Hi,
During a project I started working on I realised that there are no cheap (or free) easy-to-set-up recurring billing solutions that help with tax calculation, automation of dunning etc. These are particularly useful for those with new SAAS startups or web-orientated businesses (such as yourselves, perhaps).
I understand it is a bit of a crowded market with Recurly, ChargeBee, Chargify etc. One thing strikes me though - they're all pretty expensive. For someone trying to test out a new SAAS idea or start a small business, those can be cost prohibitive.
I have poured a great deal of thought on the various solutions to common billing issues and iterated over a lot of code (built with Laravel, woo!), but now I need to see if people would actually like to see the service, either in the current form, another form or not at all - so that I know if I am wasting my time.
There are many improvements I believe I could make to existing solutions, but I think one of the main draws in the beginning would be the pricing strategy I would adopt - no monthly fees, just small transaction charges on successful invoices (i.e. We get paid when you do). Simplicity of integration for the developer, and the UI for staff/customers using the system would be the main goal.
If any of you could let me know what you think I would be very grateful. I have thrown up a quick landing page today to give people a bit more background on what I am thinking: http://flexibill.io
Thanks in advance and apologies if this seems like self-promotion - just looking to gauge interest :) CImrie
