I have given this a fair amount of thought on how this could be done. I have found out a website that uses a subscription feature much like BYOND. But payment is available through SMS texting. The website is http://www.tradecardsonline.com (I have tried it myself and the text messaging works.) They use a payment system similar to paypal except it is meant for payment through SMS text messaging and/or Home Phone Calls.

The payment system is called DaoPay (I am partially sure that atleast some if not most of you have heard of it.) The website link is http://www.daopay.com/ To my experience, you are able to set-up a service in which your customers pay you with their own mobile phone credit. (This service also supports home phone calls)

I think this feature should be considered because it would make it a great deal easier for people on byond to purchase byond membership.

I am aware that this may cause problems for byond because parents may demand for a refund in the case that their child has paid with this method without their permission.

To prevent this from happening I suggest that you warn the person who is about to purchase a byond membership via this service before hand that they WILL/MAY be banned from byond temporarily (of course) and/or have their byond membership stripped from their account.

A suitable payment price for this service (if implemented into byond) could be:

SMS Text(s):

1.50 - 1 Month
3.00 - 3 Months
6.00 - 6 Months

Home Phone:

2.00 - 1 Month
4.00 - 5 Months
8.00 - 9 Months

Something along the lines to that anyway.
