prorata and free domains

[arteryplanet]

Hi guys,

 

Wondering how are you working out the free domains with certain hosting periods like yearly with the prorata billing? We are thinking to switch from aniversary to prorata but wondering how to work out the free domains thingy. Also are there any easy way in the switch or this continue being manual work?

 

Any idea?

 

Thanx in advance

Hi,

In my experience prorata confuses customers more than anniversary. I don't think there's any reason why free domains won't work with prorata.

Thanx for the comment.

 

The reason that im thinking is because in anniversary the system generate the invoice for the hosting + free domain, if is paid the domain is renewed.

In the prorata how it handle that if the domain and the hosting due date do not match? if someone signup for hosting on the 20th and you have prorata date on 1st, next period you have the risk the people get the domain renewed for free without paying the hosting.

Good point. Did you ever figure that out?
