Hi Julia!

We use Stripe for both recurring subscriptions and one time charges. The nice 
thing about Stripe is you can set up multiple "Plans" and Stripe will take care 
of the proper prorating when a member switches between them. When the user is 
subscribed to a plan, Stripe automatically charges for the full month up front 
and that day is the basis for the regular payment. I don't know offhand if you 
can configure it to do otherwise.

The software we use to members and payments is my own creation that allows 
members to sign up and self-service their account completely online. I'm in the 
process of cleaning up to be more configurable and usable by other spaces. The 
whole system has been running for a couple months and we've been really happy 
with it. 

Hope that helps!
Paul

We are revamping our keyword search for Blue Ocean Innovation Center, a
coworking community, and wonder what key words would members or prospective
members use.  In an earlier discussion, it was noted that "coworking"
wasn't in the system per se.  We are also hosting regular Kickstarter
community meetups from our members and will help groups utilize
Kickstarter.   What key words are most productive and optimizes the search
to your website?  Thank you.  Becky
