I had a python/plotly deskapp that a friend wanted access to, so I made a webapp. Now more people are asking access. It’s hosted on Heroku. I want to make it into a saas. Is Webflow a good choice?
I just want a gatekeeping site with customer management tools and built in billing w/ CC processing. My skills are not in eCommerce but in my app development and I wish to keep it that way.
Thank you for reading!
Webflow is phenomenal as a page designer but it doesn’t have built-in features [going forward] that would support your use case.
It currently still has a User Accounts feature but it’s EOL and will be removed completely by early 2026.
If your access-gating and billing are simple, e.g. a monthly subscription and not metered-usage, then I’d recommend Memberstack as your membership system on top of Webflow.
From there you’d simply gate an /app page, which would IFRAME your app, and can pass in some querystring params as a unique user identifier or app settings.
Thank you! Yes, subscriptions will be monthly. I’ll checkout Memberstack. Sounds like a workable solution.
