Payment Processors, Subscription Billing

Hi everyone. I just recently joined this club, and this is a great place to be.

I've developed a male foot fetish website and want to provide subscriptions for paid members to view more explicit and exclusive content. I also want to be able to sell "stuff", like videos, t-shirts, and other related merchandise.

I've looked at CCBill, and while they offer processing for membership-based adult sites, they don't process payment for tangible items. Places that offer merchant accounts don't seem to provide membership processing services, it seems, unless I've not searched their sites thoroughly.

I've been searching the archives on this forum, and have gotten some helpful guidelines and information. As I understand it, you must have a merchant account to sell physical items, but I guess with that, you can sell whatever you want, including subscriptions. I'm wondering what others out there are using to sell subscriptions, as well as merchandise. I may just go with the paid membership option, for now, and deal with the tangibles later.

Any suggestions are welcome.

Thanks,

Larry

i recommend you use ccbill for subscriptions and someone else for tangible goods. keep in mind that using ccbill takes care of your customer service calls and technical things like installation. later, if you want an affiliate program, you can do that through ccbill without any additional cost, and very little additional work.

Thanks to all of you that responded with suggestions, welcome, etc. I'll be looking into CCBill for their service. As soon as I get the info I need for affiliate stuff, and understand a little bit more about it,I'll let you know. Thanks, twinker for the point to clips4sale.
