Premium Payments

I was just thinking...

It would be nice if for the premium accounts if you could send in your payment at least by quarterly instead of yearly ... I mean 300+ dollars is sort of hard to throw out all at once and not everyone is blessed with the possession of a credit card or debit card. I think they may have more people going premium if it was easier to pay for. I know that it costs them more to process payments by anything less than yearly, but I think with the added income that premiums are bringing in they could at least make it possible for them, as another perk to going premium. I mean one quarterly isn't much less than a basic for a year. Anyway just a thought.

Though we still prefer yearly checks, we're now taking quarterly checks for payment, at least until we come up with a non-credit card method for taking payments on the 'net. It's $79.95 for a quarter of premium.

Why not just pay by check online? Some sites have a secure way of doing it. I dont know if you have researched on it, but I pay my school loans by check online. :D

It's all about integration.

Can we easily plug the payment system into our user system, so that payments can be automated, or do we have to introduce the possibilities of delay and user error because we can't have computers talking to computers?

But, I'm always willing to hear about online systems that might be more convenient than what we currently offer ... for whatever reason.

I was curious - would it be possible maybe to offer 6 month packages? I can't afford to pay yearly, I just never have that much cash. But I can afford to pay half of it. :) Just curious.
