# Monetization with StellarTools

> The Stripe-like payment primitives for your Stellar products.

Sorokit handles your frontend integration, but if you are building a commercial product, you need more than just raw contract hooks. You need a way to manage customers, handle recurring revenue, and orchestrate complex market dynamics.

### Meet StellarTools

StellarTools is a suite of payment primitives designed for developers and merchants who want to monetize on Stellar without building a custom billing engine from scratch.

* Pre-built Checkouts: Stop building custom payment forms. Use our hosted or embedded checkouts to accept XLM, USDC, and other assets instantly.
* Subscriptions: The first robust recurring payment engine for the Stellar ecosystem. Manage plans, trials, and cancellations out of the box.
* Marketplace Primitives: Building a DEX or an NFT platform? Use our marketplace APIs to handle splits, fees, and multi-party payouts.
* Production-Grade Webhooks: Get notified in your backend when a payment lands. No more manual polling or missing transaction events.

### Why use both?

When you combine Sorokit with StellarTools, you go from an empty repo to a revenue generating app in minutes, not days.

* 1. Build the UI: Use Sorokit to create a beautiful, type-safe interface for your smart contracts.
* 2. Handle the Identity: Use the Sorokit Identity Provider to connect users via their favorite wallets.
* 3. Collect the Revenue: Use StellarTools to manage the checkout flow and subscription lifecycle.
