Ask HN: How Handle Enterprise Billing?

1 points by thedangler 40 days ago | 2 comments

I'll be launching a service soon and it has some pretty basic billing plans. Free and 3 others. However, I do need a billing plan for enterprise clients who will board their own clients.

Each plan has its features and restrictions.

I was thinking of having enterprise choose which billing plan they want per account they register at a lower price. That way the user is restricted to those features and limits.

For example each team would get the advanced features at $2/m instead of $5. OR Give it to the enterprise for free and they pass the cost onto their clients at a reduced rate.

They would probably pass those costs onto their clients.

Unless there is a better way of doing it, I'm looking for suggestions.

thanks

Every business is different and this is something you iterate on in conjunction with your feature set. That being said, big customers typically look for purchase orders and bank transfers to avoid middleman fees. You don't want to give 3% of a $1M contract to the likes of Stripe or Mastercard.
