibility issues.
Is PayRequest secure for billing?
Absolutely. PayRequest is PCI-DSS compliant through Stripe/Mollie, uses bank-level encryption, and handles security updates automatically. With WHMCS, security depends on your server management.
Hosting Integrations
PayRequest integrates with the tools hosting resellers already use.
