Ask N.YC: Are there alternatives to Braintree's remote credit card storage?

[falsestprophet]

I am building an app that requires recurring billing at somewhat unpredictable intervals. So, I need to find a service that securely stores credit card data.

Braintree offers such a service, but they require $100k per month volume. Do any of you know of an alternative?

Many merchant service gateway providers offer recurring billing services and APIs. I haven't used it yet, but I'm pretty sure Authorize.net has this capability (I remember getting mail about it a few years ago). I'm not endorsing Authorize.net, but I suspect you can find many merchant gateways that offer this kind of thing.

This service for subscription payment processing launched recently. I haven't tried it, but it looks interesting -- especially if one wants to get their subscription app out the door quickly.
