Need brutal customer reviews for my first Saas

I was also a typical SWE 9-5, used to rant with coworkers about "one day I'll start my own thing," go home, doomscroll, sleep, repeat. Classic.

Then one night I had the thought every founder apparently has at 2am: founders run 3-4 companies simultaneously and somehow survive, why am I acting like I can't build something while keeping my job.

So I picked telecom, since that's actually my domain, and decided to build a B2C eSIM platform for travelers and travel groups.

Obviously Airalo, Holafly, Saily etc already own this space and they're good at it. Good reviews, solid infra, real support teams. But they're also expensive, and honestly that's not even their fault. When you're burning money on ads, infra, and a support org, slapping a 2-3x margin on eSIMs is just the math working out.

I don't have any of that overhead. It's just me. No ad spend, no bloated infra, no team to pay yet. So I'm running on a ~1.3x margin instead, which the big guys structurally can't match right now (margin yes, infra/scale, very good but can improve a lot on that part).

Here's Kyro eSIM: https://www.kyroesim.com/

Please break it. I want the brutal reviews, not the nice ones. UX complaints, pricing complaints, feature missing complaints, "why does this button do nothing" complaints, all of it.

If you've got international travel coming up, give it a shot. I offer best pricing + 24/7 support, no asterisks.

PS: app is built, just sitting in App Store / Play Store review purgatory like the rest of us.

Payment gateways for Pakistani Saas

I've been looking to integrate payment gateway for my checkout page. And it's highly difficult for Pakistani founders to find a reliable payment processors. I've applied for

  • Lemonsqueezy(they don't support teleco niche)
  • Paddle
  • Polar-ish

But all rejected my application either because of my product category(teleco) or region(Pakistan). Is there anyone from Pakistan who has integrated some reliable payment processors in websites and it's working well for them. I've been looking into Pakistan-native PSP options as well these days i.e Safepay, Xpay. Are they good and reliable?
