Actually, it is a CF-related issue, because I'm looking for a decent solution for handling recurring payments on a CF-based community site. Problem is, I don't want to warehouse credit cards for recurring subscription fees. I'd prefer to leave that to the people who specialize in that type of security for CC databases. I'd like to find a solution that isn't terribly difficult to implement with CF, and perhaps a bit less expensive than iBill or ccNow.
