I used to lead Counter Strike 1.6 teams in my teens- I often reflect on how that was some of my early leadership "training".

Good memories of motivating my teams of 15/16/17 year olds to get online at 6/7am in the morning to work on our skills before school, and for epic days during the summer.

Ah, simpler times.

This is epic.

I really hope you are able to get events down from their API soon as well.

We use Recurly, Stripe and FreeAgent. Recurly creates the invoices required for customers (so thats nice and simple).

Our book keeper creates an invoice for each day within FreeAgent, we then attribute the amount that came from Stripe in to it.

We then download the CSV data from Recurly and work out how much VAT should be attributed to the specific invoice.

We also work out currency gains/losses as well here.

FreeAgent lets you add a VAT item to the invoice.

It's a bit of a pain but gives our customers what they need, and it gives us what we need from an accounting perspective.

Recurly stores all of the transactional data if we ever need to go back and audit it for any reason.

Hope this helps!

Need to be able to handle UK only VAT as well.

Recurly is a pain in the ass as it forces you to charge VAT on all EU customers when under UK law we do not need to.

RARGH!

Time Hacking? Really?

FREEAGENT!

Sponsored Pics.

One email per week sent is an ad (on a random day). Build up as much data about each user as you can which you can then offer up to advertisers. E.g. Email all women who like jeans with a sponsored pic.

$lowXX to remove ads.

Also offer backup service for small additional fee.

Partner with a service like blurb to send Instagram photo books to users of their old pics. Perhaps suggest the images that should be used in a book?

Back to beer.

Ah App.Net- I forgot about that.
