Ask HN: Subscription management/billing software?

7 pointsby tylercarbonealmost 17 years ago
We're currently in the final phases of development on a web startup, and are getting ready to sort out the logistics of providing subscription based software. I'm wondering if anyone has any comments on software to manage subscriptions &#38; handle monthly billing? I've seen quite a bit of it out there, but don't have any experience with it.<p>Any suggestions would be really appreciated.<p>Thanks in advance,

We use BlinkSale (<a href="http://www.blinksale.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.blinksale.com</a>) for invoicing and like it very much. They have a nice interface for creating templates and recurring invoices as well. Though, as I began digging deeper into this area, I've begun to think that there are a lot of sites that do exactly the same thing in exactly the same way. Go with one that's free to begin with, and pay if you like it I suppose.

BTW I have also heard about Zuora. Have not used it, but you may want to visit their website to learn more.<p><a href="http://www.zuora.com/products/z-billing-product.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.zuora.com/products/z-billing-product.html</a><p>&#60;disclaimer: I met the founder once, but have no affiliation with the company.&#62;
