Services · Ecommerce development · Inventory management subscription sites
Codeeo handles inventory management subscription website development Birmingham software vendors use to sell their stock control product online. We build the pricing pages, sign up, recurring billing and customer account area that turn a demo request from a Black Country fabricator or a Jewellery Quarter workshop into a paying subscription. Plans can be priced by warehouse, by SKU band or by user, and every renewal, upgrade and VAT invoice runs without your team touching a spreadsheet.
Your buyers are practical people. A works manager in Tipton or a trade distributor off the M6 wants to see what a plan includes, what happens when they add a second unit, and how they will be invoiced. The site answers those questions plainly and then takes the payment.

What the platform covers
Inventory software is bought differently from a design tool or a chat app. The person signing up usually has a real stock problem: a stocktake that never reconciles, components spread across two units in Smethwick and Oldbury, or finished pieces that leave a Hockley workshop for hallmarking and vanish from the books. They want proof that the product fits their operation before they hand over card details or set up a Direct Debit.
So the subscription site has two jobs. It has to explain plans in the units your customers think in, such as locations, SKUs, order lines or scanner users, and it has to bill accurately as those numbers change month to month. Below are the parts we build for Birmingham vendors, in roughly the order a buyer meets them.
Good inventory management SaaS website development Birmingham buyers respond to is mostly about honesty: real plan limits, real screenshots of the stock screens, and a price that matches the invoice.
Plans described by warehouses, bin locations, SKU bands or users, with a comparison table that shows exactly which features sit in each tier. A small calculator lets a buyer enter their own counts and see which plan applies, so a firm with one unit in Aston and another in Walsall is not left guessing.
Fewer sales calls spent explaining which plan a prospect needs.
Account creation, company details, VAT number capture and a first run checklist that walks the new customer through importing items and setting up locations. If you offer a trial as part of your product, its start, its limits and the point it converts are all handled by the billing rules you set.
New accounts reach their first stock import without a support ticket.
Engineering groups and multi-site distributors often want a quote, a purchase order and annual terms. We build a sales assisted path where your team issues a quote online, the buyer accepts it, and the subscription starts on the agreed terms without anyone rekeying the deal.
Big accounts sign without leaving the billing system behind.
Many stock software sales in the region start at an exhibition at the NEC or through an accountant or reseller. We build campaign landing pages and partner referral links that carry the source into the subscription, so you can see which event or partner produced paying accounts and pay any referral commission from real billing data.
Events and partners judged on revenue, not on badge scans.
Monthly and annual billing through providers such as Stripe Billing or Chargebee, with proration when a customer adds a warehouse mid cycle or drops a user. Card payments meet Strong Customer Authentication at sign up, and later renewals run as merchant initiated charges so customers are not interrupted.
Plan changes bill correctly the first time.
Many Midlands businesses prefer to pay by Bacs Direct Debit or against an invoice. We integrate GoCardless or your provider's Direct Debit option, issue VAT invoices with your registration details, and record bank transfer payments against open invoices.
Customers pay the way their accounts team already works.
If you charge for order lines processed, scans or integrations, your application reports usage to the billing system through an API. Customers see their running totals in the account area before the invoice arrives, which heads off the disputes that surprise overage charges cause.
Usage based charges that customers can check for themselves.
Dunning emails, retry schedules matched to card and Direct Debit rules, in app banners and a clear grace period before features are limited. Stock data is never deleted for a missed payment; access simply pauses until the account is settled.
Recovered revenue without upsetting customers mid stocktake.
Plan changes, seat management, payment method updates, invoice downloads and cancellation in one place. Changes follow the rules you set, such as upgrades applying now and downgrades at renewal, and each change is logged with who made it.
Admin requests handled by customers, not your support desk.
Paid invoices flow into Xero, Sage or QuickBooks, and new subscriptions, upgrades and cancellations update your CRM so the sales team sees which accounts are growing. Your finance team gets one source of truth for recurring revenue.
Month end close without chasing three systems.
Who this is for
Birmingham has a mix of established software houses serving manufacturing and newer product teams spinning out of the Colmore Row and Digbeth startup scene. Their starting points differ, but the problem is the same: a good stock product held back by a sales and billing process built for a handful of customers. These are the four situations we see most. Each one needs different subscription platform development Birmingham teams can run day to day, so we size the build to the situation rather than selling the same package to everyone.
Your product handles components, batches and works orders for Black Country engineering firms, but every renewal is a manual invoice and a chasing email. We move existing customers onto recurring billing with their current terms preserved, then open self-serve sign up for new ones. Your account managers keep the relationships; the system simply stops them spending the first week of every month on invoices.
Existing contracts migrate without forcing customers onto new prices.
Jewellery Quarter businesses track metal weight, stones and pieces out for repair or assay. Your pricing probably reflects pieces tracked or users rather than warehouses. We build plans and an onboarding flow in their language, with examples a goldsmith recognises, so small firms can buy without a sales call.
A founding team with a working product and a few pilot customers needs a pricing page, checkout and account area quickly, without building billing from scratch. We set up a hosted billing provider, a lean marketing site and the minimum account features, leaving room to grow. Usage metering, partner billing and multi currency plans can follow once paying customers show you which ones matter.
Start with the billing rules you are sure of, add the rest later.
Distributors along the M42 and M6 run several depots and want per depot pricing, annual commitments and purchase order numbers on invoices. We build multi location plans, PO capture at checkout and invoice layouts their accounts payable teams accept without query.
Working together
Codeeo has delivered 200+ projects across the UAE and the US with a team of 80+ across Dubai, Riyadh and Karachi, and we are rated 4.7 from 23 Google reviews. We do not have a Birmingham office. Discovery, design reviews and sprint demos with Birmingham clients run by video call, and every decision on pricing, billing and scope is written down so your finance lead, product owner and sales team are working from the same document. Cost depends mainly on how complex your billing rules are, how many systems we connect and how many existing customers need migrating.
Our inventory management billing integration services Birmingham vendors use most often connect a billing provider to the product and to accounting, which is where most of the hidden effort sits. We tell you early if a cheaper route, such as a hosted checkout instead of a custom one, would do the job.
A defined build with a deadline
We agree what the product has to do, write it down with a price and a date, and build exactly that. Changes are priced before they are made, not discovered on the invoice.
A product that keeps evolving
Named engineers who work your hours, join your standups and stay on the codebase. You direct the backlog; we own the quality of what ships.
Something live that needs looking after
A monthly block of hours for improvements, fixes and the small requests that otherwise wait months. Unused hours carry for a quarter.
Technology
We usually pair a fast marketing and pricing site, often Next.js or WordPress, with a hosted billing platform such as Stripe Billing or Chargebee and GoCardless for Direct Debit. Where your rules are unusual, we build the billing logic as custom software on Laravel or Node.

The public pricing and sign up site, the billing setup and the customer account area.
For a Birmingham vendor that normally means a marketing site with plan pages, a checkout or quote acceptance flow, recurring billing with card and Direct Debit, VAT invoices, dunning, and an account area where customers change plans and download invoices. We also connect your product so it knows each customer's limits, and your accounting software so finance sees revenue without exports. We do not rebuild the inventory product itself unless you ask us to.
