BillingPlatform Accounts Receivable
BillingPlatform Accounts Receivable automates payment collection, credits, refunds, and past-due account management. It is aimed at mid-market and enterprise organizations with complex subscription, usage-based, or multi-entity billing. Billing options include one-time charges, subscriptions, consumption-based, hybrid, and dynamic models. Payment methods include cards, checks, PayPal, direct debit, lockbox, and hosted payment pages; the platform also supports multiple currencies, 3DSv2, SEPA and ACH forms, and cash separation across legal entities. Teams can schedule dunning or trigger actions at past-due thresholds, including notifications, late fees, and suspensions. Credit workflows can consolidate line-item credits into memos or apply earlier billing adjustments as negative invoice charges. Integrations cover CRM, ERP, tax, payment, provisioning, analytics, and data warehouse systems, with Salesforce and SAP among the named examples. The product also provides a customer billing portal, proration controls, and tax automation. It offers SOAP and REST APIs, bulk-load interfaces, FTP/SFTP integrations, and SAML 2.0 support. Pricing is on request, and a free trial is available.
Continuous Command
Continuous Command is a usage metering, rating, and mediation engine for complex consumption pricing. It ingests data from S3, Snowflake, Kafka, REST APIs, CSV files, and data lakes, and can rate that data in place without replication. Real-time rating supports time, volume, type, and location dimensions, plus price uplifts and usage pricing waterfalls. Teams can change rate cards, launch pricing models, and reprocess historical usage without an engineering sprint, according to the maker. Command tracks promotional and purchased credits, configurable limits, overdraft protection, enterprise credit pools, and automated top-ups. It also manages deposits, gift cards, revenue blocks, minimum commitments, and period-end true-ups. Rated charges can flow through APIs to Salesforce, NetSuite, Workday, Sage, Snowflake, and other systems. The product is described as Salesforce native and compatible with Salesforce ARM Digital Wallets and SuiteBilling Prepayments. Continuous says it can process billions of transactions on hyperscaler infrastructure and needs neither a standalone billing system nor a duplicate product catalog. Pricing is custom, scoped to transaction volume and configuration complexity. Implementation is described as days to weeks.
