Hi all, Just wanted to reopen this discussion to ask if anyone has direct experience with Recurly. Any experience out there?
Recurly has a couple of features which make it better for us than Chargify, but we've been put off by the fact it only integrates with Payflow Pro. If you've got any experience to offer -- positive or negative -- we'd be keen to hear it. Paypal has a deservedly bad rap for its APIs but we weren't sure whether this is still a concern when Recurly is handling the integration.
