Payment Processing
When it comes to setting up how your recurring revenue will be managed, the payment processing and billing management vendors you utilize, your internal payment operations, and your subscriber billing management, there is no ONE right set up or process. Some vendors support one part of the payment process while others support many. The right setup is what works for you and your business, and at the stage of business you are at (or are about to grow into). So, it’s imperative you understand the process, what your subscription business needs, and know the right questions to ask when selecting your payment partners. And, it’s even more imperative to stay current with best practices for managing your recurring payments for your business.
