I'd highly recommend using Chargify instead of manually talking to a
gateway. Their gem exposes their JSON API as an ActiveModel resource, so you
can literally do, on account creation:
subscription = Chargify::Subscription.new(credit_card_info_etc)
if !subscription.save
raise ActiveRecord::Rollback
else
update_attributes!(
:subscription_id => subscription.id,
:customer_id => subscription.customer.id
)
end
And then they handle all the ongoing billing. It's awesome. And cheap: if
you have above 10 subscriptions it's about $1/subscription/month, and
cheaper the more you have.
(Not affiliated of course, I just like them a lot.)
