I'm currently developing a subscription management system for my SaaS project and I want to use Stripe. Unfortunately, I'm facing issues accessing the API because Stripe isn't fully supported in Kenya. While I know there are other payment APIs available, I'm convinced that Stripe would be the best fit for my needs. I'm looking for any suggestions on how I can overcome these location restrictions and access Stripe.

I've faced the same challenge before. Typically, you can either register a business in a country where Stripe operates so you can use that business address for the API, or consider using a merchant of record like Paddle or Lemon Squeezy. From my experience, Paddle is a solid choice!
Are you planning to be the one accepting payments directly? That could impact your options.
Having worked at Stripe previously, I really think Paddle could be your best bet if you're in Kenya.
