What are your insights on having a payment processing system that is capable of billing weekly (instead of monthly)?

Hi Lawrence. Thanks for the additional information. That definitely gives me reason to alter my original answer. Giving the clients payment options that 'automatically' happen actually could reduce the administrative hassle and payment collection hassle for all concerned IF handled properly and IF the client is not overbilled/charged (I've seen some instances of these type of automatic payments that weren't timely discontinued when requested, and the client continued to get charged beyond their allotted time.

Personally I would find this unnecessary and possibly annoying to the consumer

Hi Lawrence,

I agree with Susan.

Best,

Susan, Harris, and LaRue:

Thank you all for your Insights and your time giving me feedback!

Let me clarify a little too:
How would your opinion/analysis change if the billing was the normal monthly system but with an optional capability to do weekly charges lets say to accommodate for more membership options?

For example: An option for weekly memberships or financing personal training (where each week the member would be allotted a package of 1,2, or 3x personal training sessions that must be used within that week and the member is billed weekly to make it more affordable instead of buying a straight up $400 + package.

Hello Lawrence,

I see customers who like options; it sounds like a good idea for the client to choose their own payment plan. It doesn't hurt to try.
Take care.
