Yep. It's awesome that Dan mentions us and has a very valid use case with Spreedly. That said the use case we primarily solve for is marketplaces and platforms working across multiple gateways or third party API's (Expedia, StubHub etc) simultaneously. So I can see why you'd feel $99 was too high in your case. (Spreedly CEO)
Do you think there's enough interest to do a "low usage" (i.e. cheaper/free) option where you aren't hopping gateways and just want to use Spreedly as a processor abstraction layer? I'd love to investigate this for some little side projects that aren't tied to a processor, but $99/mo would be prohibitive.
Hey vcarl when we launched 2 years ago we actually had a $10 per month plan for the first 90 - 100 days after launch specifically to address this type of market. It didn't take. And honestly it wasn't really needed with Stripe and Braintree now in the market. Worse we had some perception problems from larger prospects around a service that was just $10 per month. So we moved up market to a higher price point to service marketplaces and platforms where our story really did resonate.
