Polar offers payment infrastructure for selling SaaS and digital products, directly aligning with the concept of a payments platform. It explicitly mentions features like 'Digital Products & SaaS Billing' for payment processing and subscription management, 'Robust Event Ingestion API' for developer integration, 'Customer Management' which implies dashboard and reporting, and 'Global Merchant of Record' which handles taxes. The website also highlights 'Integrated Customer Portal' and 'Granular & Reliable Webhook Handler'.

It also mentions 'Withdraw with Stripe Connect' indicating integration with Stripe's payout capabilities.
