For clarification, the pricing we have right now for 650 is the same
pricing we would have at GigE. Over GigE would be slightly lower. I mean
seriously, is that clarified enough? Does it matter when the thread is
about credit card processors?

Actually, you responded “Yup, per month” when TJ asked if it was
“$66,500 for a gige” so you strongly implied it. I agree that you
didn’t technically say that you actually pay that much though. I do
have to admit that $42k per month is still a pretty heft bill!

Note, I didn't say we were paying 65k/mo for bandwidth, I said we were
paying 65/Mbps. We normally don't use more than 480-ish at peak, but
have 650Mbps, which includes transport and content.
We should break around 1.5M gross this year, and projected 2.2M by
next year, give or take.

How can you employ 9 people and pay 65k a month for bandwidth and

The in house billing / accounting people - we have several,
most are multi-role.
One is our office manager, and deals primarily with billing
issues, new account sales, equipment purchasing, etc. He is
also our main office-based POC for tech support.
Then we have a bookkeeper, she deals with things on the
"interior" business side... employee pay stuff,
shareholder/board functions, stock certificate crap, meeting
minutes, etc.
We have another part-timer who also helps with sales /
collections / etc, answering phones, (we have 4 lines plus
tech support phone that rotates between the salaried
employees) [we do have a collections company people get sent
to after 90 days, we cut people off at 60 days]
People that want to review their payment histories, in our
experience, normally want an explanation of their billing
cycle, etc... they come in when they want that. One time
payments are done online, but some people keep an account with
us and call to process (we don't keep their card info).
Paypal does all of our unifi hotspot stuff, and auto-drops
right into QuickBooks.
We're around 1500 subs, and incorporated.

When they don't pay they get shut off.
They can review their payment histories.
They can change their billing information (and do one-time
payments) without affecting your employees.
You could probably drop the in-house billing/accounting
people.
Hotspot type services can integrate right into the same
platform (without needing UniFi's walled garden).
I suspect most of us still use QuickBooks, just not for
our recurring business. I still use it for turn-key,
consulting, etc.
Even if you don't buy, I'd recommend having each of the
billing platforms take you on a tour. You may notice other
things to improve your operation.

May I ask why?
Most of our subs are on autopay, so we set it and forget
about it.
We also do all of our company stuff in quickbooks, and
have inhouse billing/accounting people.
