It is interesting - though the details of subscriptions seems to be limited. Changing the subscription looks to be a manual process. Fees are high too, 5% +$.025 per a transaction is very high.

Really? Could you please expand on why "Australians love and trust PayPal"?

I thought that there was issues with early stage apps using PayPal which is why the likes of Stripe popped up. Especially around reoccurring payments. I may be wrong.

Ask HN: Receiving Payments Outside of USA for SaaS

Hi HN FollowersI love this site and the contributors.Quick question: When testing a SaaS side project what reoccurring payment systems do you use if you are outside of the USA?For instance in the US/Canada there is https://stripe.com/Is there anything similar available to international companies, particularly Australia?Dale

Re:CB Insights Sells List of Dying Tech Startups for $4,895 on Thursday April 04, 2013 @04:45AM (#5491627)
The problem I have with this list is you might not need to raise further capital. Capital for equity is the most expensive form of money compared to say a bond or loan from a bank.

Australia it is down
"Work.io connects employers and knowledge-workers together for highly-skilled one off* projects."
I am sorry but I am confused to what your site does. It looks good, but what is it that it does as I am confused. This is not to slam you. I hope to help you. "Global Expertise, On Demand & Delivered Online" is just buzzwords and does not concisely tell me what you do or what benefit you provide.

For instance I go to planscop.io and I am told "Project Management for Contractors - Planscope is a simple tool that helps you build better client projects and close more deals.". I know it is for contractors for managing projects.

NewRelic.com - "A DEVELOPER’S BEST FRIEND - See how we help 25,000+ customers monitor their apps." I know it is for Developers and it monitors my apps.

Risks.io - "Track Your Project's Risks, Assumptions, Issues and Dependencies Online"

Basically I think work.io does is "Work.io connects employers and knowledge-workers together for highly-skilled one of projects."
