Service to Restrict access to application and charge the end users as per usage. Online Billing

Once application is created the URL is open to public and can be accessed by anyone, This may lead to unnecessary charging to the developer's credit card who created the application and someone may misuse to increase the usage without paying for it.

Service should be provided like AWS Devpay, which will allow developers to manage end users and the billing for usage of application to end users.

This will help developer to get paid for his idea.

This is must for success of the platform.

    Thanks for your suggestion Niranjan. We're reviewing this requirement for capping and managing application capacity as well as usage.
