Is there any FOSS to manage subscriptions? My particular need is to trigger an API call upon subscription to start the service, and then bill subscribers based on their usage. The service would report the usage to the subscription manager.

It would be awesome if the manager also provides a user area for subscribers to manage their subscription, pay bills and change a few settings, create support tickets, etc.

    Exactly, If enabling a paid service, it should trigger consumption and billing. If only using free stuff, the service stays free and the final invoice shows 0 money to pay.

    However, unpon initial subscription to the platform/service, the subscription manger should trigger a webhook to start the actual service. You know just spins some containers.

    There is killbill.io but it seems too clumsy.

    Something like Zuora or Chargebee is what I am after.
