Whether you’re exploring Meteroid for the first time or preparing for a production deployment, we recommend following these steps to test and validate your setup safely and efficiently.
1

Create Your Meteroid Account

Start by creating an account on Meteroid. This gives you access to the billing platform and all the tools needed to manage subscriptions, invoicing, and payments.
2

Choose a Safe Testing Environment

We strongly recommend testing in a non-production environment before going live. You have two options:
  • Development Environment: Ideal for custom setups or teams integrating Meteroid into their own infrastructure
  • Sandbox Environment (with sample data): A preconfigured environment populated with mock data, designed to help you visualize how Meteroid works for your business
To confirm you’re in the right environment (also called a tenant), go to Settings > General and check the Tenant slug — this will be “dev” for Development, “sandbox” for Sandbox, or “prod” for Production.

Set Up Your Invoicing Entity & Payment Methods

Before testing or going live, make sure your invoicing setup is complete:
  • Invoicing Entity Details — Go to Settings > Merchant and ensure all billing information is accurate. This will be reflected on all generated invoices.
  • Connect a Payment Provider — If needed, connect Meteroid to your preferred payment provider via Settings > Integrations. Meteroid currently supports Stripe.
  • Define Payment Methods — Go to Settings > Payment Methods and choose the options available to your customers (Credit Card, Direct Debit, or Bank Transfer).

Create Your First Subscriptions and Invoices

Once your environment and billing setup are ready, you can simulate your first usage:
  • Create Metrics (if your pricing model is usage-based) via Product Catalog > Metrics
  • Create Plans under Product Catalog > Plans with your desired pricing, trial, and billing configuration
  • Add Customers in the Customers tab
  • Assign Plans to Customers by creating a Subscription from Billing > Subscriptions
  • View and Manage Invoices in Billing > Invoices — Meteroid automatically generates invoices based on each subscription
