I'm thinking drupal but it's a bit of a nightmare setting it up, does anyone know of another off the shelf product that can manage this?

Hi David,

I don't know of an off the shelf product that will do this. Other people may be of more help.

If you are a developer then you can build a simple subscription system:

• that add's the amount of days for each different paid subscription to the database.
• use cron job's to decrease these subscriptions by one as each day goes by.
• At the end of their subscription period your cron jobs can disable their accounts.

Thanks, I'm not sure if it's something that would be worth building from scratch, these things can get complicated.
The subscriptions are there to administer site access levels.
