FEATURES

Everything you need.
Nothing you don’t.

For UEMOA SaaS builders who want reliable billing without building their own payment infrastructure.

01
Mobile money native
Wave in Côte d’Ivoire, in XOF, on QBill’s account or on your own Wave account. Orange Money, MTN MoMo and Moov Money follow on the same API.
02
Ten pricing models
Flat rate, per seat, hybrid, metered, tiered, volume, stairstep, prepaid credits, one-time, installment — plus add-ons and overage.
03
Automatic reminders
Reminders on D+1, D+3 and D+7 (configurable), by email and webhook, with the payment link. At the last step the subscription goes past due or is cancelled, your choice.
04
Signed webhooks
22 events — invoice.paid, subscription.cancelled, usage.threshold_reached… — signed, retried up to 5 times on failure.
05
White-label customer portal
Your customers change plan, pause, cancel, download invoices and pay — magic-link sign-in, no password.
06
Revenue analytics
MRR, ARR, churn, ARPU, LTV, cohorts and forecast, computed for you. CSV export.
07
Node.js SDK
Typed, dependency-free, with verified webhooks and structured errors. More languages will follow; the REST API works from anywhere.
08
Automated invoicing
PDF invoices in French or English per customer, prorations, credit notes, VAT and a monthly VAT report.
09
Payment and sales links
A payment link for every invoice, and reusable sales links that create the customer, invoice and subscription on payment.

DEVELOPER FIRST

The billing API you
actually want to use

A typed SDK, verified webhooks, predictable errors, and a full test mode.

01
Live in minutes
A test key from the developer portal, and your first subscriptions are out.
02
Test mode built in
Test keys never reach Wave: a simulated payment page lets you pay or decline.
03
Typed webhooks
Every event has its TypeScript type; constructEvent() checks the signature.
04
Structured errors
Status, code, hint and request id: an error says what went wrong.
import { QBill } from '@qbill/node';
const qbill = new QBill(process.env.QBILL_SECRET_KEY!);
const customer = await qbill.customers.create({
name: 'Boutique Awa',
email: 'awa@example.com',
country: 'CI',
});
const sub = await qbill.subscriptions.create({
customer: customer.id,
plan: 'plan_id',
billing_interval: 'monthly',
});
