You probably need to use a billing support system like Whmcs at:
http://whmcs.com/
 or
ClientExec at http://www.newedge.com/
both at 15.95 monthly or $200. or so for one-time.
They support practically all pay systems    PayPal , Authorize Net   even 
google checkout
I have a reseller account where ClientExec is $4.00 a month
