Monetizing Apps Built with Cursor, Bolt, and Lovable
The vibe coding revolution
25% of YC W25 batch is 95%+ AI-generated code. Cursor, Bolt, Lovable, and Replit let anyone build a working product in hours. The bottleneck isn't building — it's monetizing. Stripe requires a company. Paddle takes weeks. See our vibe-coded apps segment.
The Teleport solution
1. Sign up (30 seconds, no company)
2. Create a payment link for your app
3. Embed it or share it
4. Accept crypto (1%) and cards (8-11%) from 200+ countries
Or connect Teleport MCP to Cursor and say "add a $9/month payment button."
Why not Stripe?
Stripe works in 46 countries and requires a company. If you're an individual in Berlin, Lagos, or Buenos Aires who just built an app with Cursor — you can't use Stripe. But you can use Teleport. See Teleport vs Stripe. Check all competitors for alternatives.
