Start a Next.js SaaS app with authentication, payment and email integration code.

What you can use it for

Start a Next.js SaaS app with authentication, payment and email integration code.

  • Start from reusable authentication and billing integration code.
  • Separate the app, marketing site and API in a monorepo.
Workflow coverage and comparison notes

Use open-source Next.js SaaS starter integration code instead of buying a starter-code licence. Auth, payments and email still require setup and separately supplied services; this does not make operating the finished SaaS free.

Before you switch

Starter code, not a hosted no-code app. Requires developer setup and credentials. Third-party free tiers have limits; payment processing, hosting and API usage can cost money. Different stack and complexity from ShipFast; no paid ShipFast support or community. External shipping account reviewed, not hands-on tested by us.
