Show HN: Time Travel for Billing Periods
Hi HN,
Lago (YC S21 = Open-source metering and usage-based billing) founder here.
Billing cycles are often a source of engineering complexity and confusion, so we made billing periods flexible in Lago:
- If you want to migrate existing customers to Lago, you can set a billing period in the past.
- If you just signed a new contract that will start in two weeks, you can set a start date in the future
Other elements of flexibility:
- Switch from 'calendar' to 'anniversary billing periods' within Lago
- Assign multiple plans to a customer, and meter and charge usage separately (e.g., if your pricing looks like Heroku, Shopify or Webflow, for instance)
