Laravel SaaS Development Services

Multi tenant SaaS, built on Laravel to scale and bill cleanly.

From a pre-seed MVP to a Series A platform serving thousands of tenants, we build Laravel SaaS products that handle multi-tenancy, subscription billing, feature flags, and real time updates without the architectural debt that catches most teams in year two.

  • Multi tenant architectures using Stancl tenancy, the right pattern for your stage
  • Subscription billing through Cashier with Stripe or Paddle (merchant of record)
  • Feature flags through Pennant for safe rollouts and per tier features
  • 40 plus Laravel SaaS products shipped since 2007

What is Laravel SaaS development

The framework that quietly powers a lot of SaaS today.

// Definition

Laravel SaaS, in plain terms.

// When you need SaaS architecture

Signals you are building a SaaS, not just a web app.

Not sure if you need SaaS architecture or just a web app? 30 minute architecture call. We will tell you honestly which one you actually need.

Multi-tenancy approaches

Three tenancy patterns. We pick the right one.

Multi-tenancy is the single biggest architecture decision in a Laravel SaaS. Get it wrong on day one and you will fight it for years. We use the Stancl tenancy package which supports all three patterns, so the choice is about which tradeoff fits your product, not which package to install.

Recommended for MVP

EdTech · Multi-tenant SaaS

Multi-tenant learning SaaS serving 40K plus learners across 12 countries

"The Acquaint team rebuilt our platform on Laravel 11 with proper multi-tenancy and Cashier billing. We went from one annual contract per customer to recurring monthly billing inside three months of launch. Churn dropped, ARPU went up."

// The Challenge

A scaling EdTech platform was running on a Laravel 6 monolith without proper multi-tenancy. Customers were tracked through subdomains but lived in the same tables, billing was annual invoicing by hand, and the team could not ship new pricing tiers without engineering work. They wanted to convert to recurring SaaS billing, support 3,000 plus tenants on the same architecture, and add white labelling for enterprise customers, without shutting the platform down.

// Our Solution

We migrated the application from Laravel 6 to Laravel 11 with Stancl tenancy in single database multi schema mode, which gave each tenant its own schema while keeping operational overhead low. Cashier with Stripe handled subscription billing across four tiers (Starter, Pro, Team, Enterprise). Pennant managed feature flags per tier and per tenant. Horizon backed Redis queues handled exports, integrations, and weekly digest emails. Filament gave the success team a clean admin to manage tenants, plans, and feature rollouts. Migration was rolled out tenant by tenant over six weeks with zero data loss.

Questions teams ask before starting a web app project.

Cannot find your answer here? Speak directly to our team. No sales pitch.

  • What is a Laravel web application?

    A Laravel web application is a server rendered or hybrid web app built using the Laravel PHP framework. It can serve interactive dashboards, multi tenant SaaS products, customer portals, internal business systems, marketplace platforms, or anything that needs structured server side logic with a polished user interface. Laravel handles routing, database access, authentication, queues, real time events, and testing out of the box, so engineering teams ship faster than writing raw PHP and end up with code that is much easier to maintain over the years.

  • How long does it take to build a web application with Laravel?

    A focused MVP usually ships in 6 to 10 weeks with two engineers. A mid sized business application with several modules, third party integrations, and a polished admin lands in 3 to 5 months. Enterprise web platforms with multi tenancy, compliance work, and heavy custom logic typically run 6 to 12 months. The timeline depends on feature scope, decision speed, and how complete the specification is on day one. We share a week by week estimate after the discovery call.

  • What types of web apps can be built with Laravel?

    Almost any server backed web product. The common types we ship are multi tenant SaaS platforms, internal business systems, customer portals, marketplace and listing platforms, content management systems, fintech and payment backends, learning platforms, healthcare and telehealth tools, real time dashboards, and APIs that power mobile apps. Laravel scales from a single founder MVP all the way to enterprise grade systems running across multiple servers.

  • Is Laravel suitable for large web applications?

    Yes. Laravel is used in production by FedEx, Disney Hotstar, BBC, Razorpay, and Pfizer, all of which run very large web applications. For scale, we use queue workers with Horizon, Redis caching, read replicas, horizontal scaling on Forge or Vapor, and asynchronous job processing. We have shipped Laravel platforms serving 40,000 plus concurrent users and 80,000 plus loan applications per month on a single architecture.

  • Does Laravel work for real time web applications?

    Absolutely. Laravel ships with native real time support through Reverb (the official WebSocket server), broadcasting events through Pusher or Ably, and Livewire 3 for reactive UI without a separate SPA. Common real time features we build include live notifications, collaborative dashboards, chat, live order tracking, and presence indicators. For deeper real time work we pair Laravel with Livewire and Alpine.js. More on our Livewire development page.

  • How much does Laravel web application development cost?

    A focused Laravel web app MVP starts around $12,000 to $20,000. Most mid sized business apps land between $30,000 and $90,000. Enterprise platforms with multi tenancy, compliance, and integrations typically run $80,000 to $250,000. Dedicated Laravel developers at Acquaint Softtech start at $22 per hour or $3,200 per month full time. A full breakdown sits on our Laravel development cost page.

  • How do you scale a Laravel web application?

    Scaling Laravel is well understood. We profile bottlenecks with Telescope and Pulse, move heavy work to queues processed by Horizon, cache aggressively with Redis, introduce read replicas for the database, and horizontally scale the application layer through Forge or Vapor. For very large workloads we add CDN caching, edge functions, and asynchronous event driven flows. We have taken Laravel applications from a 12 second cold start to sub second response times in three sprints.

  • Web application vs website in Laravel, what is the difference?

    A website is mostly informational with limited interactivity. A web application has logged in users, data that persists, business logic, and workflows. Both can be built with Laravel, but a web application uses Laravel's full strength (authentication, authorisation, database modelling, queues, events, real time, testing) while a website often runs on a much lighter setup. If you log in, perform actions, and the system remembers state, you are looking at a web application.

  • Do you build greenfield web apps or also rebuild existing ones?

    Both. Roughly 60 percent of our Laravel work is greenfield, where we take a fresh idea or specification and ship the first production version. The other 40 percent is replatform work, where we modernise legacy PHP or migrate from CodeIgniter, WordPress, or older Laravel versions. For replatform projects we maintain feature parity, run shadow testing, and cut over with zero data loss. More on our migration services page.
