There are other providers like SAASY.com, 2Checkout.com who provide a bundled merchant account + payment gateway service along with subscription billing.
Unless your application actually does billing as its CORE FUNCTION, you definitely, definitely, want to get billing OUT of your app!
Get your business to find another solution for that function (or outsource it to e.g. Salesforce.com - most others do). Your development team should be working on the product you sell, not internally reinventing wheels.
I've heard a lot of good things about CheddarGetter for recurring billing. A friend of mine who did web design for a local e-mag said they ended up being the least expensive given the size of his little subscription pool... dunno how big you are but it might be worth checking out. Also, every once in a while I see retweets of them answering questions in my twitter feed... so that's probably a good sign.
EDIT: A quick check shows me it's on rails & open source as well.
Recurly http://recurly.com is also being used by many companies to launch professional subscription billing solutions. No setup fees, no cancellation fees. Easy to deploy.
我们选择它们的另一个原因是我们可以选择使用他们自己的网关，因此不必像 PayPal Standard 那样让客户离开我们的应用程序来付款。另外，它们允许无限的交易和客户——这对我们不断增长的产品有好处——它们的功能涵盖了我们所有的经常性需求（更改订阅、多张卡、月初计费等）。他们还有一个记录良好的 API 和一个很好的包装库（甚至还有 Ruby 代码！），我相信一旦我们完成所有设置，我们就会深入研究它们。
We use CheddarGetter for a SaaS we're releasing at my office, and although it took a lot of research to get to that point, I'm really glad we're going with them. Their support staff was incredible - they answered our calls right away, and have a good knack of walking you through the whole billing process, which can be really confusing without some help.
Another reason we chose them was because we could opt to use their own gateway, and so didn't have to make customers leave our app to pay, like PayPal Standard would make you do. Plus, they allow for unlimited transactions and customers - which is good for our growing product - and their features cover all our recurring needs (changing subscriptions, multiple cards, billing at the start of the month, etc). They also have a well-documented API and a good wrapper library (even with code for Ruby!), which I'm sure we'll be digging into once we get everything set up.

您可以将整个 SaaS 方面的事情外包。
还有其他提供商，如 SAASY.com、2Checkout.com，提供捆绑的商家帐户 + 支付网关服务以及订阅计费。
You could just outsource the whole SaaS side of things.

除非您的应用程序实际上将计费作为其核心功能，否则您绝对、绝对希望从您的应用程序中获取计费！
让您的企业找到该功能的另一个解决方案（或将其外包给 Salesforce.com - 大多数其他公司都是这么做的）。您的开发团队应该致力于您销售的产品，而不是在内部重新发明轮子。

我听说过很多关于 CheddarGetter 定期计费的好消息。我的一位为当地电子杂志做网页设计的朋友说，考虑到他的订阅池的规模，它们最终是最便宜的……不知道你有多大，但可能值得一试。另外，每隔一段时间我就会看到他们在我的推特上回答问题的转发……所以这可能是一个好兆头。
编辑：快速检查显示它在轨道上并且在轨道上。也是开源的。

我们将 CheddarGetter 用于我们在办公室发布的 SaaS，尽管我们进行了大量研究才达到这一点，但我真的很高兴我们与他们合作。他们的支持人员令人难以置信 - 他们立即接听我们的电话，并且很擅长引导您完成整个计费过程，如果没有帮助，这可能会让人非常困惑。
