Ask HN: OpenGateway for recurring billing instead of Chargify/Recurly/Spreedly?

9 pointsby tworatsover 14 years ago
I ran across http://opengateway.net/ , which is a $99 installable framework for recurring billing. In light of the recent Chargify pricing changes, it seems an attractive alternative since it's a one-time upfront cost and no monthly charges - in other words, the pricing is a known quantity.<p>Apparently it doesn't store credit card info locally, which was my biggest concern.<p>Has anyone tried it? If so, what did you think?

Hmm this looks like a great alternative to <a href="http://amember.com" rel="nofollow">http://amember.com</a> which I have been using for a long time (and am not particularly fond of - old code, ugly UI).<p>I basically use Amember to manage member subscriptions e.g. what plan they are on, sending them transactional emails, and handling the callback from the payment gateway (in my case PayPal) - and providing the API hook to build into my app.<p>If OpenGateway can replace all of that, it's a done deal. I'm switching!

Looks like a good solution; we have to make a decision re: billing soon so we would also be interested in others' experiences with this.
