A startup client of mine is looking to launch a SaaS with multiple features/options that would increase/decrease monthly billing.
The simplest solution would be best.

What is your question specifically about? The design, best implementation idea? – Robert DeBoer Aug 31 '09 at 13:33

2What's your question? Are you looking for an out-of-the-box solution? A payment gateway? Tips on writing your own system? – ceejayoz Aug 31 '09 at 13:34

1They want to increase bills? Send me their address and I'll send them a bill every month! :-) – Wim ten Brink Aug 31 '09 at 15:00

I would check on each login when was the last time the user paid, if it's more than a month ago, you make the user go to a payment page (paypal, a cgi from your client's bank...) and have him pay the amount you calculated from the options he uses this last month.
Maybe a simpler solution is to have the user paying "at the beginning" instead : each month he choose what options/features he will use during the next month and then pay for that.

If you're looking for a third-party system to hook into, Spreedly looks pretty promising.

This seems to be exactly what i was looking for. Sorry my question was a little hard to read. I'm on site with one client trying to post without being seen for another. – Jeremy Boyd Sep 01 '09 at 13:12
