Before adoption
The runtime expects PHP 8.3+ plus MariaDB and Redis
The README and Composer metadata require PHP 8.3 or newer and MariaDB-related extensions, while the Docker Compose example includes MariaDB and Redis.
Operators are responsible for payment credentials and financial data
Self-hosting means protecting payment-provider secrets, customer and invoice data, backups, updates, and queue processing.

Supplemental curator note
Paymenter is an MIT-licensed billing platform for hosting providers, covering service sales, subscriptions, invoices, and payment integrations. It requires PHP 8.3+, MariaDB, Redis, and related services, with a Docker Compose example available. Production deployments still need careful payment credentials, queues, and database backups.
