I'am a startup looking for a billing platform?

Anyone heard of the SeedEdition? They are giving the first $1M in revenue for free.

Never heard of SeedEdition, sorry.

Chargify has a really flexible structure for configuring how you bill, with an api that lets you hook into it pretty easily.

The main drawback is, at least the last time I looked at them, the cost structure. It very quickly gets expensive, although depending on how much you charge, it might not be an issue.

You can always roll that cost into your actual offering, as well

Consider taking a look at Samurai by FeeFighters https://samurai.feefighters.com/

Blog post on someone using Seed Edition. They sound pretty happy...

Thanks everyone. Ya I have been hearing SeedEdition has the same features as Chargify. I will definitely look into everything.

https://stripe.com/

Correct me if i'm wrong, but isn't stripe more of a payment gateway, where as what hes asking is more about structuring recurring billing based on a contract?

In other words, he could actually do the charge through stripe, but he couldn't generate the invoice by which he comes to the amount that he charges.

Maybe i'm wrong.

What's a link to the SeedEdition website?
